Caledonian (Edinburgh) Reviews

Newest Review: ... The en-suite bathroom came complete with La Source/Crabtree and Evelyn toiletries in a large size (which i appropriated) and comfortable and large bath towels. The showers have great water pressure which is a blessing in a hotel. The main "lounge" area is relaxing and comes complete with a piano which is often played by a proper pianist. the castle lounge has lovely views over towards the castle and is bright, light but with a feel of being in a grand mansion house living room. Staff swish in and out and happily see to your every need without being obtrusive or off hand. The Caley Bar is very relaxing - we've been here a f... more

The Caledonian Hotel can be found in one of the prime locations in Edinburgh City Centre - on Princes Street, near the gardens (sort of), close to the shops and with a view of the castle.

Alledgedly, this hotel is the choice of such luminaries as Sean Connery and Richard Wilson when they stay in the capital - when I was there, the best we had was Gazza, which was slightly disappointing. Nevertheless, this is possibly the most glorious hotels I have ever stayed at. We didn't get one of the Castle view rooms, but I had a nosy in someone else's and the views from them are stunning. This is a big, grand, enormously classy hotel; polished doorman, huge staircases, opulent but tasteful decoration, and restaurants serving heavenly food. But there's little no edge, no discernable attitude, just a wealth of good service. Our room had ... Read the complete review
