My wife and I spent two nights at The Howard, dining in their Atholl restaurant both nights and we really enjoyed our stay. The old style bedroom was large and comfortable and had a huge bathroom and a walk-in closet. The butler service was excellent and we found the food fantastic in quality and really good value when bought as... More

This hotel does not deserve a 5 star at all. Very pricey therefore you would expect excellence in all domains. The breakfast was good. Decor is tired. Bathroom very nice but lacking in practical details. You would expect a replacement of complimentary shower gel etc, however for 3 nights only had one sample of each, rather mean. Would have loved...

We stayed in the Fettes room at £140 B&B for one night (I'm glad it was only one night!) The decor was dated and there was a clear lack of attention to detail in the rooms (cheap furniture, chipped picture frames and flaking wallpaper). We also had to stand at the checkin/check out whilst the staff sat down. The staff... More

Situated in a row of classic Georgian townhouses in New Town, this hotel was extremely welcoming and comfortable. I can recommend the kitchen for dinner. My room was a good size with a magnificent bathroom which had the largest footed tub I've ever had the pleasure to soak in. A separate closet-room, which helped me keep my mess (of shopping,... More

We stayed 5 nigths at The Howard and both the Hotel and the staff were superb. The butler service was great and the staff could not have done more to make you feel welcome Next trip to Edinburgh we'll stay again at The Howard. More

We had a nice 3 night stay at the Howard. Maybe the only negative thing was that our terraced suite was more like a basement suite... It was in the basement and that's why quite dark. The bathroom was really spacious and beautiful. Butler service was excellent all the time. And we loved the breakfasts! More

We stayed at The Howard for one night and were very impressed. Our room was big and the bathroom was super complete with large roll top bath. The breakfast was terrific - served on hot plates! The butler service was swift and the staff could not have done more to make you feel welcome. Would recommend it without hesitation and... More

It was a toss up between The Howard and The Missoni. Had we known that the weather was to be amazing, sunny and warm, we would have gone for the Missoni, but our thoughts were "modern, hard surfaces, not cosy in the cold". The Howard is excellent and really good value, the price of an Ibis in Northern France! The... More

One of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. It was relaxed luxury. I booked the hotel the night before and called to confirm all the details at the time asking if we could add the whisky tasting to our booking despite the website saying it would need seven days advanced booking. Nothing was too much trouble for the... More
