“Perfect Host”

Rowena Watts is the perfect host -- helpful, accommodating and friendly, but not intrusive. The rooms are in the best of conditions -- everything is impeccably clean (to a 4 star hotel standard), appropriately roomy for an urban location, and tastefully decorated. The breakfast service is awesome and as good as the food you'd find in better restaurants. As a plus, everything is homemade. The neighborhood is a little far from city center. However, the location is served very well by a bus that comes frequently and it's only a 10-15 min bus ride to the city center. Also, the location is close to Leith, and getting there is easy on a nice walking/running/biking path along one of the canals (the Waters of Leith).

“Edinburghs hidden gem”

We entered the guest house through a beautifully kept garden. The entrance hall was light and airy with some lovely Georgian features, such as the tiled floor. There were some lovely plants and the wall decorations were very tasteful. We were greeted with a smile and shown to our room, which was clean, neat and comfortable (the beds were excellent) The shower room was modern and very clean. The dining room was light and airy with beautiful white linen and china on the tables. The breakfast menu was varied, and we had the traditional Scottish breakfast. It was served fresh cooked, Hot and delicious. Once again served with a smile. We travelled into Edinburgh on the bus which stopped outside the Sheridan every 15 minutes. I really cannot find fault with anything regarding the Sheridan and I cant wait to go back again, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Edinburgh

“If i go back to Edinburgh i will deffinately stay at the Sheridan again”

If i go back to Edinburgh i will deffinately stay at the Sheridan again and i will recomend this guest house to anyone else going there! its a beautiful house, the rooms are very clean and comfortable, on suit small but spotless and functional, lighting and mirrors excellent for putting on make up etc, better than any hotel!! our party was 2 couples so obviously we had 2 rooms and both were to the same high standard. The breakfast choice, quality, presentation was superb as was the service. Many hotels could learn a thing or 2 from this guest house. We were greeted on arrival with a warm friendly smile, nothing was too much trouble, this was so right up until we checked out!! A most pleasurable stay - thank you.

“5 star landlady”

The proprietor, Rowena, is the loveliest and most helpful person. Nothing is too much trouble and she does everything with a double helping of humour. The whole place has a fresh, spacious and relaxing feel which considering the size of my room ( bijou) is remarkable. The best use of space is made everywhere. Breakfast is superb - not your average choice and in a quiet suburb of Leith you will come away feeling rested, whether you're there for business or pleasure.
