City Hotel
Our Rating
9.0
Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel, a jewel of refined elegance set beside a charming private garden in Edinburgh's graceful New Town, masterfully blends timeless Georgian glamour with the vibrant spirit of modern Scotland.
Its classical exterior pays homage to the city's storied past, while inside, a dazzling glass-topped central courtyard pulses with sophisticated energy—an urban oasis where tradition meets effortless contemporary luxury.
Each beautifully appointed room and suite envelops guests in indulgent comfort, featuring flat-screen Smart TVs, sumptuous 300-thread-count bed linen, a complimentary treat box, a stocked fridge with fresh milk and premium mineral water, and luxurious en suite bathrooms complete with a thoughtful selection of complimentary toiletries—creating a welcoming sanctuary that feels both pampering and distinctly Edinburgh.
BABA, the hotel's vibrant mezze and charcoal grill restaurant and cocktail bar, serves an enticing fusion of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine from lunchtime through late evening, with breakfast offering a delicious start to the day. The Garden, the hotel's serene central courtyard, becomes the perfect escape from the city's bustle—serving refreshing drinks and an array of freshly baked pastries every weekend and Sunday from 9am to 3pm, inviting moments of calm amid the urban rhythm.
Complimentary access to the tranquil spa and Fitness Centre provides a rejuvenating haven, complete with a sparkling swimming pool, state-of-the-art gym, and a full menu of indulgent treatments—including restorative facials and therapeutic massages—available at additional cost for those seeking deeper relaxation and renewal.
Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel commands an enviable position at the very heart of Edinburgh's financial district, mere metres from the iconic Princes Street and George Street, and just a 5-minute stroll from Waverley Railway Station. Edinburgh Airport lies a convenient 7 miles away, placing this sophisticated retreat at the perfect crossroads of culture, commerce, and the city's most captivating attractions.
