Welcome to Balmoral

Balmoral With a long tradition of excellent hospitality since 1902 and a landmark address in the city, the Balmoral has 188 rooms over 6 floors, of which 20 are suites and 168 are doubles. Located beside Waverley Station, the main railway terminus in Edinburgh, this was built originally as the North British Hotel for the railway company which used Waverley. The clock is traditionally kept two minutes fast to ensure that tardy travellers hurry up and catch their train. Today it offers elegant dining and drawing rooms complete with marble pillars, chandeliers and ornate cornicing. **Location** Located on Princes Street, in Edinburgh's main shopping area and next to Waverley Station, The Balmoral is close to the leading luxury department stores and within walking distance of many Edinburgh attractions and offers a beautiful view over Edinburgh castle. **Rooms** The luxuriously appointed rooms are fitted with an en suite bathroom, hairdryer, telephone, satellite/ cable TV, mini-bar, Internet access, central heating and safe. **Recreation** The Balmoral Spa is the ultimate urban spa experience. A retreat in the heart of the city, it offers a sanctuary of personal comfort and total escapism, with the highest levels of personalised service, and was recently voted Top UK Business Hotel outside of London at the Condé Nast Traveller¿s Readers¿ Travel Awards 2011. Facilities include a Finnish sauna and Turkish steam room, 15-metre crystal-clear pool, air-conditioned fully equipped cardiovascular gymnasium and exercise room. **Meals** When it comes to fine-dining, the choice of restaurants at The Balmoral matches the mood of the moment. With attentive but non-intrusive service, guests can choose from the hotel's Michelin-starred Number One fine dining restaurant with outstanding cuisine provided by Chef Jeff Bland; Hadrian's for chic and informal dining; Palm Court for traditional afternoon tea or its very own Bollinger Bar. The newly refurbished and stylish Balmoral Bar is perfect for a relaxing cocktail or traditional whisky. **Additional information** Check in is at 14h; check out at 12h. Weddings can also be arranged in the hotel.
