Quiet location just outside the main city. Kevin and Susan were amazing hosts. Place was wonderful. Breakfast every morning was great, and Kevin served it with a smile. They were such good hosts. Nothing negative to say.
Located in the center of Edinburgh, just a few minutes’ walk from the Royal Mile and 650 yards of The Real Mary King's Close, Market Street forms part of Edinburgh’s historic skyline.
Located on Princes Street, The Balmoral has a 4 AA Rosette restaurant, a pool and a gym. Waverley Station and Edinburgh's main shopping area are within 5 minutes' walk.
We were pleased at the location to bus stops and the cleanliness and the real cups and saucers for in room hot beverages. For the price and location, it was just lovely. We got up early and walked the quiet streets behind the guest house. The gardens were so beautiful! We even walked to the base of Arthur’s seat.
Clean and quiet- right by Arthur’s seat! Amazing Scottish breakfast buffet and great bar restaurant supper. Able to use a mini fridge. Beautiful gardens.
Reception staff were really helpful and friendly, breakfast was amazing. Really close to a bus stop that frequently goes into town and close to Arthur’s seat (we had a nice view of it from our room’s window). Laundry facilities were available and super cheap
Outstanding staff - very helpful and attentive, fantastic breakfast, beautiful grounds, lovely drawing rooms, epic views of King Arthur’s seat, highland cows. This is my favorite place.
Small kitchen with washer dryer was great. One block off the Royal Mile was perfect. Enjoyed an early morning walk up Arthur’s Seat as it was close too.
Great location close to Arthur’s Seat and Old Town. Very and very quiet. Steven was a great host and very helpful with suggestions for dining and directions.
Fantastic view of Arthur’s Seat and great location being close to the Royal Mile, grocery store and hiking. Easy communication and contact with the host. Apartment was very comfortable and clean. Really enjoyed our stay.
The spot was just far enough from town to be quiet but close to the bus and not a bad walk! Great view of Arthur’s seat! Best breakfast in Scotland!!! Will stay again! Thanks so much!
