For many years The Roxburghe - as it was long known - was synonymous with Edinburgh’s fashionable West End, and although it has had many rebrandings over the years, the latest incarnation the Kimpton Charlotte Square more than lives up to its forebears' reputation.

The hotel's Georgian townhouses sits grandly on the corner of Charlotte Square and George Street, in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town. George Street is peppered with a range of cafés and restaurants to suit all palates, while Edinburgh’s main shopping thoroughfare, Princes Street, is just around the corner.
