A TRUE WALDORF

WINTER

F E S T I V E S E A S O N 2 0 1 8

Christmas and New Year are magical times in the calendar as we rush towards the end of one year and mark the start of another. It’s a time to bring people together, to catch up and enjoy the traditional and decadent dishes of the season.

The festivities create a cause for celebration, with evenings accompanied by mulled wine, Champagne, Christmas carols, mince pies, laughter and so much more – it’s a joyful time to enjoy with loved ones.

Whatever the reason for the gathering, our historic hotel will be transformed into a magical winter wonderland, brimming with festive sparkle from the moment you arrive.

We very much look forward to welcoming you to Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh – The Caledonian and helping you create the perfect festive celebration and memories that will last a lifetime.
