The staff were absolutely amazing! Lovely clean property, great breakfast and in a beautiful area of the city. Rooms had everything you might need with good quality toiletries in the bathroom. Rooms are bigger than those you generally find in a city too 😀

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.

A Wonderful Stay – Perfect for Our Special Trip! We had an amazing stay at Nira Caledonia. The hotel itself is beautifully designed. Everything was clean, cozy, and well-maintained. The lady at reception was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. 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.

Warm Hospitality and Prime Location" We had a wonderful stay at the Nira Caledonia Hotel. The team, including Pouya and Matt, were incredibly welcoming and warm. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and tidied up daily. The breakfast was delicious, and I highly recommend adding it to your stay. The restaurant staff, Kanrad and Nand, were attentive, friendly, and made sure all our needs were met. The hotel's location is excellent, with easy access to all of Edinburgh's top tourist attractions and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Fantastic location and reasonably priced. Parking was also very easy over the weekend, with (council) on street parking free over the weekend. A little rough around the edges. Looks good on first appearances, but could do with a bit of a once over of everything. Wallpaper was peeing off the walls, toilet roll holder not fixed into the wall properly, furniture was all chipped. This was a wee double, I have a feeling these rooms are maybe neglected over the suites/bigger rooms. For a wee double though, we thought the room was a decent size still. Just the bathroom was tiny. Our room 6/4, had a boiler or water heater in close proximity which was very noisy. Trying to have a lazy morning with the boiler going off since 7:30! Overall is nice and we had a good stay for what we needed out of a hotel (just somewhere to sleep), and was worth staying due to location, but not “luxury”.
