voco Edinburgh - Royal Terrace, an IHG Hotel

Location was fantastic for us. It's not in the main city area but we preferred this as it was nice and quiet yet still just a short walk to most places. It's also very close to Calton hill and a short walk to Arthur's seat (well, the start of the trail at least). Plenty of restaurants and busses within walking distance. Room was gorgeous and spacious, with a great view. Breakfast was very convenient and tasty with lots of options, overall great value for money.

Cleanliness, size, interior, breakfast.

From start to finish, my stay at VOCO was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome. They were incredibly friendly, always smiling, and genuinely eager to help with anything we needed. It was clear that they take pride in their work and in making guests feel at home. The accommodations were nothing short of exceptional. We were pleasantly surprised to find that we had been upgraded to a stunning suite. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had all the luxurious touches we could have asked for. The attention to detail in the room, from the plush bedding to the high-end amenities, truly exceeded our expectations. My partner and I were both so impressed by the comfort and style of the space. I couldn’t recommend VOCO more highly. The combination of excellent service, amazing facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere made it a truly memorable experience. We’re already looking forward to our next visit, and we’ll definitely be coming back. Whether you’re traveling for business or leisure, this is the place to stay!

The hotel was perfectly located close to the hustle and bustle of Princes Street but not right on it, and there was therefore a residential feel as the hotel's street was fairly quiet. Front desk staff were warm, friendly and very helpful with great tips and suggestions for our stay. Housekeeping staff were swift to respond to our request for an extra blanket. We loved the room, gorgeous view of back terrace and garden, large comfortable bed, nice bathroom fixtures and easy to use coffee/tea service in the room. The breakfast was a lovely authentic Scottish buffet and delicious. The interior of the hotel common areas was tastefully decorated and the atmosphere to dine, have a drink or just sit was quite pleasant.

Firstly, the staff at this hotel are increadible and made our stay. We had some trouble with the heating in our room, and the staff went above and beyond to try to fix it for us. The breakfast was great with a well assorted buffet, in addition, one could order an item from the a la carte menu. The hotel is also a bit off the main road, but still very central and close to both bus and tram stations
