Beautiful, quaint historic hotel
Walkable to many Edinburgh attractions
Respectful, professional, friendly staff
Can get a room with lg jacuzzi tub
Delicious breakfasts
Quaint, cozy restaurant and bar onsite
Only drawbacks:
No air conditioning due to it being historic bldg
No lifts, have to be fit enough to climb stairs to room. (There were 47 steps up to ours)
Lovely stay
Very comfortable room and the hotel is in a great location - quiet but easy access to restaurants and town.
Only downside was the hotel restaurant was closed during our stay although breakfast was excellent.
I booked Nira Caledonia looking for a luxury experience in Edinburgh. I reserved 2 rooms for a 4-night stay, which cost over $3,400 USD. While I want to be fair and say that the staff members themselves were very nice and highly professional, excellent hospitality cannot make up for the fact that I have never been more uncomfortable or miserable in my life.
There is absolutely no air conditioning. We were placed on the 3rd floor, where the heat rises and pools, making the rooms feel like an actual oven. To make matters worse, you are completely locked into the suffocating heat because the hotel does not allow you to open the windows. I was told this policy is because someone unfortunately jumped from a window once in the past. As a result, you are trapped in a hot room with zero chance of getting a cross breeze or any cooler air at night. The staff provided a fan, but it did nothing but push around hot, stagnant air. This isn't luxury; it was pure torture. With temperatures rising in Europe every single year, this issue is only going to get worse. I will never stay here again.
On top of the heat issue, the housekeeping staff took a stack of our personal green washcloths from one of the rooms. They were neatly folded and clean. The hotel's towels are white, and they don't even provide washcloths, so there is no reason they should have been cleared out. While management initially told me I would be refunded for the missing items, I didn't actually see a dime of that refund until I had to go over their heads and write to corporate to complain that the promise was never fulfilled.
In some ways, this hotel lived up to expectations: premium L'Occitane products, interesting decor, excellent breakfast, helpful staff. In one critical way it did not. The website describes an elegant Georgian townhome with tall windows and ceilings. When we entered the foyer of the building, we were excited to see our room. We had been in Scotland for over a week and experienced a range of accommodations: attic room in Balmaha, "vintage" room in Ballater, modern apartments in Glasgow and Stirling. We were looking forward to renovated elegance. But instead of heading up the stairs to an airy Georgian townhome room, we were led into the basement. Beware: you can pay a premium price at Nira Caledonia and receive a bunkerlike room with low ceilings, stained carpeting, and a window that looks out into a stairwell. I didn't expect AC or a lift. I can even understand no hot water in the sink and a sofa bed with subpar mattress. But a basement room? I might as well have been at the Moxy out by the airport.
Beautiful building in a superb location. Staff were all excellent including the restaurant
A few issues with the room that couldn’t be resolved as maintenance staff weren’t there. Plug sockets by the bed didn’t work, the knob on the shower would fall off, fan extremely noisy and windows weren’t easy to open so it was very warm. Limited menu and the steak ran out which left it really really limited
Spacious rooms decorated very well. Comfortable bed with nice sheets. On the edge of a lively, non-touristy neighborhood. Quiet and elegant.
Atencion , ubicación
Excellent breakfast and dinner options.
No lift so required very long and difficult stairs to room. Dining room offers, good breakfast and dinners, but for some reason, the dining room is very dark, making it almost impossible to even read a menu.
Fantastic staff, gorgeous rooms and location. as a solo traveller I felt secure and relaxed with this accomodation
Amazing staff, great room, wonderful location. Breakfast was excellent!!!
Nothing, couldn't recommend it enough
Great location, within 5 minutes of the shops & 10 minutes (walk) of the Royal Mile. Lovely rooms (clean, spacious, with a view out onto the street). The staff were awesome, very friendly & happy to help with any questions.
The water pressure in the bathroom wasn’t great. Only stayed for 1 night so it wasn’t a massive drama.
Location was great and the breakfast was excellent
Room was very small and too warm. We had an issue with the shower. It was fixed promptly but a bit of flooding.
