Property Description
A luxury hotel in the true sense of the word, Rocco Forte Hotels' Balmoral, with its majestic clock tower, is a stylish five-star property in the very heart of Edinburgh. While many Edinburgh hotels claim to have Edinburgh's landmarks on their doorstep, few can say their doorstep is a landmark. 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 striking distance of many Edinburgh attractions. Edinburgh International Airport is just 25 minutes by car from the hotel, and its convenient location makes The Balmoral the ideal hotel accommodation in Edinburgh from which to enjoy the many events held in the city, including the Edinburgh Festival. The Balmoral offers 188 opulent suites and stylish rooms with views towards Edinburgh Castle, the Old Town, or the hotel's internal courtyard. All the bedrooms were fully refurbished in the hotel's recent £7 million refurbishment programme. The refurbishment also included The Balmoral's signature conference and banqueting suite, the Sir Walter Scott Suite, as well as seven further conference and banqueting suites, Hadrian's Brasserie, number one restaurant and the hotel lobby. 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 restaurant with outstanding cuisine provided by Chef Jeff Bland; Hadrian's for chic and informal dining; Palm Court for cocktails or traditional afternoon tea and NB's Bar for a relaxing drink with live entertainment. For the ultimate in relaxation, the Balmoral Spa is an exclusive retreat in the heart of the city. Voted the 'Best UK Urban Day Spa' in Condι Nast Traveller's 2005 Readers' Spa Awards, it offers five treatment rooms, a swimming pool, sauna, steam room, gymnasium and exercise studio. The Balmoral is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World. As of 26th March 2006, The Balmoral will be fully non-smoking in accordance with the smoking ban that has been passed by The Scottish Parliament, with the exception of pre-reserved, specially-allocated smoking bedrooms. www.roccofortehotels.com
