Benefits that just get better with each reservation
Benefits that just get better with each reservation
One of the high points of our partnership with the hotels invited to join our Collection is the exclusive benefits they are willing to offer to our members. And these benefits just get better with each reservation you make! On your first booking with us, this means the best room in the category you choose, and a room upgrade subject to availability.

Grand Luxury is a collection of 450 exceptional hotels across the globe, but how do we choose these addresses that we recommend? We do it through an in-depth analysis of every property, and demanding quality controls and evaluations by our founders themselves, Ivan and Rouslan Lartisien, with nothing but excellence in mind. The Collection is also reviewed every year and only the hotels that our members systematically rate ‘Remarkable' are retained.

Arrive at The Balmoral Hotel on any given day and the first thing you’ll notice is its glorious clock tower that’s never quite on time.
This irregularity (or calculated miscalculation as the locals call it) is a historical quirk as legendary as the hotel itself and dates back to 1902 when The Balmoral was built as a grand railway hotel, and its turret clock was set three minutes fast to make...

Everything was excellent. I felt that I was just in a proper well run hotel. The only thing I could not do was book the pool and gym but that was not their fault. I booked late and it is the rules at the moment. Hopefully when I return this will have changed.

Fantastic experience staying in the Balmoral. Not just a hotel but a part of Edinburgh’s history and a truly beautiful place to spend a night!

OK experience- not sure the quality of the room deserved the price tag - slightly alarmed that I had 5 pending transactions on my credit card when only 1 was needed. Fortunately only the correct amount has been added to my bill. Staff friendly. Facilities in communal areas somewhat Spartan and unwelcoming

We had a wonderful time at the Balmoral. We loved the venue in general and the room was lovely. The attention to detail to make this a good experience for young children as well was really appreciated. I am putting 4 stars instead of 5 as the following 2 points could be improved: - Brasserie: service was very slow in the morning. We asked 4 times for some gluten free toast for my wife and it never came. That was disappointing. - Spa: we understand that these are still pandemic times. But 25min windows for the pool, especially with kids, is not satisfactory.
