The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

The staff is very helpful and friendly, the restaurant is great, the concierge gave us a great tip for a restaurant to go to and made last minute reservations, it is centrally located to many great spots, and is about a 15 minute walk to the Royal Mile. Loved staying here, and I would love to do it again if I ever to back to Edinburgh.

Stunning hotel. Location is excellent in the heart of Edinburgh with great views over looking the castle. Room was very tasteful and well furnished with lots of amenities. Particular favourite was the low lit bar in the evening for pre-dinner drinks. The stay was for a birthday and the staff were so warm and friendly. Every single person made a big effort with guests right from check in to breakfast service.

It's not very often you walk into a hotel room and actually experience your jaw dropping but that is exactly what happened when we walked into room 306 at The Caledonian. To begin with, the room is massive and gorgeously furnished. Looking out the window we were greeted by a castle-front view of Edinburgh Castle. It was front and center and directly across the road from us and it literally took my breath away. I've stayed in some rooms with some beautiful views all around the world but I've never stayed in a room where I could see an actual massive castle from my bed. The bathroom was similarly stunning. The huge tub was perfection after a day of climbing Edinburgh's legendary hills. The floor was even heated! The in-room coffee was lovely, and the chocolate carving of the hotel that was on our table was the pièce de résistance. Of course, the service throughout the hotel was top notch. The valets, the front desk staff (shout out to Amy), the restaurant staff, all of them were excellent. The evening cocktails were divine and the breakfast was delicious. I cannot wait to visit Edinburgh again so I can stay at The Caledonian (I'm afraid I might be spoiled and need room 306 again next time, though!)

Having stayed in this hotel several times now, I can safely say it's excellent. The staff are always extremely friendly, the food is great, the facilities are excellent, and should you have a cocktail, they are excellent as well. They are currently doing renovations to the main lifts, and one of the bar areas, but there is still a lift, and bar and restaurant which has lovely live music on our visit.

The location is very convenient for me and the atmosphere is welcoming,I went to the Court to have some coffee and even the place is very busy staff always have a welcoming attitude and a smile on their faces,and my hot chocolate is delivered quick as well despite the business of the place,thank you for the staff on shift : Analine,Lukaz,Damien and Ashia.Well done Guys
