Tom and Rowena are gorgeous hosts in this beautiful place in Leith.
The breakfast options are aplenty, on top of a good small buffet of fruit, yoghurt and cold cuts.
Our room was comfortable, clean and homely. The only downside was the bathroom and toilet were kinda tiny so just take it into account if you need more space.
Would definitely stay again 10/10 recommend this to others - as it's within 3 minutes' walk of at least 3 different bus routes.

If the 14 days we traveled, this was our favorite place to stay. They let us check in early. We were given great explanations of the bus system and how to get around town. Also excellent dining recommendations. Breakfast was exceptional and varied. Our bed was comfortable and supportive. Everything was clean and beautifully kept. The garden is magnificent. Tom and Rowena the hosts are lovely people who really care about service . Highly recommend this for travelers. There are many stairs so if you have mobility issues, it will be challenging, but worth it.

This is a lovely home away from home. The amenities in the room are top notch no lie! It is less than 2 miles to Waverly Station and is easily accessible by bus #7, #11, and #14 where bus stops are literally a few steps from the residence. Botanical Garden is a walking distance and Leith is just a hop away. Breakfast is made to order daily where Rowena does her magic in the kitchen. Breads, cookies, and Jams are homemade and are divine!
Tom and Rowena made our stay in Edinburgh extra special and will not hesitate to stay with them again.

The food was the best out of the three B&Bs we stayed in on our recent trip to Scotland. The cleanliness was outstanding. The bathroom in both of our rooms were very small and my room was really only good for one person, but this is a two hundred year old terrace home. It’s a little off the beaten track and is most definately a 10/15 minute bus ride to the centre of the old city of Edinburgh. There is really nothing in the neighbourhood you have to walk 20/30 minutes or take a bus to do anything. But it’s really very nice.

As bed and breakfasts go, you can't ask for much better than Sheridan Guest House. Tom and Rowena are wonderful hosts, there is easy public transport access to city center and the biggest unsung treasure is if you like leisurely walks. The Guest House is located steps away from the Water of Leith trail which is scenic and takes you by foot to numerous sites of interest throughout Edinburgh. I had a delightful stay and would jump at the opportunity to go back.

Beautiful garden in the front and back. Convenient to downtown Edinburgh sights and the train station by a short ride on the #11 bus. Or ride in the other direction on the # 11 (or walk the Leith path) and enjoy the Leith harbor scene and the Britannia ship. Great place to stay in Edinburgh without paying the high in-town rate.

This is a wonderful Guest House the oweners Rowena and Tom were so welcoming
all the food was freshly prepared by the gorgeous Rowena delicious in taste and
a wonderful variety of fresh produce . We were given lots of information and the bus
stop is so close by and 10 minutes to the city. I could not say which breakfast was the
best as they were all so good , but I did sample the pancakes more than once , we stayed for a week it was our first time in Edinburgh, the home made jams and delicious
home made bread were so good as well as the home made cookies left in our room
each day + chocolate treats no Hotel we stayed in could match this lovely home.
We both hope to visit again next year the location is good and quite at night . The Guest House is absolutely spotless and very charming throughout a great find so close
to the city . Thanks again Rowen and Tom.

Did not walk into city but understand walk is about 40 mins.

A lady called Rowena and her partner run the Sheridan Guest House and they are delightful - very friendly and welcoming. The guest house itself is spotlessly clean and very comfortable and the breakfast is amazing - a range of dishes to choose from, all beautifully cooked by Rowena. Couldn't fault anything!

Lovely local b&b

Loved staying here and cannot recommend it enough. Rowena and her husband are extremely inviting and attentive hosts offering one of the best locally sourced and freshly cooked breakfasts we've experienced.
Room was clean and tidy with comfy bed and smart en suite.
Highlight was definitely the little personal touches such as the homemade biscuits in the room everyday. Will definitely be coming back.

Fabulous

Beautiful guest house. Spotlessly clean. Delicious breakfasts. Bus stop right outside to take you to the city, buses run every 10 mins.
Rowena is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, very happy and smiley and can't do enough for you.
Would not hesitate to stay here again.

First class accomodation in Edinburgh.

We spent three very comfortable nights during the festival. Tom & Rowena are wonderful hosts. Everything was perfect-the accommodation, the breakfasts, the service.
Excellent bus links to the city and the Leith ocean terminal.
Highly recommend this Guest House. We will certainly stay on our next visit to Edinburgh.

\nEdinburgh B&B

Although the Sheridan is in Edinburgh it is actually much closer (walking distance) to Leith. The room we had was on the third floor and was very clean and usable however very tiny and watch your head on the dormers. The Number 11 bus to Prices Street was just outside the front door and ran about every 10 to 15 minutes. Taxi from the train station cost about 8 pounds. There was a nice pedestrian walk to Leith but Edinburgh itself was best done by bus. There was one restaurant nearby (the Victoria hotel or something like that) but otherwise you walked to Leith.
The breakfast served at the B&B was wonderful.

Home away from home

This guest house was amazing, from the moment we arrived Rowena made us feel like family, she couldn't have done any more to make our stay better. The rooms were really clean & comfortable, location was quiet but had two pubs within close walking distance. Breakfast was great & Rowena was happy to help with location information to make our sightseeing enjoyable. Loved everything about this place!

