It is a tough location for valet parking drop off. But once achieved every else makes it more than worthwhile. Lovely restaurants and bars, beautiful rooms and a fabulous pool. More especially was the quintessentially Scottish hospitality and graciousness from Alan at the door, Luke at the desk, Ryan at the bar and Keith, Matthew and Brendan around our table. All great ambassadors for company and country. A great stay!

The Balmoral is a beautiful hotel! Its location is perfect since it’s close to all major attractions. The staff are accommodating and helpful. I’ve stayed in two different rooms and both were lovely and had great views. The restaurant is very good and the high tea in the Palm Court is superb!
