Strathberry & Kimpton: A Luxury Bag Library Arrives in Scotland

This summer, two of Scotland’s most stylish addresses are getting an exciting new addition – and it comes with a signature gold bar clasp. From 12th June 2025, guests checking into Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel in Edinburgh and Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel in Glasgow will be able to borrow a beautifully crafted Strathberry handbag for the duration of their stay – complimentary, of course.

Designed for the fashion-forward and eco-conscious traveller, the new Strathberry Bag Library brings the luxury of choice straight to your hotel room. Whether you're heading to dinner in the New Town or a gallery opening in the West End, you can select from a curated edit of signature Strathberry styles, delivered via room service to complete your look.

The collaboration is a natural fit. Edinburgh-based Strathberry is known for timeless Scottish design and quality craftsmanship, while Kimpton is beloved for its relaxed take on boutique luxury and thoughtful guest touches. This latest evolution of Kimpton’s “Forgot it? We’ve Got It!” programme goes beyond the essentials – elevating your travel wardrobe with something that feels special, considered, and uniquely local.

“At Kimpton, we’ve always done things a little differently,” says Mary Mant, General Manager at Kimpton Charlotte Square. “We’re delighted to partner with Strathberry on this stylish new addition to our guest experience – from toothbrushes to designer handbags, we’ve got you covered. And for us, there’s something particularly special about sharing a piece like the Charlotte bag, inspired by the square just outside our front door.”

For Strathberry, the partnership is a meaningful way to welcome visitors into the world of Scottish design in a more circular and conscious way. “We believe in thoughtful production and celebrating our Scottish heritage,” says Leeanne Hundleby, Co-Founder of Strathberry. “This collaboration offers guests a beautiful way to experience understated luxury during their stay – and maybe even find a timeless souvenir to take home.”

As part of the experience, guests will also receive a complimentary card for personalisation services at either of Strathberry’s elegant Edinburgh boutiques – the newly refurbished Multrees Walk store in the city’s luxury shopping quarter or the picturesque Victoria Street location. Both offer monogramming and bespoke details to help create something truly unique to remember your Scottish adventure by.

Fashion with feeling, style with substance – this is travel the Strathberry x Kimpton way.
