The Balmoral Hotel features Victorian architecture and modern-day Olga Polizzi glory. This hotel and landmark rekindle the Renaissance splendor back to life. This stunning property is a part of the Rocco Forte hotels. It occupies the city's top slots for exotic getaways. The luxury hotel is also an enhancement to the historic city of Edinburgh in a somewhat timeless demeanor.
It serves its guests with a taste of perennial eminence in its splendid guest rooms, citing the Old Town and also Arthur's Seat. Moreover, the hotel has remarkable views of Edinburgh Castle. It endorses the staple countryside heritage, heartwarming hospitality, and courtesy. This lets guests indulge in an authentic taste of the Scottish heritage.
The Balmoral Hotel has stood unabated for over a century as the emblem of Scottish fine arts. It has a Grand Clock tower dominating the town's skyline. The property sits in the city's heart at the east of Princes Street. Therefore, the hotel is the perfect place for guests seeking the best Scottish ambiance.
A staple for the luminaries, the hotel came into life in 1895. It was molded by renowned architects of their time. The hotel's architecture brought together a hybrid of ancient Victorian architecture and splendor, paying homage to the much-acclaimed Renaissance era. The North British Railway Company then owned the hotel. Along with that, its clock was set 3 minutes fast so that people didn't miss out on catching their train.
The only day that the clock's time was accurate was the 31st of December (Hogmanay), when the city prepared for the New Year's festivities. However, J K Rowling added to the hotel's heritage more recently. She did so by leaving a note on a marble bust of Hermes in her room. The letter said, "JK Rowling finished writing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in this room (552) on the 11th of January 2007".
A stay at the Balmoral Hotel is nothing short of a memorable event with stunning views surrounding the vicinity. The escapade is set in stone just around the corner by the Waverley station.
