Kimpton Charlotte Square
Overlooking one of Edinburgh’s prettiest private garden squares, Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel consists of seven interconnected Georgian townhouses. Outside is where you’ll find the New Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s delightfully removed from the city’s tourist hubs. But it’s inside where things really get interesting. The interior blends handsome woods, plush fabrics, and rich pops of color—and, yes, just a touch of tartan—to luxurious effect. And with a magnetic inner courtyard, an acclaimed Middle Eastern restaurant and award-winning Scottish restaurant, it’s no wonder the hotel has become a natural meeting point.
Royal Mile Balconies by the Castle
Royal Mile Balconies by the Castle is based directly on Royal Mile in Edinburgh, in one of the oldest Scottish buildings dating back to 15th century, and previously home to famous Scottish philosopher Sir David Hume. The property features 6 rooms with king-size beds, LCD TV's and free high-speed Wi-Fi. Each of the Royal Mile Balconies by the Castle rooms is uniquely decorated and has own original private bathroom with large shower. Some of the rooms overlook the historic courtyard and across Edinburgh's Old Town. Edinburgh Military Tattoo is 300 metres from Royal Mile Balconies by the Castle, while Edinburgh Castle is 200 metres away.
