Eclectically styled and cleverly detailed, the bedrooms and suites at The Principal Edinburgh Charlotte Square celebrate the golden age of travel. A curated collection of art adorns the bedroom walls; and accessories mix books and miscellanea with PRINCIPAL touch points such as red bedside phones and a tuck box of treats.

The bedrooms are located across the Georgian townhouse buildings and the new house.

Guest rooms and suites in the hotel's modern wing have a fresher, more contemporary feel with smoky greys and tan accents.
