L is a consonant but it would make absolute sense if it was a vowel. Same with R.

Actually, kind of 'yes' it is - it receives special treatment when the 'h' is silent in correct English followed by a vowel. For instance, 'an hotel,' 'an hospital,' 'an honour,' etc.

In correctly spoken English, we say 'an otel' but write 'an hotel.'

Why do you say an hour when h is not a vowel?

An hour is proper grammar. Since the "H" is silent, the emphasis is on the "O" which is a vowel ... "AN" would be used in front of any word beginning with a vowel.One says an hour. It is both common and correct. Hour, along with other words beginning with h which have come from French, like 'honest', have a silent letter h. "An" is used with nouns which begin with a vowel sound, not just with a vowel, so a noun which begins with a silent consonant (which would pretty much have to be H) also would use "an."

In the second syllable in the word rhythm isn't the H used as a vowel?

No, the letter 'h' is not a vowel and can never be used as one. In the word 'rhythm' the 'th' combination forms a single consonant sound; the 'h' has no separate function. Strictly speaking the word consists of a single syllable, although in order to pronounce it it is necessary to introduce a brief indeterminate vowel sound between the 'th' and the 'm' sounds.
