One of Edinburgh’s most recognisable landmarks, The Balmoral occupies a commanding position at 1 Princes Street, where its iconic clock tower has defined the city’s skyline since 1902.
Interiors designed by Olga Polizzi draw on the Scottish landscape throughout, with bespoke Balmoral tartan, Hebridean blues and heather hues setting the tone for rooms and suites that feel distinctly and deliberately Scottish.
The dining offering spans five venues, from the 4 AA Rosette Scottish cuisine of Number One to the French-Scottish bistro fare of Brasserie Prince and the award-winning afternoon tea at Palm Court. SCOTCH, the hotel’s whisky bar, stocks over 500 Scottish malts.
The Irene Forte Spa brings a wellness offering rooted in natural, Italian-made products, while the hotel’s position looking up to Edinburgh Castle places guests at the meeting point of the Old Town and New Town, as central an address as Edinburgh offers.
