Voco Edinburgh - Royal Terrace, An Ihg Hotel Review

Impressions
The Crowne Plaza Edinburgh - Royal Terrace ticks all the boxes that a modern traveler desires. As soon as I entered, the hotel's state-of-the-art facilities impressed me. The Wi-Fi connection is strong and reliable, making it easy to stay connected and updated on everything. Luggage storage was also useful as it allowed me to explore the city with ease without feeling weighed down by my bags.
One of my biggest appreciations was for the flexibility they offered. I had a late check-in and needed to check out later than usual. But the 24-hour reception made this possible, and everything was handled efficiently by the staff. The bar/lounge area of the hotel is very chic, and the cocktails are must-tries! The restaurant also boasts some fantastic food, which was immaculately prepared and presented. As a welcome gift, they served me with a lovely welcome drink, which quickly made me feel at home at this place.
The hotel's fitness studio, indoor swimming pool, and sauna provide the opportunity for a relaxing workout session. After a busy day exploring the city, nothing beats a dip in the pool or relaxing with a book by the sauna. Laundry services were also available, which is handy when traveling for an extended period of time. I had a fantastic time at this property, and I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who wants to enjoy Edinburgh in style!.
