Fast Food Restaurant
Social Bite is a social business. It gives 100% of it's profits to charity, and a at least a quarter of the staff are formerly homeless
Social business, fresh, local, healthy food, donating 100% of profits to social causes in Scotland & throughout the world. Social Bite prepares hand made food every day, using fresh, healthy and local produce. No sell by dates. No preservatives. Just the best local ingredients, served up daily. Social Bite plans to grow large enough to take on the big dogs such as Pret A Manger, Subway & Greggs - the exception being that it will be done with 100% social mission statement - not for greed, not for profit, for the homeless in Britain, and the poverty struck in third world countries. But the main difference between social bite and the rest is that 100% (every single penny) of profit goes towards solving social problems. This is not a token gesture. This is not a PR spin. This is just a different kind of business. A business to help others. This is a Social Business.

124 Princes St, Edinburgh EH2 4AD, UK
Excellent hotel. Fantastic location (with a view of the castle from my room). Very reasonable price. I ate in the restaurant there and the food was lovely. The staff are very welcoming and the staff in the restaurant were absolute stars! I would definitely recommend!. Sarah G - in the last week
Room was clean, comfortable and very large. It was very cold during the night/in the morning and the heating system did nothing. The lift perennially did not work, we had our key card replaced 4 times due to the lift. Breakfast was a "hot" buffet but the food was like warm so not very appetising. Good location and our room had a view of the castle, but overall bot a great experience. . Craig Muir - a month ago
Perfect location for a city break. Staff lovely and right on top of everything. Some rooms face the castle which is stunning.. Tracey Ayling - in the last week
Excellent staff. Very helpful. Not the newer type of bed and the room was a little stuffy even with the air con. But the location is great. Could do with another Scotch or two on the bar. . Benjamin Knight - 2 months ago
Very clean hotel & rooms. Really friendly staff always eager to help. Reasonable rates. The hotel is at the center of the city within minutes of major landmarks. Once you get out of the hotel you have a great vista of the castle. Highly recommended. . Jason Debeniotis - 4 months ago
80 Lauriston Pl, Edinburgh EH3 9DE, UK
Hotel is in a good central location (a short walk from the castle and Prince Street). Modern, clean and comfortable rooms. Breakfast was excellent. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Found the hotel bar to be expensive - plenty of cheaper bars around the hotel. Would stay here again.. Mark Boyt - in the last week
clean and comfort bed. staffs were helpful. sometimes hotel's car park is full. NCP car park next to the castle is co-operated with the hotel.. Chanwut Nopsanti - 3 weeks ago
Good location. Clean and basic. No frills hotel but with good services and amenities. . Amber Goodwin - 2 weeks ago
Very clean rooms and friendly staff . Well organised swimming pool with sauna and steam room. Location of the hotel makes it great place for a stop on a city viewing trip. Atmospheric bar is a excellent place for a drink after long day out, and food served in restaurant is made to a high standard. One star less for the tight underground car park..

11 Bristo Pl, Edinburgh EH1 1EZ, UK
My mom and I visited the bistro for afternoon tea after finding it online. For the price, the experience was average. The location and atmosphere are great but 2 of the 5 desserts were almost inedible as the sugar in the merengue in the tea cakes and the lemon tart was very crunchy and gave the desserts a strange texture. The sandwiches were very good although not traditional. Service was also average. I don't know about the rest of the hotel and restaurant but I wouldn't recommend this location for afternoon tea. . Lisa Higuchi - 2 weeks ago
Great history. This place tells many tales. Food was excellent, especially the cold smoked salmon.. Kandy White - a week ago
132 Corstorphine Rd, Edinburgh EH12 6UA, UK
Couldn't fault the stay, or facilities. All staff were courteous and friendly, with a smile. Large bar area, and good dining facilities, where all desire to sit in the windows for city panoramas, and watch sunrise at breakfast. I'd suggest to those looking to book, try searching for two nights at a time, as you may be able to get a two night b&b with one nights dinner package for less than the standard room rate. We just paid £154 for said package, whereas two nights room only was £158 on ihg direct!. Pheonix Property - a month ago
I stayed in a family room for a short trip to Edinburgh. The room is OK. Spacious enough but a bit tired. The Holiday Inn is located next to the zoo so means of transportation are pretty good to go to town.. Corrado G - a week ago
Room was very clean. Hotel staff very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was good. A bit too much noise from trucks in the morning as room overlooked service area.. Sean Whiting - a month ago
The location was superb, right next door to Edinburgh Zoo, and direct city centre bus links on the front door. The staff extremely friendly and polite always make a great impression on every guest! I attended this hotel for a professional event, but although I didn't see the room facilities, the cleanliness of the entire hotel was kept at a clear high standard compared to other venues I have been at. .

