Breakfast and stuff were out of this world, the best service ever. The hotel is very beautiful and authentic with the vibes of Edinburgh. Free coffee to go, free wi-fi, 1 minute away from a bus stop. There was no EU socket in the room, but the lovely receptionist happily provided us with 2 adapters and we were saved :)

My son Max and I had a magical stay at The Balmoral. The staff were just wonderful. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay extra special for Max (age 9). Our trip to Edinburgh was a special treat because he's a huge Harry Potter fan. He absolutely loved Edinburgh and all it's Potter lore but the stay in the Balmoral was by far the highlight of his trip because of how kind everyone was to us (as well as it being a beautiful luxurious hotel of course).

    Such a great place to stay I'm Edinburgh. So very handy to everything for this first time visitor to Scotland. Even though they were having operational issues with their lift service, the staff were incredibly obliging in helping me with my luggage to and from the apartment and also looked after my belongings while spending my last day in Edinburgh. I shall definitely make sure to book there again on my next visit.

    Everything was perfect. The hotel was super clean, we got upgraded to a room with balcony, the food was delicious, the pool was very nice and the staff was really helpful and welcoming. I paid a birthday package for my boyfriend and it was absolutely perfect. I was not sure when booking if it was worth it to pay that much for a room, but it totally was.

    Great place for a family vacation, indoor pool area and gardens was fantastic for the little one. Breakfast was great. Location is the best part, close to the airport (but not close enough to hear anything), close to the city and just far enough to enjoy nice country side and easy to escape to further away attractions.

    Great City. The castle is a must see.

    Great City. The castle is a must see. Lots of different buildings, plenty of information, and fantastic views of the city. Went on two open-topped bus trips. One around the city - would highly recommend the red bus tour. Also did the blue bus one that went past the Royal Yacht Britannia. We got off and bought tickets for the tour (you get a discount by showing your tour bus ticket). So much to see! We needed longer but had to get back for a commitment. Luckily you can go on line and use the yacht ticket for a year. Hoping to come back and spend more time on the yacht and see other great attractions.

    Livingston is a quaint, calm neighbourhood. Although not easy to access an Uber, there are bus stops if you walk a few minutes, and Livingston North train station is of course a stop for the different rail services. We walked for about 15-20 mins to get to a station. Save the number of taxi operators ahead of your trip, if you're travelling with lots of luggage and want convenient drop offs and pick ups from/to your space in Livingston.

    While I found the room itself comfortable and well-presented, unfortunately, the overall experience was significantly impacted by a series of distressing events. During the night, there were repeated electricity outages which triggered alarms multiple times. This culminated in the arrival of firefighters at my room—an unexpected and unsettling experience. To add to the concern, there was no staff present at the reception during this time, which left me feeling quite unsafe and unsupported. To date, I have not received any form of apology, explanation, or gesture of goodwill from your team. I believe a situation like this warrants not only a sincere apology but also a degree of accountability and customer care, especially considering the level of disruption and concern caused.

    Lovely little place with many quirky little shops and overlooked Lodge Grounds, which is a huge park-like space for walking, admiring gage aviary and many beautiful planted areas, and has a children’s play area. Most people head straight for the beach, but other attractions such as the museum and Seabird Centre, Berwick Law and sports centre, all well worth a visit. Parking can be a problem, but at the moment there is a free car park at the end of the High Street.
