If you’re after an elegant stay in Edinburgh, look no further than Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel. Situated in a Regency period building and decked out in chic decor, this hotel shows off with the Spa at Charlotte Square. Dip into the indoor pool, switch off in the UK’s first sound wellness room or get fit in a Pilates Class. You can also tantalise your tastebuds at the two restaurants, where Levantine dishes and Scottish breakfasts top the menu. What’s more, this historic hotel’s New Town postcode keeps it close to the capital’s main sights.
Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel is right at home in Edinburgh’s fashionable New Town. Tucked away among a collection of Georgian buildings, the stylish hotel rubs its well-dressed shoulders with manicured gardens and stately crescents. Princes Street Gardens, which is home to Edinburgh Castle, is just 170 metres away. Hike to the top of the hill to explore the medieval fortress – or simply gaze out to the cityscape of sandstone buildings and spired churches. Don’t miss a stroll along the famous Royal Mile, only half a mile away. Here you can peruse the cosy wool shops or admire the glistening stained-glass windows at St Giles Cathedral. The winding historic lane – Cockburn Street – houses quaint restaurants within the city’s trademark hessian-hued buildings, one mile away. Meanwhile, Edinburgh Airport is eight miles from the hotel.
Comprised of seven Georgian town houses, Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel pays homage to its Regency reputation, yet also has modern updates to keep you comfortable – from rainfall showers to posh toiletries. The sandy exterior with white arched windows and a striking black door give way to a lobby with surrealist artwork on the walls, mustard-coloured sofas and teal curtains. The trendy rooms are outfitted with animal wall hangings and a black marble bathroom with a rainfall shower and signature toiletries by 19-69. Superior rooms also provide tea, coffee and mineral water.

Other facilities
Once you’ve had your fill sightseeing, retreat to the Spa at Charlotte Square. This boho chic haven spoils you with an indoor pool, sauna and steam room. If you’re craving more pampering, treat yourself to a facial from the British brand Oskia, or opt for an ishga Seaweed Body Wrap, which will awaken your senses with Hebridean salt. OPI manicures are also on offer, so you can be ready for a night on the Royal Mile. Why not book a session in the UK’s first sound wellness room as a treatment add-on? You can kick back and chill out to the sounds of the rainforest at Swell.
Get a heart-pumping workout at the hotel’s fitness centre. Make the most of the Technogym equipment, hop on a Peloton bike or strengthen your core with some Pilates and HIIT classes.
Dining information
The hotel boasts two dining venues. Pull up a wicker chair at The Garden for breakfast and lunch, and tuck into pastries, porridge and creamy coffees. Try a Scottish roll here, too, which is filled with a choice of bacon or the national favourite – haggis.
As the afternoon and evening closes in, head to BABA restaurant, which tempts you with Lebanese cuisine. Savour a range of mezze plates – from baba ganoush to hummus, or enjoy grilled favourites like lamb adana kebabs. Vegetarians will appreciate the marinated artichokes on offer. Plus, there are signature cocktails available, like the tropical spice margarita, which packs plenty of punch with paprika infused tequila.
