House of Gods Royal Mile

Location: The hotel has an excellent location in the heart of Edinburgh, within walking distance to major attractions like The Royal Mile, Victoria Street, and Edinburgh Castle, making it ideal for exploring the city easily.

Dreadful hotel not worth even half the cost, small reception entrance doubling up as a cocktail bar, claustrophobic room that could do with a good clean…….had to squeeze sideways up the bed on one side to get in, no windows ( apart from one that overlooked a brightly lit passage poorly covered by a blind that disturbed our sleep ) vent in the floor that sounded like aircon running on full. No tea/coffee facilities not that there was room for any. Tiny bathroom with broken glass on the shower floor and a wobbly toilet. Extremely disappointing!

I was treated to an overnight stay by my fiancé for my 50th birthday celebration.  I was super excited to be staying in House of Gods! Everything was kept a surprise until the morning of my birthday. I can honestly say that I haven't experienced anything like it before!  The hotel was somewhat gothic, luxurious, opulent and really glamorous.  Stunning room with 4 poster bed, beautiful furnishings and fixtures. Yes the room is compact but it certainly had the Wow factor.   Included for us was Treat me Like your Famous package. If you can't feel like your a famous star on your 50th then when can you!   Every single piece of service and detail was spot on. The service was above and beyond anything I expected or imagined. The minute we arrived we got such a warm welcome, a glass of Prosecco which we enjoyed in the stunning cocktail bar. Whilst our luggage and jackets were taken to our room. We then were taken through our options for room service cocktails, booked for cocktails in the lounge and also breakfast hamper choices.  The room was decorated with gold petals, balloons, there was a bottle of Prosecco on ice and the most decadent chocolate selection. We had the butler cocktail service to the room which was amazing, so special ans the Millionaires cocktail was delicious.  We enjoyed a further few cocktails down in the lounge. The selection was amazing, spoiled for choice.  The Rum Rum Rudolph was a favourite.   When we returned in the evening we had a nightcap and retired to our room. Tv had Netflix  amazon etc We pressed for service and hot fresh baked cookies arrived, glasses of milk and other sweet treats.  Our breakfast hamper was delightful, really lovely products and presented beautifully. The mimosas went down a treat.  Super comfortable bed really luxurious bedding, pillows etc we didn't want to leave! The staff went above and beyond and the whole experience from start to finish was one I shall never forget. Utterly perfect and out of this world. Thank you House of (oh my) God's
