The Spotlight on Voco Edinburgh Royal Terrace

Stylish and Serene Stay Near the Action

Modern comfort meets classic elegance at Voco Edinburgh Royal Terrace, a 4-star escape tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in central Edinburgh. Just a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley Station and bustling Princes Street, this hotel offers a peaceful retreat without sacrificing location. With garden views, sleek décor, and a relaxed atmosphere, it’s a smart pick for music fans looking to mix their gig night with some well-earned rest.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the hotel's proximity to venues near Princes Street and the city centre, while still enjoying a peaceful night's sleep thanks to its residential setting. It’s just a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley Rail Station, making late-night transport easy. The 12:00 check-out is ideal for those who’ve danced the night away, and the 24-hour room service means you’re never too late for a bite.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a stylish base close to the city's nightlife
  • Solo travelers on a mission to see their favorite artist
  • Couples making a romantic weekend of it
  • Fans wanting a quieter place to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers looking for value in a 4-star setting

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Terrace Brasserie serves up casual bistro fare using fresh local ingredients, and there’s a bar/lounge with a snack menu for lighter bites. Craving something after the encore? The hotel offers 24-hour room service. Breakfast is served late enough to suit those who hit snooze after a big night out.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on-site, you’re just a stroll from some of Edinburgh’s best bars and clubs. The hotel bar is a relaxed spot for a nightcap featuring local spirits, and the surrounding area offers plenty of walkable nightlife, whether you’re into cocktails or cozy pubs.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s quiet location that’s still central, the comfortable and spacious rooms, and the friendly staff. Many mention how easy it is to get to and from gigs, especially with Waverley Station so close. The garden views and overall calm vibe are big pluses for those looking to unwind.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that rooms can feel a bit dated in certain areas, and others wished the on-site bar stayed open later. Still, these are minor trade-offs for the overall comfort and location.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to a show in Edinburgh and want a stylish, quiet hotel just minutes from the action, Voco Edinburgh Royal Terrace hits all the right notes.
