No tartan. No stuffed deer heads. No prints of Bonnie Prince Charlie. Nira Caledonia, our boutique hotel in Edinburgh Scotland, blends Bohemian chic with contemporary comfort. Amid the plush pelmets, rich textures and original cornices you’ll find flat-screen televisions, Nespresso coffee machines and iPod docking stations. You’ll find warm, heartfelt service and a cool, quirky style. With a friendly touch – and a touch of theatre – we welcome independent-minded travellers who prefer to go their own way. Come our way.
Our luxury hotel in Edinburgh city centre is a sanctuary for worldly, well-travelled individuals…people who value easy-going sincerity more than rigid rules and stuffiness. In a period residence that was once home to Christopher North, a renowned 19th century essayist, bon viveur and hedonist, our boutique Edinburgh hotel continues the tradition he set. We too are devoted to pleasure. In fact, with 24-hour room service and complimentary Wi-Fi, we’re perfectly suited to the pursuit of pleasure and the promotion of commerce.
Set within central Edinburgh’s UNESCO World Heritage Site, Nira Caledonia is just a short stroll from Princes Street. Of all the hotels in Edinburgh city centre, ours has the optimum blend of convenience and calm. Surrounded by cobbled streets and neo-classical elegance, we’re well positioned for the many things to do in Edinburgh and also for restful relaxation. We’re ideal as Edinburgh festival accommodation and as a year-round base to explore a capital city steeped in history yet alive with modern, cosmopolitan culture.
Check-in is in building no 6.
Each room and suite within our hotel accommodation in Edinburgh is unique, with its own opulent character, period features and quirky charm. At the same time, each is equipped with the latest in high-tech hospitality. The beds feature 2000 pocket springs with deep sumptuous fillings and the pillows are duckfeather and down. All rooms and suites have free Wi-Fi, a flat-screen multi-channel television, DVD player, iPod docking station, direct-dial telephone and a Nespresso machine serving a range of Grands Crus coffee.
