Excellent location in the heart of Edinburgh. Good views of the castle from the communal areas. Lovely breakfasts, and the staff could not have been more helpful. It is undergoing some modernisation at the moment, but this doesn't mean that any parts of the hotel are grubby and outdated - you just get the sense that it is very grand.... More

We stayed at the Caledonian Hilton for 3 nights. We were upgraded to a suite (courtesy Hilton points) that was simply out of this world. It was by far the best suite I have seen in my extensive travels. It was really like a large apartment, with a huge bedroom, a huge living room, an exquisite bathroom, and the area... More

Another great deal pushing the "Mystery Hotel" button on Lastminute - full arat 240 we got ours for 105 with breakfast I was delighted when the confirmation came that we'd be staying at the Callie - I lived in Edinburgh a long time ago and could never afford to drink or stay there. Then I saw it was Hilton these... More

Stayed here for the Edinburgh marathon, The Caledonian was a delight to stay in, not the usual Corporate Hilton model, still has a very much independent feel whilst being up to date. On princes street as well, perfect location. Didn't eat there, so can't comment. Great place for a romantic weekend break. More

Upon arrival we found it difficult to get in to the car park and the parking attendant wasn't the most helpful. We were allocated our room which was locatto to the... More

There was a wedding and everyone, including the bridal party, was outside when the firemen pulled up. Rather priceless story! On the other side, definiately, if you can, go for an upgrade and get...
