About the Hotel
Important - The Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh – The Caledonian has recently been renamed to The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton. The Caledonian Edinburgh is currently undergoing renovation expected to be completed early 2025. The transformation of the hotel is already well underway and is taking place over a phased approach to ensure we can continue to operate as business as usual.
The Caledonian Edinburgh is one of Edinburgh's most significant and recognizable landmarks. Standing proudly at the west end of Princes Street, the heart of the capital, its reputation for style and excellence has attracted generations of locals, international visitors and notable personalities for over one hundred years. Built in 1903 and formerly part of the grand Caledonian Railway, the hotel is full of memories, including Peacock Alley which represents the historic heart, once the station concourse and ticket office. Surround yourself with heritage and over 100 years of hospitality, and become part of our story.

Reviews for The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton
The Palm Court.
I went to the Palm Court with some friends after lunch. We had some drinks. Our experience was made even better by the excellent service from Ellie, Rebecca and the charming manager. It’s a lovely treat to come here. We shall be back.

Magical Stay in a Castle Town
My daughter and I had an amazing stay at The Caledonian Edinburgh. From Reception and Concierge/Bellmen to Service (Dining/Bar and Rooms), the whole Caledonian Team made our stay incredibly special. Front Desk, Iman really helped us out, together with her Supervisor that day, I could kick myself that I didn't get her name, so that I could mention her too. We hope you all enjoyed the Maple Cookies haha! Dean at the front door akways greeted us back to to the hotel with a smile and kind word. We received immense assistance from the Concierge/Bellmen Desk. Jay, Stewart and Linda armed us with information, taxi reservations, maps. As well as the others who were there to help. The Dining and Bar was always top notch at every time of day. Special Mention to Lukasz. Your team seems to always go above and beyond to provide personalized service, always remaining refined and elegant. Very much appreciated! I'd like to name all of them, but we received amazing service from Damian, Lewis, Leah, Asha, Tahilia, Rebecca, Lina, Elena, to name just a few of the people you will encounter who will make your stay a Dream. The Staff here give a big hotel a small hotel feel. Can't wait to return.
