Refurbished in November 2005, this family run hotel offers a prime location and value for money in the heart of the city. Located just off Princes Street, the city's shopping hub, you are a short stroll from Edinburgh's main attractions. The National Gallery of Scotland is just around the corner, which houses paintings and sculpture from Renaissance to Post-Impressionism periods. The gallery features art by Botticelli, Goya and Rembrandt to name but a few. Visit the castle, and make up your own mind about the controversial Holyrood parliament building. The grade A listed Georgian Ballantrae Hotel offers more traditional delights, with high ceilings and spacious rooms featuring period details. Here, you will find elegant accommodation full of character, where a balance is struck between history and modern comforts. The hotel offers 24 hour reception cover for your comfort and security.
