The Spotlight on Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh - Formerly Jurys Inn

Modern Comfort in Edinburgh's Historic Heart

Stylish and centrally located, Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh - Formerly Jurys Inn puts you right in the middle of the action. Nestled in the Old Town just off the Royal Mile, this hotel blends classic Edinburgh charm with modern design. It's less than a 5-minute walk from Waverley Train Station—perfect for getting in, getting settled, and getting to the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

With major venues a short stroll away, you can skip the taxi queue and walk to gigs with ease. The hotel’s central location means you’re never far from the music—and the post-show comfort. Late check-out at 12:00 PM gives you time to sleep in after a big night, and the nearby train station makes late-night travel a breeze. Despite being in a lively area, guests report surprisingly quiet rooms thanks to thoughtful soundproofing.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends wanting to explore the city between sets
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert
  • Couples turning a gig into a romantic weekend
  • Fans seeking a peaceful place to crash after the encore
  • Budget-minded concert-goers wanting value and location

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s restaurant serves an international dinner menu, while the bar offers snacks, lunch, and proper coffee—ideal for a pre-concert bite or a late return snack. While there’s no 24/7 room service, there are plenty of eateries around the Royal Mile that stay open late. Breakfast is available on-site, even if you roll in a little later than usual.

Nightlife Options

You're steps from some of Edinburgh’s most popular bars and pubs. Whether you’re into traditional whisky lounges or modern cocktail spots, you’ll find something nearby. While the hotel doesn’t host live music on-site, its central location means you can find a venue with a quick walk.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious rooms, especially the comfy Dream beds and sleek bathrooms with spa-like toiletries. The location is a consistent highlight—close to everything, but peaceful inside. Many reviewers also mention the helpful staff and the ease of arriving via Waverley Station.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the decor could feel a little generic compared to the historic surroundings. Also, while the bar menu is decent, more late-night food options on-site would be a plus for post-gig cravings.

The Bottom Line

A smart pick for concert-goers wanting modern comfort and unbeatable location right in the heart of Edinburgh’s cultural scene.

Very Pleasant

Liked: Thanks to Mr. Josh who helped us a lot in making our stay comfortable. The AC wasn’t working and he managed to change our room at very late time. The location of the hotel is very close to the main train station, that you need only to walk to the hotel for less than 5 minutes.
Disliked: The entrance was suffering from the road maintenance.

Location is perfect!

Liked: The location is perfect, amazingly close to Waverley Train Station….Literally 2 minutes walk. So close to the Royal Mile, hop on hop off buses etc etc. Truely a brilliant location. Breakfast was lovely, as were the breakfast staff. The Scottish lady who showed us to our table was wonderful & a credit to the hotel. There is plenty of hot and cold food, full English, toast, juices, fruits, yoghurts, cereals, danish pastries etc. so you really can’t go wrong with the breakfast and it was great.
Disliked: The smell of damp, mould, or a smell similar to stale wet laundry on the 3rd floor and in our room, number 311 was very offensive. This is very concerning and needs to be sorted out immediately. I was going to request another room but since we were only staying the 2 nights and given the whole floor smelt the same, I just left it instead of causing a stir. But, I do have to say, it wasn’t pleasant and if we were staying longer, I would have complained. This may stop people from coming back to stay in my opinion & if it is a mould or damp issue, frankly, this is detrimental to guests health.
