The Balmoral

Check in 3pm | Check out 12pm

The Balmoral has found a home at Edinburgh’s most prestigious address, No. 1 Princes Street. Set in the heart of Scotland’s capital city, The Balmoral combines stunning views and warm hospitality with world-class facilities to create the perfect urban retreat. Standing proud since 1902, the historic building’s majestic clock tower still dominates the Edinburgh skyline. Its clock is set precisely three minutes fast, to ensure residents never miss their train. In fact, the only day the clock is set correctly is Hogmanay for the city’s New Year celebrations. You can relax in the elegance of the Palm Court for afternoon tea, enjoy a wide variety of Scottish whiskies in the Scotch, before sampling fine French cuisine in the Brasserie Prince or Scottish cuisine in the ‘Number One’, the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant.

The Balmoral Hotel. A historic baroque-style building with a prominent clock tower, detailed stone facades, several flags, and clear blue skies in the background now serves as a luxury hotel.
