The Atholl At The Howard

This place is outstanding if you like quality relaxing time. The service is impeccable and quietly attentive. Food is served in either the dining room or the drawing room (bar) and is of a god standard. Wide selection of drinks and a generally peaceful and civilised environment in which to enjoy them. This is a boutique hotel and deserving of a five star label.

This is quite possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in, staff are on hand 24 hours and will bring you tea, polish your shoes or take care of any other issues regardless of the time. The breakfast was out of this world and is worth staying here for on it's own! Excellent location, parking is available right outside and the overall experience made it one of my best and most memorable hotel stays.

The Howard is an excellent hotel one of the best in Edinburg and Scotland. The staff are so helpful getting our bags, parking the car, suggesting places to see and eat, late night food and drinks at the bar. Breakfast is absolutely worth having with the Howard as is afternoon tea. Great stay hope to come again and would recommend to anyone.

The location is a little bit hard to find because it looks so similar with the other houses. But, the hotel itself is superb! Unexpectedly great service and great interior. Feels old yet authentic at once! The breakfast is good too, there's a dedicated waiter for your table. Overall, I enjoyed my stay there!

While The Howard is not residing in a central location of Edinburgh, I found having it only a few blocks from the center of town better since tourists and noise level were at a minimum. It made the experience more relaxing, especially given the number of people who were willing to help you. I don't think I carried my bags once. Besides that, the rooms were beautiful. The beds luxurious; and splurging on the tasting dinner was well worth it. The chef at this hotel was a wonderful cook! I would go back again and again and recommend my family and friends to do so as well.

We stayed a single night in the Howard hotel and were very happy with our experience. The hotel is old-world very well located and in a lovely building. The staff are friendly and always ready to help. The dinner was excellent and the breakfast wonderful. The long bath in the en-suite meant you could stretch out and relax and the hotel felt intimate and hidden. I would totally recommend it.
