The Howard

The Howard is an intimate and discreet 5 star luxury Edinburgh hotel which occupies three Georgian townhouses in a super-convenient location in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town. The Howard hotel is classically elegant both outside and in, and has just 18 luxury rooms and suites, named after Edinburgh streets. In keeping with the character of the building, rich fabrics, oil paintings and opulent furnishings have been used to make this luxury Edinburgh hotel deeply comfortable - a 5-star home-from-home. You will quickly feel as though you have lived here forever! A key feature of the 5-Star service at The Howard is the butler - actually a collection of butlers, who take care of everything from car parking to ironing to late-night room service to theatre bookings. You will find them very useful, during your stay at The Howard.

Dining

The Atholl Restaurant: The Atholl started life as a private dining room for guests staying at the hotel. Its elegant, flower-filled Georgian setting, intimate atmosphere, fine wine list and expertly prepared modern Scottish menu drew an enthusiastic and knowledgeable local clientele as well, so the Atholl has gradually evolved into a much sought-after restaurant in Edinburgh. The Atholl only seats 14 people at a time, so be sure to reserve in advance. Afternoon Tea: Invented by the seventh Duchess of Bedford to curb her hunger pangs between breakfast and dinner back in the 1800’s, afternoon tea has become quite the thing to do when enjoying a leisurely hour or two with your friends and loved ones. Enjoy the famous Howard afternoon tea served by their friendly team of butlers in the elegant dining rooms from 2:00pm to 5:00pm daily. Room Service: As an alternative, if you are staying at The Howard Edinburgh Boutique hotel, you can order from the 24-hour room service menu, or from the lunch or dinner menus at the times below. Lunch and dinner can be served by private butler, in the comfort of your own room or suite.
