I have just returned from a weekend stay at the Balmoral and am truly impressed by the hotel. From the minute you arrive the standard of service from all staff is exceptional. Quite how certain members of staff remembered our names when the hotel was so busy was beyond me.
This is very much a traditional hotel and is reflected in the rooms that are styled as such. The only minor disappointment was the lack of tea & coffee making facilities, perhaps I missed where they were.
We were on a bed and breakfast basis, again a slight criticism that the tables at breakfast I felt were a little close together and I had to 'shimmy' past the table next to me to get in and out. I am reasonably slim, others' may have struggled or perhaps that is assessed when you are offered a table lol !! That does not detract from what was a superb choice of breakfast items with pretty much anything not displayed being available on request. We ordered omelettes and they were beautifully made and served promptly to our table.
In summary, The Balmoral is an outstanding hotel with fantastic staff who cannot do enough for the guests. We will, without a doubt visit this great hotel again.

“ Room was quite small for 5 star hotel and decor could have been a little more plush. Buffet self service for hot cooked breakfast which i dod not like as i prefer freshly cooked and hot. Windows did not work in room so fan was provided. Everything else though was fantastice - staff excellent and restaurants very good.
“ Top Tip: Thai restaurant on Thistle Street (ask reception for name) excellent food but you usually have to book in advance as so popular
