This is a charming hotel with about a 15 minute walk to Princes Street. The room was lovely, the breakfast delicious, and the staff friendly. The only word of warning - there is no elevator so be aware before you book. We had to climb 64 stairs to get to our room, which could be challenging after a full day of sightseeing.

Beautiful hotel, quiet area but close to centre

I recently stayed at Nira Caledonia in Edinburgh, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The check-in process was incredibly smooth, and even though we arrived at 10am, the staff kindly held onto our bags so we could explore the city. They even messaged us when our room was ready, which was a few hours before the usual check-in time. The room itself, complete with a hot tub, was beautifully decorated and felt incredibly cosy. It was the perfect spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. We also requested additional coffee pods the next day, and to our surprise, they didn't charge us and gave us six extra pods – a lovely touch that truly reflected their hospitality. The breakfast was another highlight. It was cooked to perfection and offered incredible value for money. The entire stay was made even more special by the genuine warmth and attentiveness of the staff. I couldn't recommend Nira Caledonia highly enough. From the excellent service to the stunning room and delicious breakfast, it truly made our time in Edinburgh memorable.

Her warm demeanor made us feel right at home, and she went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. We’d highly recommend Nira Caledonia to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Edinburgh!

Disappointing and not really grand

We booked a Townhouse Grand room for 1 night. Having looked at the photos online, the reality was a disappointment. Furniture was scratched and shabby but the main issue was the shower. I can live with a bathroom being small, but this was cramped, with an over bath shower that both my husband and myself struggled to get into and out of ; it was so high! I am only 5 feet tall and my husband has arthritis so clambering in and out verged on the dangerous! The shower itself was a huge let-down. It looks very fancy with a variety of "jets" but the actual water flow was a bit pathetic, not at all invigorating. Also, the bathroom light switch was literally dangling from its backing plate. We mentioned all of these concerns to the young man at reception and asked for a change of room. He was politely disinterested and told us all the rooms were full but that he'd ask an electrician to look at the dangling switch next morning ( when we were due to leave)! On the plus side, the location was quiet, the room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, the towels were very fluffy, the breakfast staff were pleasant, the cooked breakfast was nice and the building itself is beautiful. When we checked out, the young lady at reception did not ask about our stay but brightly told us to enjoy the rest of our day. Finally, parking nearby on weekdays is a bit of a nightmare at £4.50 per hour and wardens seem to be plentiful, probably standard for Edinburgh. So, a treat that wasn't really.
