In some ways, this hotel lived up to the expectations: premium L’Occitane products, interesting decor, excellent breakfast, helpful staff. In one critical way it did not. The website describes and 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 (on the second day) and a sofa bed with subpar mattress. But a basement room? I might as well have been at the Moxy out by the airport.

I chose this hotel because it looked so nice on the internet and because of its location, near charming Stockbridge and yet in a beautiful area. Our junior suite was very spacious with nice views of the street. The staff were friendly and helpful and we had good experiences with Jesus and especially Mac. However, just before we arrived, and after fully paid for our 5-night stay in advance, I received multiple emails and WhatsApp messages from the hotel to harass me about pre-check-in and asking me for my CC details. Having had a bad experience before and reluctant to share my CC details, I phoned the hotel to ask them to let me check in on arrival. Yet, the annoying messages still kept coming. We didn’t know until much later that, due to strict conservation rules, the hotel has no lifts and no air conditioning. We were lucky to be given a room on the 1st floor. Because of the warm weather, we had to sleep with our windows open. For the first two nights, we were woken in the very early morning by extremely loud voices coming from the reception area, right below our room. We had to email management to ask for help. In addition, on two consecutive nights, the noise from the jacuzzi in the room next door was sufficiently loud to keep us from going to sleep. The fittings and fittings in the bathroom need to be checked and replaced. For example the toilet flush needs to be fixed as it doesn’t work well. Breakfast was ok, but the service was slow.

Very nice small hotel in quiet area of town. Hotel was very quiet as it is mostly surrounded by housing in what appeared to be an upscale neighborhood while still being within walking distance of downtown and restaurants. There did not appear to be an elevator at the hotel and the stairs could be seen as a tad narrow and steep if one had mobility issues. Bathroom was large and well designed with a good sized shelf near the sink (but not over the toilet!) for setting any toiletries/bag. It also had a soaking type tub that was separate from the walk-in shower. The breakfast was very good. Highly recommend.

Bed was comfortable, location was great. They downgraded us without asking so we had a double bed rather than a king and a much smaller room. This was disappointing as the reason I booked with them was the larger bed. It was also quite hot with the heater pipe and the window only opening three inches or so.

This location was perfect for my trip. Emily who worked in the bar made sure that for the nights I was there I had a cold Diet Coke in the Cooler. I came in was super tired and she offered to take my order and bring it up to my room so I could relax. She also made me a rum old fashion to perfection. All of the staff was so nice and always answered my questions they did not make me feel like I was bothering them. Also this location is located a block away from shopping in Stockbridge and on Sundays there is a Farmers Market right behind the hotel. My room was amazing so cute and super clean. I would highly recommend a stay at this location. Thank for a wonderful stay.

Overall, I had a wonderful experience at Nira Caledonia.
The location is unbeatable if you're planning to see as much of the city as possible.
The rooms are beautiful and clean, with astonishing views, although the walls are a bit thin.
I would have given a five-star rating were it not for our, honestly, terrible experience dining at Blackwoods on the last night of our stay.
Four other travel companions and I made a reservation at Blackwoods for 7:15. Upon ordering drinks, bar snacks, and appetizers, we waited approximately 25 minutes for drinks to arrive. Not really a huge issue, but there are only 7(8?) tables in the entire restaurant. After we began to receive our drinks, our server informed us that, because of the current kitchen staffing, they would not be fulfilling our order for bar snacks. Odd, but ok.
We then proceeded to wait an hour for our appetizers.
Once we finished those and began to receive our entrees, all seemed well.
However, once we were 90% done eating, our server then informed us that the chef was \"done for the night\" and we would not be able to order dessert. Not once did the server come over and let us know that the kitchen was wrapping up service (completely fine!), and if we were interested in dessert, we should order soon. Nope - just a sorry, but you don't get dessert.
What a sour way to spend the last evening of our vacation.

We stayed for 5 days while enjoying Edinburgh and the surrounding country. The Nira Caledonia was fantastic. We stayed in the jacuzzi suite and took full advantage of this. No better way to relax from the hills of Edinburgh than a good soak. The room was well furnished and very comfortable. The linens were great and both bed and bath had no complaints. The suite we stayed in was in a separate building and on the second floor with no elevator service. This was not a problem for us. We also had breakfast included in our fare and was very surprised by the offerings. Continental and hot meals were available which were all fantastic. We also had dinner here at \"Blackwoods\". The food was delicious, the drink options were great and the staff was amazing. The PB&J drink was a hit with my wife. And the black pudding appetizer is worth a try.

The location is remarkably quiet and we didn't have any real other noise issues at all. Felt very private and personal. Access to the city is just steps away. If you are willing to walk, the royal mile is just 1 easy mile away.

The house keeping service is also worth calling out as they kept our room spotless and all in-room items refilled daily.

I would recommend this place to anyone visiting looking for something just off the beaten path, but close to everything.

The hotel itself looks very nice and makes a good first impression. The staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, which we appreciated.

However, there were some significant issues that affected our experience. The bathroom felt quite dated, and unfortunately, cleanliness was a problem — there was body hair and even toenails left in the bath when we arrived. While the staff responded promptly and cleaned it after we reported it, this is something that really shouldn’t happen in the first place.

As an apology, the hotel offered us sparkling wine, which was a kind gesture, but we were on a family trip and not drinking, so it wasn’t particularly useful for us.

