Hotel is really run down. Room obviously had someone with body odour either cleaning it or staying in it previously. I couldn't get the window open to let air in.
I also had to negotiate with staff to buy a drink, 15 minutes before the bar stated closing time.

Good for the price and late booking, but the woodwork, doors etc needed cleaning, dirty finger marks everywhere & the mattress was lumpy and very uncomfortable, had pits in it.

Im giving 5 stars for each component to the review. The hotel is welcoming, nicely decorated and staff wonderful and hard working.
Our room was immaculate and very nice, a little older looking and wee bit dark, other than that, no complaints. New comfortable beds, fresh bed white linen, extra blankets in the wardrobe for thoe cold nights. Theres a radiator we had to switch on but once on the room was so cozy.
Theres flat screen tv with LOADS of channels, mirror, desk and chair, your refreshments tea/coffee/hot chocolate, condiments and a few pre packed bickies! Iron and board, also hairdryer.
The ensuite was bright, tiled and very clean with a shower cubicle. A good size sink and toilet, narrow glass shelf with complimentary shower gel etc. My only gripe was I had nowhere to place my clothes etc, theres no shelf,hooks or anywhere for this.
The price of the room included a wholesome breakfast and pre ordered porridge made with milk! The breakfast was buffet style and absolutely adequate for everyone with cereals, yoghurt, full scottish, toast and jams etc.
I will return here.

Convenient and clean.
The bedrooms in this property are functional as are the bathrooms. However, bathrooms are very dated & could do with a facelift.
The room amenities are as expected. Kettle (with small amount of limescale) teas/coffees (lovely hot chocolate) & some standard rather dull biscuits; but it is the thought that counts. A missed opportunity here not offering local [Scottish] fare.
Small, but scrupulously clean, bed. In this day & age when we are all so used to Kingsize, suddenly encountering a "double" is a shock and makes it seem even smaller. The room could easily take a Kingsize.
The shower pressure was decent, but the cubicle was again quite small (albeit standard size). If one was larger, it would have been a struggle.
The breakfast on this occasion was not as good as during previous visits (when it had been fabulous). Some of the items on the hot buffet appeared to have been there too long & dried out (particularly the bacon and haggis) & the fried eggs were congealed. Requests for new eggs were met with reluctance.
The breakfast staff were not entirely interested in assisting guests proactively. I observed that questions & requests were met with rather sullen responses & disinclination.
A member of staff (manager or owner?) was lounging on a sofa adjacent to the bar during check-in (late evening) & again on check-out (mid morning). This made one feel slightly uneasy & scrutinised, or perhaps they do not entirely trust their staff.

Comfortable, clean and well-sited property. My room was quiet, comfortably heated, well appointed and clean and I was able to work in it without adjacent noise. A very good plentiful self-service breakfast was available in the morning. The Caledonian Hotel ticked all my boxes.
