The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Hotel Peterborough Waterfront

Scenic Comfort Just Minutes from the Music

Modern yet relaxed, the Holiday Inn Hotel Peterborough Waterfront offers a picturesque riverside setting less than five minutes from downtown Peterborough. With views of the Trent Severn Waterway, cozy rooms, and both indoor and outdoor pools, it’s a peaceful base with easy access to the city’s buzzing music scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re only a short drive—or even a scenic walk—from Peterborough’s top concert venues. After the encore, unwind in the hot tub or sauna, or grab a late bite at the hotel’s bar and grill. With free Wi-Fi and a 24-hour fitness center, the hotel caters to both your pre-show energy and post-show recovery. The quiet riverside location means you can catch some peace even after a high-energy night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a laid-back launchpad near downtown
  • Solo travelers checking off a legendary artist
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking a quieter space to chill after the show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value and comfort

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up at Riverside Grill, or head outside to the seasonal Gazebo Bar & Grill for fresh, local meals. Craving something later? Bernie's Tap and Grill is the perfect post-show stop for drinks and bites. While not 24/7, the dining options are available late enough to satisfy most concert-goers. Plus, breakfast is served daily—ideal after a night of dancing.

Nightlife Options

You’re close to downtown Peterborough’s bars, lounges, and live music spots, making it easy to keep the party going. Or stay in and enjoy a relaxed evening over drinks at Bernie's Tap and Grill, which offers a cozy, local vibe without the noise.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, beautiful river views, and central location. The pools and hot tub are a hit with visitors looking to unwind after a long day. Many mention how walkable the hotel is to area attractions and music venues, and appreciate the clean, comfortable rooms.

Areas for Improvement

Some rooms could use a refresh, and during peak weekends, parking can feel a bit tight. While dining hours are good, 24-hour options would be a bonus for late-night concert returnees. Still, the overall experience is strong for the price.

The Bottom Line

With its riverside charm, central location, and post-show perks, Holiday Inn Hotel Peterborough Waterfront is a smart, relaxing choice for concert-goers looking to enjoy both the music and the moment.

Very good

Liked: Our view from our room, really comfy beds. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Really nice waterfront walkway infront of hotel.
Disliked: $20 for breakfast, a continental breakfast at least should have been complimentary. Hottub was out of commission, so disappointed in that after 4 hour drive there. Also they charged $15 to place a little microwave in our room, which they should not charge for.
