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.

The best experience, treated like royalty and made my birthday trip simply amazing. The staff are simply superb and look after your every need. Breakfast is first class and the new CB bar is superb, they even play vinyl records!!

We had a 4-night stay at the Caledonian hotel and were more than impressed by the top-notch service we encountered. May it be Ria-Anne from the front desk that gave us the most amazing upgrade and the loveliest smile as well as Luckasz from the Court, everyone we met was just exceptional. Thanks as well to Shiva, Helen, Heather, Emilie to name a few. More team members impacted our stay but unfortunately did not catch their names. If you are looking for a hotel in Edinburgh, THIS IS THE ONE !

Great hotel! Excellent location across from Edinburgh Castle. Our room was lovely and very comfortable. Very clean and the mattress and pillows were really good. It's a small thing but having iphone plugs in the outlets is so helpful to travelers. The hotel itself is a beautiful building with very friendly staff. The restaurant served a really nice breakfast buffet and lovely dinner at night. We highly recommend!

We had a very nice time at the spa. It was very clean and with a very calm atmosphere. I really liked too the changing rooms and Jessica, who showed us around, was very nice and helpful 😊
