A lovely hotel, it doesn't look like much from the outside but the room we were in was very nice, high ceilings, a view of the water and the main pier from the bed, furniture in a pleasant classic style complemented the room. The bathroom was standard and clean. In the evening it was lovely to sit in the armchairs with a view. I highly recommend it.

I stayed at the Balmoral Hotel whilst attending an all-day event at the BIC. The location could not be more convenient, just a 4 minute walk away, which I really appreciated, as I was able to pop back during the day. The hotel rooms are basic and my single room was quite small, however, it was clean and functional, which was all I needed, with a lovely view of the sea. The owner of the hotel, Dave, could not have been more helpful or accommodating - nothing was too much trouble - and I particularly enjoyed my chat with him about succulent plants! He went above and beyond to ensure I enjoyed my stay there. I would definitely stay at the Balmoral again if I was to attend another event at the BIC.

Does the job for a night.

The bed wasn't the comfiest or cleanest. Parking was awkward as you had to ask at reception to be let in/out. Fine for a night if you are out drinking. Close to everything but the hill to walk up is a killer.