Our favorite!

This is a beautiful Guest House, run by lovely people! It was by far our favorite stay during our two week trip to the U.K. We had a beautiful room with a huge window overlooking the garden. It was quiet, we slept well and the food far exceeded our expectations.

Top Notch!!

My husband and I stayed at Sheridan Guest House in April and had a wonderful stay there.

If you are looking for a “modern” place to stay with a big room/bathroom located in the center of Edinburgh, then this place is not for you. But if you are looking for a beautiful, quaint, super clean, comfortable, away from the busy area guest house where home baked cookies are left in your room every single day, then this is the place for you.

Fresh flowers throughout the house, Egyptian cotton linens, beautiful art works are some of the attention-to-detail things you will see there.

But the best part was being greeted by Rowena and her smile every morning as she served us her amazing breakfast. She is so sweet and funny. Everything we had (Scottish breakfast, apple cinnamon porridge, smoked salmon with eggs, pancakes) was sooooooooo delicious. We still talk about her pancakes….. The charming dining room made us feel like we were eating at a fancy 5 star restaurant 

We love walking so we took advantage of the walking path which starts from the end of Bonnington Grove and walked to the center of Edinburgh every day. If you are not into walking, the bus line #11 is right across the street and will take you to the city center in less than 10 minutes.

This guest house is truly a gem. Thank you Rowena for making our stay in Edinburgh so special!

Sunshine in Leith

A wee gem of a guest house. Lovely hostess and great value for money. Just back from weekend here, parked car right outside on Friday night and never touched it again until leaving Edinburgh on Sunday evening. The shower was superb for pressure, and the toilet limited for space but not an inconvenience at all. Decor is good and house is very clean, with a lovely breakfast room and lovely and filling breakfast each morning (the homemade pancakes with bacon and maple syrup were a treat). Off main buzz of Edinburgh but short distance on 11 bus from right outside.

Excellent Hotel and Hosts

As I've never stayed in a B&B before, I was slightly hesitant to book one for our stay in Edinburgh. Having seen fantastic reviews about the Sheridan B&B, I thought I'd give it a go.

The Sheridan is by far, better than any hotel I've stayed at. The room was spacious, clean and really well presented/decorated. The breakfast was all freshly made and tasted really good.

The owner, Rowena, was extremely friendly and helpful and it made our stay one to remember. We definitely want to visit Edinburgh again and will definitely stay here again!

Very nice guest house - highly recommended

This place was a joy to stay in! The owners are very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The location was good; not too far out and conveniently on the bus line. Breakfasts were outstanding! Room was comfortable. Bathroom was small and noisy (fan and flushing) but workable and lots of amenities were supplied. Overall, Sheridan House was great!

Great B & B that gives a real Scottish experience.

We were met by Tom and Rowena the afternoon we were due to check in. They immediately made us feel at home in theirs. The breakfasts were hot and flavorful with plenty to eat. They prepared lunches for us when we missed the morning meal when we traveled. The room was extra clean and maintained daily. Taxi's, buses and other transportation is easily accessed from the house. All reasonable requests are met, (I asked for and received extra pillows), taxi's were arranged by Tom the night before we needed them. A truly wonderful couple who will go the extra mile to ensure your stay is pleasant.

Lovely house, great host, great breakfast

Loved my stay of a few days. Rowena's so nice & courteous. The place is spotless, with attention to detail everywhere. My double room was perfect except for the compact en-suite bathroom which was too compact! Anyway I managed ok, and was very happy overall with the standard of this b&b.
There was an old building \"aroma\" in my room, but I got used to it over the few days. The loo didn't have a good flush.
The property is a good bit out from the city centre, but there's an excellent bus service to the city, with the no 11 bus stop right across the road.
Overall, the b&b was great value for money for lovely spotless top class accomodation.
So stay away from the city high prices where you will have to pay $$$$, €€€€ for accomodation and for breakfast, and instead stay here in this lovely place, and avail of the regular bus service to the city. You'll have more money in your pocket!

We would highly recommend this bed and breakfast and will definitely stay here again when we return to Edinburgh. Location was ideal - with easy parking and access to Edinburgh either by foot - approx 25 minutes or the frequent bus service. Rowenna was warm and welcoming. Nice little touches liy home made biscuits in the room every night☺.

Feel at home while exploring Scotland

The Sheridan was beautiful and clean. Everything was high quality and Rowena was friendly, funny, and gave wonderful recommendations and directions. It is the perfect location: I could walk anywhere I wanted in Leith or I could walk into Edinburgh if I wanted. I felt safe and secure during the entirety of my stay. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and fresh! I cannot wait to go back again. I definitely recommend that you stay here! You won't find a better place!

Easy bus ride to sights

The hosts at the Sheridan Guest House made every effort to make our stay in Edinburgh a pleasant one. The bus stop was just across the street which made travel cheap and easy. (The buses in Edinburgh were frequent and on time, too!) Breakfast at the Sheridan Guest House was excellent and the dining room was beautiful. Service was equal to a fine restaurant. If I return to Edinburgh, I will certainly want to stay here again.
