The result was   merge to Swissôtel. No consensus for deletion, but lack of sources should preclude a separate article. A brief mention in the article about the greater chain should suffice until/unless sources are found. Shimeru (talk) 00:20, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Swissôtel The Howard

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A non-notable subsidiary of Swissôtel per WP:CHAIN. While other hotels of the kind may have architectural features making them notable, I can't see any such references in this article.

 * Stubbify and merge to Hotels in London or Swissôtel. This is a non-notable branch of a chain with no particular distinguishing features; Britain is not a member of the World Hotel Rating system, and thus "Five star hotel" is a meaningless marketing term used by hotel marketing departments. (A hotel will often describe itself as three-star, four-star, five-star etc in different publications/websites, depending on whether they're emphasising value or luxury to that particular market.) See this discussion from the time I previously prodded this article (and others in the series) for my thoughts in full as to why I don't believe the individual branches of hotel chains warrant stand-alone articles unless they're of particular historic or architectural significance. – iride  scent  15:39, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
