This is my second day at the Lord Balfour before they added the new section. It was impeccably clean and the staff were very attentive and friendly. Experience the ultimate in luxury at this remarkable boutique hotel, boasting breathtaking rooftop views, an unwavering commitment to cleanliness, and a passion for culinary excellence. The recent addition of a pool area provides guests with unmatched options for relaxation, further enhancing the already exceptional guest experience. Having experienced the hotel's exceptional service once before, I eagerly anticipate my third visit, where I can indulge in all the new amenities and luxuries, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
