Room was clean and comfortable, with a nice range of tea/coffee and a good set of cutlery and crockery for nibbles at home base. Cleaning daily was fantastic and efficient. Well placed on the team for easy access into New Town and Old Town, and some lovely spots around the hotel itself for breakfast and drinks!

Beautiful place. Very happy to see an old town house being saved and renovated to a high standard. Pitty there was no place to leave luggage. Maybe get some large storage lockers with codes for the visitors in the main lobby. And maybe allow people in at 2pm not 4pm. Apart from that it was beautiful.

When I arrived in Scotland, I was having trouble with my eSIM. I needed my phone to be able to leave my luggage in the lockers provided. I was worried no one would be available to help me, because it is supposed to be self check-in. But a member of staff was there and since my room was ready, he carried my bag upstairs for me. This is a nice little place and Leith is a quiet neighborhood.

Contactless. No front desk which was fine by me. Room was great. Quiet and modern. Seems like a haul to the heart of Edinburg but you are a block away from the tram and it only costs two pounds for a quick ride up the street. Coming home it's slightly downhill which is a nice way to work of your drinks! Also Malones pub is just around the corner.

We were in Edinburgh for an extra few nights unexpectedly and booked “3 Johns Place” last minute. We absolutely loved it! The bed was comfortable, the room was spotless, the shower was new and modern. I would give it more stars if I could. Easy check-in, accommodating staff, beautiful facility. 12/10. We are slowly becoming anti-Air Bnb folks because of accommodations like this. A+ 3 Johns Place.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Nice place with well finished rooms and good service from staff. We really liked the north our hood including the nice community cafe and park across the street. It was an also a short walk from the tram as well as grocery stores and restaurants. We also liked that the staff were diligent in cleaning the room daily and restocked the complementary teas, coffee, water and biscuits. A couple minor complaints. The room we stayed in (Sailmaker) was in the basement with no window to the outside. This wasn’t clear in the room description though it should be highlighted more overtly as some may feel closed in without a window. The humidity level was also quite high in the room to the point where everything felt a bit damp. Installing a dehumidifier in the room would be helpful in addressing this. Regardless, we still had a good stay at 3 John’s Place.