Castlehill, The Royal Mile, Edinburgh EH1 2NF, UK
First of all, the most important: the food. It was very good. I'm not leaving the place thinking how unforgettably delicious the food was, but it was indeed great! The wine selection was also quite comprehensive and even the wines by the glass paired perfectly with the food and were very tasty indeed. The ambience is worth 5 stars, definitely (worth saying we had our meal at the secret garden, not the witchery room itself), which was more romantic and cozier than we could imagine. The service was very friendly and accommodating. All and all it was a fantastic evening, well worth repeating.. Leonardo Hirsch Pontes - in the last week
Decor here is fantastic, one of the most unique restaurants I have eaten in. The staff was attentive, professional, and polite. Steak was delicious. Sides were a little underwhelming. Wine list was vast and excellent. A good place to eat after a long day exploring the castle. Make reservations and expect to pay a little more for the fine dining experience. . Bart Lawrence - a week ago
Stunning restaurant. Ambience is perfect. Waiters are very attentive without being in your face. Perfect level of service. Oh by the way, the food was beautiful. Two course lunch turned into three course as we couldn't miss the fantastic desserts.. Absolutely loved it.. james tastybake - a month ago
Had the set lunch menu. I chose pea soup and fish pie. Both were very heavy handed with salt. I was very thirsty afterwards Service was superb and the atmosphere was stunningly furnished. A very romantic atmosphere. Jocelyn Wong - a week ago
Really big portions! Food was decently good. Wasn't very impressed by the oysters - still good though (£17 for 6). Waiters were very attentive and checked on us constantly just to make sure everything was ok. Prices were reasonable and affordable. Their 2-course lunch is priced at £20. Made reservations for The Secret Garden Dining Room - beautiful setting with candlelights. . Yong Yong Tew - a month ago
23-27 Waterloo Pl, Edinburgh EH1 3BH, UK
We stayed here 1 night after the New Year and it was good. The hotel is really nice, the room we had was a decent size room and the location at what the hotel is to Princess Street is brilliant. My girlfriend had her nails done here which turned out great and she loved them, and the food from here was nice also. We had coffee downstairs at the bar section which is a cool room to just come to and relax. Staff were helpful also. Would stay here again if around Edinburgh town.. Graham Walger - in the last week
Not a bad place to stay, but not reliably great. My first stay here was great. Super nice room and no snags along the way. Second stay was in a scary room that you can only get to by walking through the stairwell to an in-between level. The front desk staff were pretty good. Bar was super slow and didn't bother to check my room number, which led to me accidentally charging another room for my drink. Fixed it later, but clearly sloppy execution.. Jackson Gabbard - a month ago
By far my favorite hotel I have ever stayed in. Perfectly located and within walking distance to absolutely everything (except the zoo!). Clean, fantastic customer service who went above and beyond, great 24hr bar, great prices if you book in advanced. No complaints at all.. Merry Mare - a week ago

Princes St, Edinburgh EH2 2DG, UK
Food was decent. Definitely would describe it as decent pub food it was not table service good for quick working lunch but wouldn't use for a date or high end meeting ect. Thinks like steak pie and baked potatoes on offer. Price wise not bad for Edinburgh city centre. . Richard McIntyre - 3 weeks ago
