The Caledonian Edinburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

West End

10/10 Excellent

Excellent trip from start to finish. We arrived early, but the rooms were already ready. And we got a fantastic upgrade! The concierge helped us plan out our sightseeing for the following day, as well as made a great dinner recommendation and reservation. Drinks and food at Peacock Alley and the Caley bar were excellent. The service was wonderful - I wish I could remember all the staffs’ name who assisted us. Thanks for an excellent stay!

The Bonham Hotel

10/10 Excellent

When searching for a hotel to stay, what attracted me to the Bonham Hotel was the style and look presented in the overview. This did not disappoint and I absolutely loved the victorian feel and how this hotel was so wonderfully put together. The staff was beyond amazing and so nice to me with questions, assistance, and general feedback about the hotel history and suggestions on great places to visit around town. I purchased the breakfast option and, me being a big breakfast person, the options...
