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
Service and luxury comfort
Our room view was absolutely stunning and the room itself comfortable and appointed with luxury touches. The staff were the best feature of the hotel. The doormen and bar staff stood out especially delightful Damian and magnificently mustached Magnus 😁

Wonderful, relaxing and friendly.
Stayed here for my partners birthday and the room we were upgraded to was stunning. Wonderful views, so spacious and luxurious bathroom. All staff were very friendly and polite but the girl called Amy who works on reception has to be mentioned as she went above and beyond to make our stay something special. Many thanks to her.

Amazing stay
I went with my family to Edinburgh and chose the Caldonian for its superb staff and location. We were welcomed at the reception by Emma and she was so welcoming and nice that we started off our holiday in the best way. Michael and Mark accompanied us to our room and brought our luggage for us which was super nice! They were also very welcoming and kind! Our room was super clean and well kept, Angelika from housekeeping made sure that everything was perfect and the room was really up to the standard of a 5 stars hotel so thank you for that and thank you for the cozy and perfect turndown service. At breakfast Louise showed us where everything was, they even had a Bloody Mary station! Louise was so kind which made for a perfect start of the morning! The breakfast buffet was also unbelievable!!! In the afternoon Ellis from the bar welcomed us by making our favorite drinks. He was so nice he chatted with us and gave us recommendation for sight seeing! Thank you Caledonian for the really perfect holiday, you rooms and your staff are incredible!
