What Our Clients Say

“The location, on-site accommodation, conference and sporting facilities provided an excellent setting for our course and practical workshops. The first rate, professional service received before, during and after the event means that we would have no hesitation in recommending Heriot Watt University at Heriot-Watt University and would consider the venue for our future needs.”

Euan Dorward, Events Officer
Scottish Golf Union

“You have a first-class conference set up with a magnificent conference team – you can be rightly proud of both the facility and yourselves. It has been a privilege to work with you all. Thank you for helping us to put on a unique and once in a lifetime experience.”

Sally McMath
Chairman, Girlguiding UK Planning Team

“From point of enquiry to delivery on the day the service was outstanding. It was a pleasure to work with such a flexible, knowledgeable and professional team. A fantastic venue, with superb facilities and excellent staff: top marks all round!”

M McGauchrane, Events, NHS National Health Services Scotland

As conference organiser to HEART UK, I found the team at the University including the conference office, audio visual, caterers and porters to be professional, punctual and friendly. No request was too much and was achieved in a fast and efficient manner. Rooms were re-set within good time and everyone worked hard to deliver a first class event.

Heriot-Watt University is a first-rate conference facility and I enjoyed working with such a professional and friendly team. It really does make all the difference which allowed Wheldon Events to focus on the client and delegates needs. I look forward to having another opportunity to work with Heriot Watt University at Heriot Watt.
