This hotel was AMAZING. From the beautifully decorated rooms to the amazing meals, this hotel cannot be beat. The people that worked there were charming, friendly and made us feel at home from the moment we checked in. There are no words to describe how amazing the food was, whether it was breakfast, shared plates, or an elegantly prepared dinner the food was so delicious. On a scale of 1 to 10 the Nira Caledonia gets a 100 !!

The staff very friendly, polite and helpful. The hotel itself is just far enough away from the crowds, in a beautiful part of the city and is a very pleasant walk to the main areas of the Edinburgh city centre. The room was well presented and was immaculate. 10 out of 10 and we plan to return in December

Lovely hotel with character. Staff friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast with great choice. Stayed in a wee double but had plenty of room. Just be aware no lift and 3 flights of stairs which wouldn’t suit anyone with mobility issues. Pleasant walk into old town. Would stay again.

The room and amenities and view and building and staff were all lovely. Very luxurious feeling hotel. Breakfast was delicious and there were plenty vegetarian options. The only downside is there's no lift/elevator and 47 plus stairs is a bit much for me but if you have no mobility issues 100 out of 10 would definitely recommend

Beautiful room and comfy bed. Great location, close to transportation. Quiet neighborhood. The walls are a little thin and other guests let their doors slam, but not after 8pm. It is an old building. The hotel was thorough in communicating that there is no air or lifts. Even with that, the windows opened and the stairs weren’t that bad. I enjoyed my stay.
