Families welcomed to the ‘Winter of Warmth’ at The Balmoral
The Balmoral hotel is offering a programme of experiences for families and loved ones to come together and celebrate the very best of Scotland as a new season begins. As the nights get darker, The Balmoral is offering guests respite from the bustling city streets to enjoy the ‘Winter of Warmth’.
The Balmoral has crafted a new Festive Spirit Escape, where families can embrace the twinkling lights of Scotland’s capital and discover Edinburgh’s newest shopping district, the St James Quarter. From The Kooples and Calvin Klein to Aesop and Russell & Bromley, whether it is Christmas shopping or treating yourself to a gift there is something for everyone. Family favourites, Lego and Hamleys, will provide little ones with inspiration for their letter to Santa while grown-ups can enliven their inner child ahead of the festive season and explore the shopping district with a gift card for some of the city’s finest new stores.
Families and loved ones can then come together and enjoy an innovative, bespoke familystyle banquet this festive season. Festive Gatherings is an evening that is completely tailored to diners’ tastes, delivered with a sense of theatre. You will be given the opportunity to collaborate with The Balmoral’s Executive Chef, Gary Robinson, to curate a bespoke festive menu and evening to suit every family member’s taste. As each course is served, a chef will provide a narrative on the dishes method, history and provenance. Festive Gatherings offers an elevated dining experience, with sharing plates and paired wines, featuring the finest, seasonal ingredients and produce the Scottish larder has to offer - making this year’s celebrations truly unique.
A truly magical family stay awaits in The Balmoral’s world renowned J.K. Rowling suite, named after the author completed ‘Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows’ whilst staying at The Balmoral in January 2007. Wow the little ones as you enter the suite, past the owl door knocker, and walk through the star-filled entranceway into the lounge to see the marble bust of Hermes, signed by the author in elation at finishing the final book in the Harry Potter series. The Signature Suite offers stunning views across the inspiring city, adding charm and wonder to an unforgettable family trip this festive season.
