My son Max and I had a magical stay at The Balmoral. The staff were just wonderful. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay extra special for Max (age 9). Our trip to Edinburgh was a special treat because he's a huge Harry Potter fan. He absolutely loved Edinburgh and all it's Potter lore but the stay in the Balmoral was by far the highlight of his trip because of how kind everyone was to us (as well as it being a beautiful luxurious hotel of course).

Beautiful apartment in a lovely part of Edinburgh. Had everything you could possibly need, rooms were large and well equipped, living room in particular was beautifully decorated and huge. High ceilings throughout and added bonus of the garden. Highly recommend and would gladly stay again.
