The property has perfect location. It also is a very fun, unusual boutique hotel. But the rooms were exceedingly small. It really was not comfortable for two people in a room.

The place is a bit of a maze and quite dark, but it's beautifully decorated and the staff is incredibly attentive and helpful. It was very comfy, and the cabin room wasn't as small as I was expecting which was nice. It's excellent for a short stay, but I don't think I could deal with the wet room bathroom for an extended time period.

This beautiful boutique hotel is perfectly situated a block from the Royal mile and an easy walk to everywhere we wanted to go. The room was so comfortable and beautifully eclectic with all the amenities you’d ever want. The best part by far is the hotel staff. They seem to anticipate all of our needs and took care of us like we were the most important customers they’d ever had. I highly recommend the House of Gods to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

Style over substance unfortunately. Some rooms larger but if you're unlucky you'll find yourself in a tiny, stuffy cabin with nowhere to put luggage or toiletries. Lumpy bed. An alright stay.

I had a truly outstanding visit to House of Gods. After booking I engaged with their team through an easy to use and responsive WhatsApp service. On arrival, I was greeted by the team and taken to my room and orientated. The room was stunning and truly switched off the outside world to relax in elegant luxury. The breakfast was beautifully presented in a hamper in the comfort of my room which was great. I loved my stay, and I’ll be looking for opportunities to go back!

The hotel location is super convenient and the very helpful staff are the main takeaways for me. Cleanliness was good. The only thing in the downside is the room size which really small.....however for a lone traveller like was not a big issue. The bed was good as I slept really well.....and this is important 🙌.......a downside was the breakfast as an extra with a cost of 20 pounds. Overall a positive experience

Not as expected, booked a cabin room very small for 2 people, both could not get ready at the same time and dark. Bathroom was very small and no fan for the shower, looks like it may have been removed for repair.
