Feel fortunate they had availability in this gorgeous hotel! I loved being a bit removed, but not far at all, from central Edinburgh. Breakfast was always lovely and fresh. Staff is super friendly and helpful.

This location was perfect for my trip. Emily who worked in the bar made sure that for the nights I was there I had a cold Diet Coke in the Cooler. I came in was super tired and she offered to take my order and bring it up to my room so I could relax. She also made me a rum old fashion to perfection. All of the staff was so nice and always answered my questions they did not make me feel like I was bothering them. Also this location is located a block away from shopping in Stockbridge and on Sundays there is a Farmers Market right behind the hotel. My room was amazing so cute and super clean. I would highly recommend a stay at this location. Thank for a wonderful stay.

We stayed for 5 days while enjoying Edinburgh and the surrounding country. The Nira Caledonia was fantastic. We stayed in the jacuzzi suite and took full advantage of this. No better way to relax from the hills of Edinburgh than a good soak. The room was well furnished and very comfortable. The linens were great and both bed and bath had no complaints. The suite we stayed in was in a separate building and on the second floor with no elevator service. This was not a problem for us. We also had breakfast included in our fare and was very surprised by the offerings. Continental and hot meals were available which were all fantastic. We also had dinner here at "Blackwoods". The food was delicious, the drink options were great and the staff was amazing. The PB&J drink was a hit with my wife. And the black pudding appetizer is worth a try. The location is remarkably quiet and we didn't have any real other noise issues at all. Felt very private and personal. Access to the city is just steps away. If you are willing to walk, the royal mile is just 1 easy mile away. The house keeping service is also worth calling out as they kept our room spotless and all in-room items refilled daily. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting looking for something just off the beaten path, but close to everything.

This is an amazing stay for me for 3 nights ! The room is clean and cozy yes I did have to climb to the third floor but the hotel has explained why there wasn’t an elevator. The breakfast is delicious and abundant- you can order from the menu and enjoy the spread they set up by the bar . I could get used to this life !! Thank you !

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.

The breakfast was amazing. The staff helped us very quickly with anything we needed. We loved our room and it had everything we needed. It was 2 floors up and they helped us with our luggage when checking in and checking out.

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

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 !!

Great spot a little out of the main area but lovely nonetheless! We were on the top floor so be aware without a lift it is quite the effort to get luggage up the stairs. Breakfast was lovely and all the staff were friendly

Lovely suite room at the rear of the hotel with sitting area and not overlooked. Very special in the centre of the city. Would return .

Lovely hotel, excellent staff. The hotel contacted us prior to our arrival to check our estimated arrival time…. I don’t think the reception desk is manned full time, so this is a smart way to ensure there is someone there to meet you. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Our room was on the very top floor so it was quite a climb, however the offer to help with luggage was there. Being an old building, there’s no lift, so this isn’t the place for you if you have mobility issues! We arrived slightly early and fortunately our room was ready, so we were able to check in right away. The room was clean and spacious- the sofa bed for our 12 year old was already made up. L’Occitane toiletries in the bathroom were a lovely touch, plus bottled water in the fridge too. Coffee machine, kettle, biscuits etc all there for us. The bathroom was clean and modern, with lovely fluffy towels. Surprisingly there was housekeeping even though we were only there for 2 nights. Breakfast was really nice….. a buffet style continental plus cooked options made fresh to order. Everything was lovely and well presented. Again the staff in the breakfast room were lovely. We received a message before we left asking for our approximate departure time, again I assume to ensure the desk was manned. Very smooth checkout process. We were able to leave our luggage to enable us to explore the city on our last day without carting bulky cases around with us. Would absolutely recommend.
