The short answer
The Linen Harbour hotel register holds 30 verified five-star addresses across 10 cities. Each record says where it works, who it suits and where its classification was checked.
The register does not publish room prices or availability until a contracted provider can supply current terms.

Questions
What is the Linen Harbour hotel register?
A small editorial register of five-star hotels chosen for position, house character and a checkable classification. It is not a booking engine.
Does Linen Harbour list every five-star hotel?
No. The current edition covers 10 cities. A city is published only when the page can make useful distinctions rather than repeat a directory.
Can I book a hotel through Linen Harbour?
Not yet. Each record links to the hotel for current room information. Linen Harbour does not handle reservations, payments or cancellations.
Will hotel prices be added?
Only after a contracted accommodation provider can supply current rates, room terms and availability with clear attribution.
How is five-star status checked?
Every published hotel record names the source used to verify the classification and the date on which it was checked.
Why does the register use city photographs?
The current images establish destination and carry visible reuse credits. Hotel photography will be added only where reuse rights are explicit.
