Edinburgh is filled with fascinating monuments to Scotland’s glorious past. Once known as ‘The Athens of the North’, the city has an incredible array of world-class museums, grand architecture and exciting art galleries to explore. The Balmoral has been a city landmark since 1902 and has unrivalled views across the iconic skyline, filled with splendid facades and styles.
The dedicated concierge team at The Balmoral are perfectly placed to bring the city alive for guests. From exploring the oldest crown jewels in Europe and the near-mythical Stone of Destiny at Edinburgh Castle to walking in the footsteps of royalty at Holyrood Palace and experiencing the winding lanes of the medieval Old Town, the city is brimming with experiences waiting to be had.
