The hype
Travelers love the location and the free tuck box of treats, but opinions split sharply on the 'Townhouse' (charming but small) vs. 'New House' (modern but generic) rooms.
Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel
$180-350/ 晚
如果以下情況適用，請預訂 You want the sweet spot between a historic Georgian townhouse fantasy and a modern hotel that actually works (AC, good showers, and a killer spa).
為什麼人們喜歡它
- The 'Swell Room' in the spa (UK's first sound wellness room)
- BABA restaurant is a legitimate destination, not just a hotel dining room
- Free 'Social Hour' with wine and popcorn every evening at 5pm
快速概覽： It's two hotels in one: a creaky-but-charming historic townhouse and a slick modern wing—make sure you know which one you're booking.
由 @mettahara 評論: I honestly felt like royalty staying here. The bathroom setup with that clawfoot tub and the view of Edinburgh is iconic. Ordering room service and just soaking in the bubbles with a glass of champagne was the highlight of my trip. 10/10 vibes.
住過這裡的客人說
Reality check
Breakfast at The Garden is stunning but gets chaotic with queues on weekends—go early or skip it for a local cafe.
- You travel with a dog (pets stay free, no size limit enforced strictly though 35kg is the official cap)
- You prioritize a high-end gym and spa over a massive room
- You want to be steps from George Street shopping but have a quiet courtyard to retreat to

- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough. Recent reviews praise the 'spotless' condition.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally immaculate. One isolated report of mold on tiles, but vast majority cite 'sparkling' modern fixtures.
- Maintenance: Excellent in New House; Townhouse rooms show minor wear (creaky boards, older windows).

- Odors & scents: Fresh signature scent in lobby; no lingering smoke/musty smells reported recently.

“I would prefer a room in the 'New House' wing for better soundproofing and air conditioning. If possible, a high-floor room with a view of the Castle would be ideal.”
