1. The Balmoral is one of those grand Victorian railway hotels that somehow got grander with age. It's a five-star Rocco Forte property right on Princes Street, all turrets and chandeliers inside, with castle views from the better rooms. The kilted doormen are not ironic. Afternoon tea in the Palm Court is the move if you want to feel like you briefly live here, which, at these prices, you technically do.
