"Following on from the brand's Edinburgh debut, this opening will spotlight more of the same, namely: “velvety opulence, neon signage against Gucci heron wallpaper and an atmosphere of playful debauchery.”"

Our evening at the House of Gods Hotel was amazing from start to finish. The staff were genuinely lovely and incredibly attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. We loved the setup and theme of the hotel—it has a unique, intimate atmosphere with its darker hallways, which really adds to the allure and character of the place. The extra touches really stood out—especially the milk and cookies, which were a delightful treat, and the breakfast hampers, which were a perfect way to start the day. We thoroughly enjoyed the decadent ambiance, and the espresso martinis were absolutely delicious. We stayed in a cabin room, which we loved. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the attention to detail in the room added to the overall experience. We were thoroughly impressed with everything and can’t wait to return. House of Gods is a hidden gem, and we’re already looking forward to our next stay!

Outstanding from start to finish :) we visited for a cheeky night away and we had the treat me like I’m famous package booked which when entering the room it was super. Staff were amazing and couldn’t be more accommodating! Cocktail bar area was nice and intimate and the cocktails were exceptional! We thought the room was great even tho when reading other peoples reviews that the rooms are tiny and with there being no windows others thought it wasn’t ideal but we just thought it was a fine size and unique, nice comfy bed and amazing lighting to give it that extra seductive vibe to it :) breakfast hamper in the morning was fab and just perfect. ||Checking out process was nice and easy, we can honestly say our stay was excellent & we cannot wait to come back and stay again ! Thank you for an amazing experience

We stayed here as received a voucher for the Famous package. We originally booked a cabin room and then paid £40 to upgrade to a 4 poster. The room size was shockingly small, so I dread to think how much smaller the cabin would have been. The hotel is dark and felt like a basement. It didn't feel clean we found hairs in the bed. There was no storage space and with the limited space this made it worse. There were no windows in the bedrooms nor bathroom, so there was an awful drain smell. The Famous package included milk and cookies which came with sweets. The breakfast was a small hamper with a bagel and orange juice. Not enough to fill you for the morning. Location was good as only 10 minute walk into the centre, however we wouldn't return and definitely do not think it is value for money.

Don’t believe the Instagram hype. ||We were really disappointed in our recent stay at house of gods Edinburgh. We had paid extra for the ‘treat me like I’m famous’ package. The room didn’t have rose petals, the box of chocolates were tiny unlike when it’s advertised. We also had to remind the staff about our cocktails we had paid for to be made. The staff were good, lovely.||The cocktail bar is also very small, it’s all on one floor.|Our bedroom was so small that we couldn’t sit in. I knew it was going to be small but just not as small as it was. No window which made it very difficult to stay in the room. The bed was wall to wall with no room to even sit anywhere in the room. Literally your bed and that’s it ( and yes I know it’s supposed to be a cabin). |We also didn’t receive our morning mimosa’s and we had to contact the hotel to get our breakfast even tho we had already discussed a time for that to come. The hotel doesn’t have any restaurant so it’s a continental breakfast.||At night the bar was very busy and not enough staff on to keep up with the demanding drinks orders coming in. We felt sorry for the cracking cocktail staff as they done everything they could to make it lovely for us. ||The ability to ring/text for milk and cookies was probably the best thing about the hotel. I wouldn’t go back but I’m glad we experienced it, it’s just not worth the money or the hype. I just wish it was advertised to a point of realness so people aren’t disappointed. It was for a special birthday and the hotel really put a bit of a damper on the day at first. |Hoping to try out the Glasgow cocktail bar with all hopes it’s as good as the advertisement.

What a great spot! Perfect service from start to finish- thanks especially to Murray at the desk and Jake at the bar! It's a bit like staying on an old and very well appointed ship. Yes the rooms are small, but who is spending that much time in their hotel room on a city vacation??? The bed was very comfortable, there were plenty of outlets in the right places, and everything was spotless. Those things are great to have, but you can find them at any mid-range hotel. What sets this place apart is the service. NEXT LEVEL. We felt so welcome from the very first minute, and by day two, it was as if we were staying at the home of good friends who anticipated and catered to every need. It's the best hotel service I have experienced in years, even at places 3x this price point. Bravo, House of Gods Edinburgh! We will be back!

Nice and bohemian, staff were great and the room was also amazing. |You simply press a button and Prosecco or a butler or cookies and milk will be brought to your room. |Lovely cocktails. |Fairly central and definitely worth a visit any time of the year.

We have just stayed here for 2 nights and wow it was fabulous! The staff are fantastic, especially Murray! Service was superb, really felt special. The rooms are definitely sexy and even though they are compact, they are opulent and comfortable! The only downside for me was there was no window to open but the air conditioning was very good. The location was just off the Royal Mile and perfect for sightseeing! Will definitely be staying again 5⭐️ xxx
