The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

What a beautiful hotel. Service was excellent and the staff were all happy to help with anything you need. The gym and spa are amazing. Breakfast is fantastic. Location is excellent. Rooms very comfortable and it was very quiet despite all of the rooms. Highly recommend.

Had stayed before and hadn’t particularly enjoyed the experience. Hilton have taken it on and improved it. Hotel is large and well decorated. Food was excellent with a special mention to the breakfast which is held in a busy bistro but is very enjoyable. Used the steam room and it was small and kind of stuck in a corner but was very powerful. Our room was excellent, good size and small dressing area. Great view of castle. Bed was so comfy. Bathroom had combined shower and bath which I’m not a massive fan of. Only downside with room facing castle is the noise from outside. I guess in an old building on a main road it’s difficult to stop it. Service was good, concierge service excellent. Disappointed with multiple service charges for room service when the also add a tip. Feels unnecessary. Would stay again no problems.

We had a wonderful two night stay in the Caledonian. It started with a warm welcome from Amy on reception before we were directed to our room (350) which was lovely. The most spacious bedroom and bathroom which had recently been refurbished. Perfect. All staff we encountered were delightful; the doormen,reception,bar and housekeeping. A great team. So looking forward to return!

We enjoyed everything about this hotel. Staff all friendly and tremendously attentive. Room was extraordinarily spacious and quiet with large windows and high ceiling. Bathroom huge as well, separate tub and shower, heated towel rack. We booked the included breakfast which was excellent, with table service from a varied menu as well as an extensive buffet. Concierge recommended and booked dinner at Hawksmoor, as well as taxi there. As an example of the hotel's attention to detail and convenience, when we tried to pay for the cab the driver told us that the hotel had paid for it (I'm assuming it will appear on our final bill). Aesthetically, the architecture and decor yield repeated pleasure at every turn. The location is perfect as well. We are eager to return.

This hotel was amazing. My friends and I stayed here on a much needed break after some really tough times and the staff made us feel so welcome and at ease. The food was great, the location perfect, couldn't wish for anything more! We had a couple of issues early on in our stay but the attentive staff dealt with them so quickly they soon became a distant memory. Highly recommend if you need somewhere to stay when visiting Edinburgh. What a wonderful time away, made so special.
