Charming place with so much character! Loved the art and the history! We stayed on the 3rd floor, where it was peaceful and quiet. It was a great way to celebrate my husband’s birthday! Cozy and relaxed on a rainy fall day.

Lovely stay at The Davidson

I loved my stay at the Davidson! It is a beautiful, historic St. Paul property that was clearly restored with deep care. The building itself is quiet. My room had a great view of St. Paul, and the ample windows provided lovely morning sunlight. I will absolutely return on my next stay in the Twin Cities!

Stay again in the future cause felt like the past.

Stayed for a weekend getaway. The Summit Ave neighborhood is wonderful to walk around. The back yard has a wonderful view of the Mississippi river valley. Although, the grounds could use some attending to. The two-room suite was very spacious and there seemed to be hidden treasures all over the suite. Looking forward to staying here again in the future cause it felt like walking in the past.

A very elegant property. That said, we wondered why the area behind the home, which rooms overlook, was so unkempt. With little effort this could be remedied. Will we ever be able to use the front door? That said, a very elegant property…
