The Caledonian is an interesting old pub, but the rooms are near the outside beer garden so the music was able to be heard until late on Friday and Saturday nights. The staff were excellent.

Great location, beautifully clean room and loved all the renovated features. Bed was very comfortable and quality linens appreciated 🙏 All our needs inside the room were well met 👍 Outside felt a bit too cosy/close to neighbours as they spent a lot of time sitting outside smoking and drinking. We could hear all their conversation and their cigarette smoke drifted to our room, so we had to keep our door and window shut. Otherwise, excellent! 🙏☺️

Collect the key from the bar. The room is comfortable and quiet. Everything was ready for us. Dining at the hotel was insanely popular so a booking might be wise.

We loved our stay at the Caledonian Inn. The room was comfortable, clean and quiet - had all that we needed. Off street parking. Walking distance to shops and restaurants - but the food at the Caledonian Inn itself was fabulous. We recommend the pub and the accommodation - and will definitely visit again!
