Friendly, efficient owners. Rooms well presented. The free WiFi is a great bonus for business travellers. Plenty off street parking outside. Some people seemed to be staying there to go to Edinburgh, as an alternative to saying in the middle of Edinburgh, which is feasible as it is less than 20 miles away. more

We have not stayed at the hotel but have had dinner on several occassions. Doreen is a great chef and Jim is the perfect mine host and thier 2 helpers are really good. Sevice is excellant. more

At first glance, this looks like your typical slightly dowdy B and B, but it's actually a bit of a gem. The decor may not be of the boutique hotel variety, but everything is clean and in good condition--the beds are comfortable, the rooms spotless, and the bathroom small but entirely serviceable. The owners, Jim and Doreen, are extremely friendly... more

Just back from a very pleasant stay in Davaar House with my young family, ages 3 and 2. What a lovely warm reception we received. Both Jim and Doreen are extremely friendly and welcoming.

I often stay away from home on business, but this was a leisure trip, so perhaps I was looking for above average value for money - maybe impossible when the Welsh rugby team are visiting Edinburgh!
