Our main concern at the Ballantrae and Albany Hotels is the wellbeing of guests and staff. We have worked carefully to apply the Government safety guidelines, and have developed and implemented our own protocol going above and beyond what is required at both hotels to ensure that all possible Health and Safety aspects are fully covered.

We look forward to welcoming you here soon. The Ballantrae has more to offer than its great prices and convenient location. Like its city, the hotel has generations of history behind it and a lot of character. Every room is truly unique and some feature ornate windows while others have their own original fireplace.

Stayed here once and left early because the room was dirty, carpets threadbare, wallpaper peeling off the wall....shocking misrepresentation of a 4 star rated hotel, we even wrote to tourism Scotland about this place it was that bad.

The hotel was quite nice, the room was clean, spacious and comfy. The staff is nice and the breakfast is worth it, would for sure return in a next trip to Edinburgh which I hope to be not too long

Loved it, totally worn out and tired but the housekeeping was spot on, very clean and tidy.
Leaky windows, so quite cold and lots of traffic noise. Heating very poor. Room, huge.
We enjoyed our stay and location for us, perfect

Fantastic hotel and great value for money and an excellent location on the edge of the main shopping area. The staff were all very helpful and friendly, breakfast was generous and varied.
The only downside was that our room was right at the top on the 3rd floor - with no lifts! - it was 100 steps from the entrance to our room, so bear that in mind if you are not in great health when making your booking. The room was a good size and the bathroom modern and clean. Would definitely stay here again.

A nice place to stay in, the staff is very friendly and professional.
My room was a single bed en-suite room, very comfortable and clean.
The best part of my stay was without a doubt breakfast time: delicious and with a lot of choices! The Hotel is very close to the City Centre which is quite good, in ten minutes you can find yourself in the very heart of the town.
Enjoy your stay!

Despite its really good location close to everything, I cannot give a better review as I hardly slept. First, we got room 22, a cozy attic in the second building, really cute but with one of the most horrible mattresses that I had in a hotel. I have a bad back so this completely ruined my night. Next day, we asked for a room change and they moved us to the first building. Better bathroom and slightly better mattress but a really noisy room where you could hear both the busy street plus everything happening around you. Again, really poor sleep. On top of everything, the rooms seem to have never

Spent two days at this hotel. We were able to leave our bags at the hotel as we waited for check in. Your location is likely in a different building and requires you to go to a nearby building. Ours was only two buildings over. Be prepared to climb some stairs, because there are no elevators and you could be a few flights up. Being that we packed light it wasn't a problem, but I could see this being a deal breaker for those staying many nights. The room was basic - high ceiling, couch, small coffee table, tiny night stands, desk, TV, several beds, and a closet. The bathroom and sizable with a shower
