About the Hotel
Overlooking one of Edinburgh's prettiest private garden squares, Kimpton Charlotte Square consists of seven interconnecting Georgian townhouses in the heart of the New Town. Our beautifully formed bedrooms and suites are inspired by the golden age of travel and a genuine sense of Scottish hospitality. Sitting proudly in the middle of the hotel is The Garden bar and restaurant, an oasis of calm in the centre of the city. Light and bright during the day for breakfast and lunch, transforming in to a fairy lit hideaway in the evening for cocktails and dinner. Sample our Twilight Tea, a unique take on the classic afternoon tea with a focus on savoury flavours from 12pm to 10pm every day. BABA restaurant is a sumptuous, relaxed journey to the Levant, featuring mezze, charcoal dishes and small plates with bold Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours perfect for sharing. Cocktails take on the adventurous flavours to continue the journey until late in the BABA bar.

Outstanding
Just incredible, from check in to check out this was one of the most impressive hotels I’ve ever stayed at. Yes it’s a little “worn” but only adds to the character. Reception amazing, room was awesome, bar an restaurant team incredible. Atmosphere, high energy and very cool. Spa, incredible! Evening vibes are up there with best city breaks in Europe. I love this hotel and you will too. Just incredible. Thank you! 🙏

Amazing hotel with the friendliest, most welcoming staff.
I cannot speak more highly of the lovely welcoming friendly staff at this gorgeous, well maintained, clean hotel. From the moment you walk in you feel like you should be there. The staff are helpful and want to go that extra mile to make sure your stay is a happy one. We ate at Baba and again had a great experience with happy helpful staff and amazing food. Breakfast was ok. But again good service with always ready to help staff. Bar: they are lovely, chatty, helpful respectful staff that cannot do enough for you. Their smiles glow and make you feel so welcome. I would not ever stay anywhere else. It is so hard to name everyone but from the door staff to the room booking staff (Kimberly). The best experience will be had at this hotel.

Everything was lovely!
We recently stayed at Kimpton Charlotte Square for four nights and it was just delightful. The location is perfect to easily get to every part of the city, yet is not in the midst of tourist crowds. The staff, from registration to the concierge to cocktail hour staff to breakfast was wonderful and helpful. I loved borrowing a Strathberry bag for the stay, which was an unexpected treat. We will definitely stay at Kimpton again and hope to be back at this particular one very soon.

Terrific Hotel and staff
Majek at the front desk of the hotel made everything so seamless ! From our arrival to anything we needed during our stay to assistance with departure. Incredible service, lovely rooms. I am a bit late writing this as it was last August- but in traveling we always try to remember the people that went out of the way to. make our stay memorable!
