Frommer's Review
Dubbed one of the most discreet luxury hotels in the city, the Howard links a set of Georgian terraced houses in Northern New Town. Rooms are midsize to spacious, each unit individually and rather elegantly decorated, with some of the best bathrooms in town, featuring power and double showers and, in some, a Jacuzzi. Service is a hallmark of the Howard, with a dedicated butler who can tend to your individual needs, even unpacking your luggage, should you so desire.
Facilities:
Restaurant; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