Location was excellent. Breakfast was very good but need to be in the restaurant before 8.45am as queues soon started to form. Biggest disappointment was the room we were allocated which I'm sure was actually a single room at the back of the hotel. Room 552. Could only get into the bed from one side and only one bedside table and lamp. Also very hot during the night but radiators were cold ??. Had to open the window as was sweltering but then had to endure outside fan noise. I'm sure there are nice large rooms at the front of the hotel but we were unlucky in our allocation !! Hotel is a bit tired but location makes up for this and fine for one night.. Christine Brazier - a week ago
Very poor! Had a Christmas lunch booked since August, turned up with my colleagues only to be told they had no table and waited an hour to be seated. No apology given, no table cloths on tables, tables not laid correctly everyone missing something, our part was split into three tables. Food was cold and poorly presented. All the drinks orders mixed up, no coffee and mints served as per menu. We were asked to leave from a very rude lady, as the table was required for the night time party, at 7 when it was only 430! Toilets had no toilet paper! Was extremely disappointed and thought the staff were very rude.. Jade Haw - a month ago
Good place to pop in for a drink when you are in town. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Would recommend. . Liam Jaffray - 2 months ago
Horrible. Wrong description on website, that led me to book there. Parking facilities too far away and too expensive. Horrible room, dirty towels, impossibly hot room. Couldn't open the window because of the noise of the central heating outside. no view whatsoever. Employees not so kind. Never, ever again.. Valentina Paoli - a month ago
35 Drumsheugh Gardens, Edinburgh EH3 7RN, UK
Classically cool. Last minute stay. Everything went very smoothly and we thoght the place was beautiful and set in a perfect location. Close to all the bustle but far enough away for a great sleep in a huge comfy room. The lager from the mini bar was much needed on arrival and well priced at 3.75. Topped off by a fantastic smoked salmon breakfast in bed on a lovely sunny morning. Perfect. We'll be back. . Danny Craigie - 4 months ago
Beautiful hotel tucked away in the west end of the city. Shame they charge to park at the hotel even as a resident. That's poor . Service and decor good . 5Bridgedesign - 2 months ago
6-10 Gloucester Pl, Edinburgh EH3 6EF, UK
I had an amazing stay at Nira Caledonia while on a business trip to Edinburgh. My room was amazing, nothing short of super luxury but with a lovely country chic feel. The staff has been amazing, helpful, well prepared and always available. The hotel is conveniently located about 5 min walk from the city centre, very handy for both business and leisure. I would recommend it to anyone.. Marica Attorresi - 2 months ago
We were really disappointed with this hotel. The room was very small, you could barely get round the bed. The window looked out onto an electric box and was next to the bins. We were woken up by the staff taking out the rubbish in the morning. Also we couldn't find a way to lock the window, which was accessible from the road. The restaurant was good but I don't consider this to be luxury and I wouldn't consider staying here again. I've stayed in far better places for a fraction of the price. . Toby S - 3 weeks ago
Quirky hotel, different from your usual chains. Few different things in the room didn't work. Really felt welcomed, would like to have been able to give more stars. . David Small - in the last week
My husband & I had a couple of days in Edinburgh staying at the Nira courtesy of a good friend. It was also our wedding anniversary. We love the staff here, the general feel is fantastic with no request being too much bother. The food is fantastic and the wine list sumptuous and affordable! We felt very well looked after and a bit special after our stay. ??. Lynn White - 7 months ago
The city is magical and the architecture is mesmerizing. One often wonders about the history of Edinburgh and ends up taking up loads of photographs.
Tips:Must see the city life with all its diverse cultures, try new restaurants and enjoy the Scottish breakfast.
