Reviews and Ratings
My stay at The Balmoral was truly amazing, with standout features like the luxurious accommodations and friendly, attentive staff. However, I encountered a couple of minor disappointments regarding the breakfast options, which at times felt overpriced for the quality. Overall, the experience was overwhelmingly positive, making it a place I would highly recommend.
My stay at The Balmoral Hotel was truly luxurious. The location was unbeatable, right near the main train station and both Old and New Town, making it easy to explore Edinburgh. The only downside was the confusing shower setup in my room, which made using it quite tricky. Overall, I had a nice experience, thanks to the attentive staff and the well-appointed accommodations.
I had a wonderful stay at The Balmoral, with its prime location just minutes from Waverley Station. The staff were really good, making my friend and I feel truly welcomed. While the room was lovely and spacious, the spa facilities left something to be desired, reminding me that luxury requires consistency. Overall, I would certainly return, especially at the offer price! 😊
My stay at The Balmoral Hotel was nothing short of magical. The opulence of the hotel, paired with the friendly and attentive staff, made me feel like royalty. The only downside was that my stay felt too short (I wished I could have lingered longer!). Overall, the experience was good and I loved every moment.
