Super stay in Edinburgh

A really well located property that was exceptionally clean. The self service check was so easy to use and there was a comprehensive guide sent by text that gave instructions regarding all aspects of the room and stay. The tram stop was a 3 minute walk away and it was so easy to access Leith, Edinburgh and Newhaven. There were lots of places to eat and drink within a short walk or tram ride. I would thoroughly recommend this property for a visit to Edinburgh.

Great new addition to Leith.

3 John's Place was lovely. Easy check in, room decorated to a high standard. Great location and price. Will stay again and try to stay in the room with a bathtub next time.

This was the most beautiful and best-equipped hotel I’ve ever stayed at in the UK. Not a single stain or speck of dust in the room—everything was perfectly clean. The water drained smoothly, the towels were wonderfully comfortable, and the coffee machine was a nice touch. Truly a hidden gem. Even though it’s about a 30-minute walk from central Edinburgh, I would happily stay here again. The only small request I have for the hotel is about the coffee cups provided. They don’t match the size of the coffee machine, so the coffee tends to overflow unless you watch it closely. It would be great if the cups could be replaced with ones that fit properly.

Hidden gem!

If there was something higher, than the best review I would give it! Loved staying in Leith. Easy access into city center and perfect for coming back to you at the end of the day finding dinner and walking along the water.

Our stay at 3 John's Place was great. The Whalebone room was spacious and tidy, with a great view of the street and park. Amanda was super attentive and helpful via text and made our stay easy. She helped with an early check-in when we arrived earlier than expected and helped with storing our luggage on our depature day so we could explore more of the city before our flight. If/when we go back to Edinburgh we'll definitely look to book again!