We also attempted to have breakfast, but due to kitchen issues, we weren’t able to eat. As we already had plans, we had to leave without breakfast. The hotel said they would process a refund for this, which we are still waiting on and hope will come through as promised.

Overall, while the hotel has potential and the staff were pleasant, the cleanliness issue and breakfast disruption were disappointing.

Lovely hotel, excellent staff. The hotel contacted us prior to our arrival to check our estimated arrival time…. I don’t think the reception desk is manned full time, so this is a smart way to ensure there is someone there to meet you. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Our room was on the very top floor so it was quite a climb, however the offer to help with luggage was there. Being an old building, there’s no lift, so this isn’t the place for you if you have mobility issues! We arrived slightly early and fortunately our room was ready, so we were able to check in right away. The room was clean and spacious- the sofa bed for our 12 year old was already made up. L’Occitane toiletries in the bathroom were a lovely touch, plus bottled water in the fridge too. Coffee machine, kettle, biscuits etc all there for us. The bathroom was clean and modern, with lovely fluffy towels. Surprisingly there was housekeeping even though we were only there for 2 nights. Breakfast was really nice….. a buffet style continental plus cooked options made fresh to order. Everything was lovely and well presented. Again the staff in the breakfast room were lovely. We received a message before we left asking for our approximate departure time, again I assume to ensure the desk was manned. Very smooth checkout process. We were able to leave our luggage to enable us to explore the city on our last day without carting bulky cases around with us. Would absolutely recommend.

The location is outside of the City Centre, but there are many fabulous restaurants near-by and the Royal Mile is only a 10 min ride or a 25 min walk away. We found getting a taxi or ride share to the Museum on the Mound made for a convenient drop off point.

The location of Nira Caledonia is excellent, and I really wanted to love this hotel as it clearly has a lot of potential. We stayed in a Wee Room, which was perfectly fine for what we paid for. However, it was located in the attic and the stairs to reach it were extremely steep — managing four suitcases was a real challenge. It would have been helpful if, at check-in, a Wee Room on a lower or mid-floor could have been offered.

Breakfast was unfortunately the main disappointment. On the first morning the chef had called in sick, so only a continental breakfast was available — this was actually very good, so no complaints there. The second morning, however, we waited nearly an hour for a cooked breakfast, while every other table was served before us. Our order was also mixed up, likely because the waitress didn’t write anything down. I received scrambled eggs instead of poached, and my partner received poached instead of scrambled. Simple steps like using a notepad and repeating the order back would easily avoid these issues.

Overall, I can really see the potential here and genuinely wanted to like this place, but unfortunately it just didn’t quite deliver for us.

I did stay in the small room and the three flights of stairs were a bit much. But the room was so HOT. That is great for sleeping, but it should be easier to turn it down. I had to open a window. The shower was soooooo small and it had a huge contraption of a shower - just simplify and give us more room.
I had dinner (bar menu) which was excellent. But then they had the regular menu and I literally could not find anything I wanted to eat. I wish I could haver ordered from the bar menu my last night. Some people like lighter dinners.
The staff was fantastic. The room was great. I would stay there again - maybe not on the 3rd floor but only because it was so hot and the bathroom so small. But I would do a 4.5 stars.

Size Matters

Before booking, know there isn't a lift or AC in the rooms. Staff will provide a fan for air flow if requested and help with luggage as well. But those facts aren't made known up front. Staff was friendly.

The room was cozy, but the bathroom was very small. I'm 6'3\" and generlaly average build, and still had trouble being comforatable just moving around. It wasn't possible to sit on the toilet with the placement of it in proximity to the sink. As well, there wasn't a shower wall or curtain so the bathroom was extremely wet after taking a shower. Again, I'm of average size (6'3/195 lbs) and when I would move around in the shower my arms would bump the control and accidentally adjust the water to then have it go ice cold or scalding hot. I had to be very careful about how I would turn in the shower.

Overall, it was fine - but it would be near impossible of a large build to physically fit in the bathroom.

Needs a bit of TLC sadly

Unfortunately we had an awful experience on the very first morning with very unprofessional behaviour by a member of staff. The manager sought to rectify the issue immediately but it did sour our stay. On the whole the hotel is perfectly situated and should have been a perfect stay. I did notice an improvement after speaking with the manager, just disappointed it happened as it did. In terms of bedrooms, our grand suite was lovely with its own little garden, comfortable bed etc. the communal areas need some attention - general painting, carpets torn in places and updating.

I would stress that the Manager did address my concerns very quickly and I understand that there were actions taken after my experience.

If you are Coeliac or gluten intolerant, what I would say is that food options at breakfast are minimal.

This is an exceptional hotel. Located in the beautiful Stockbridge neighborhood area. Close enough to walk to all the amazing sites but also away from the crowds.

The staff is equally incredible. Will definitely stay again if in Edinburgh.

Edinburgh is very hilly, so to walk to the center is like 30 mins. Also some rooms are in the basement and small.

We were on the ground floor. A bit noisy. The room was dated. The Wifi stopped working. Overall a nice place but not worth the high price.

Boutique hotel with impeccable service

Although I have stayed here every time I visited Edinburgh over the last ten years, each experience never ceases to impress. From the knowledgeable staff at front desk to the friendly servers at breakfast, guests are cared for in every respect, with hospitality, courtesy, kindness and efficiency. I have no reservations recommending this establishment as a home away from home while visiting Edinburgh.
