My wife and I have just had a short break here. Situated in the 'New Town' the first thing of notice in this two hundred year old town house is the impressive stair case. Decorated to a high standard in a period theme that suits the age of the property we were impressed. Being in the business ourselves we can... more

On arrival for our two night stay, we were greeted by Ian (the host) who was friendly and he led us to our standard room, which was a very disappointing basic attic room on the top (third) floor. We are in our thirties and fit so the stairs were manageable, so not suitable for the unfit or infirm. The standard... more

It is a six bedroom house that used to belong to a wealthy family and is now a bed and breakfast. Since the rooms were less expensive than staying in some of the hotels and it’s half a block away from Queen Street and five minutes walking from downtown, I figured it would be a good idea. It was positively... more

A wonderful Georgian town house in New Town Edinburgh. Our superior room was spacious, comfortable and quiet. Breakfasts were excellent, and the location is right near the bus with easy access to taxis. We enjoyed the fact that during the Festival, New Town is much quieter than many other parts of the city but has very easy access to the... more

After staying at the Davenport House hotel for 3 nights last year then deciding to return for the Tattoo this year we both decided that there was only one place to stay. The Davenport House has a magic all of its own. The room and house is just so beautiful and those gorgeous breakfasts have to be seen to be... more

Davenport House is stylish and well-located, with friendly staff and prices that compare well to other accommodation we looked at in Edinburgh. We stayed in a superior room for four nights and found it comfortable, with thoughtful touches such as provision of a mini fridge and corkscrew/bottle opener. I would have liked a little more choice for the cooked breakfast... more

We visited this hotel for a one night stay in October 07and can only give positive comments. This is a beautiful house which has been transformed into a very comfortable plush hotel with lovely touches to add an air of luxury. The room was roomy with ensuite bathroom and all decorated to a very high standard, with plush furnishings and... more

This property was beautifully cared for, our room was gorgeously decorated (we did get the superior type, they were booked out of the others), and the property manager -- a lady -- was delightful. Breakfast was delicious and well worth waking up for the hot option. The location was a bit of a hike from the Royal Mile, but once... more

My husband and I stayed on night at Davenport House.The lovely NZ lady that checked us in was a pleasure to talk to. I wish I had booked a larger superior room but seeing as it was only one night it didn't really matter but a longer stay you would have wanted more room. The decor is gorgeous, really pretty... more
