House of Gods launched in September 2019. The 22-room boutique hotel and cocktail bar – just off Edinburgh’s Royal Mile – is an OTT blend of maximalist interiors, lavish fabrics and hand-finished details polarised against an easy-going vibe.

House of Gods is an acute clash of styles, broken rules and a balance of opposites. We believe beige is blasphemy and more is more. From the rooms to the cocktail bar, the hotel is built to immerse you in a world of unapologetic extravagance.

The Lounge Bar features huge panels of Gucci Heron wallpaper, neon signs and Rosso Levanto Red Marble bartops. The refined nature clashes against a stream of resident DJs and an over-hanging giant disco ball, all paired with a bespoke cocktail menu inspired by tales of Hotel Rock N’ Roll debauchery. In a true balance of opposites, the rooms (from cabins to penthouses) are set in luxurious Pinot Noir velvet wall coverings, with private bars hidden behind antique mirrors and floor-to-ceiling marble in every oak-panelled ensuite. The hotel feels inspired by the cabins of the orient express juxtaposed with modern finishing where more is more – House of Gods offers up a world of unapologetic extravagance.
