For Games awarded through 2014, the only city that begins with an 'H' that has hosted the Olympics is Helsinki, Finland which hosted the 1952 Summer Olympics.
The Olympics are in a different city each time they are held. Cities put in 'bids' with the International Olympic Committee in an attempt to get selected by the IOC to hold the Olympic Games. The IOC selects the cities that will hold the Olympics many years in advance. A link below shows all the cities that have hosted the games.

Montreal (1976 summer olympics) Calgary (1988 winter olympics) Vancouver (2010 winter olympics)
For the 2012 London Olympics, the torch traveled 8,000 miles. It passed through 1,000 cities in 70 days, including Bristol, Cardiff, Liverpool, Belfast, Aberdeen, and Newcastle.
In the modern olympics, countries and cities takes turns hosting the olympics. So it's different from time to time.
The Olympics in 2014 are in Sochi, Russia. In 2016 they are in Rio de Janeiro. The 2018 Olympics are in PyeongChang. In 2020, the candidate cities are Madrd, Tokyo, and Istanbul. I'm not sure what the 2022 Olympic cities are. Hope this helped!
Olympic host cities are chosen by the Olympic Committee. Cities that want to host the game submit a proposal which the committee examines, and based on a long list of criteria, selects the one they believe is best suited to host the games. Statford was a good place to choose for the Olympics because it is spacious and it has a n effiecient transport system. Read more: Why was stratford chosen for 2012 Olympics
The city that wanted to host the Games and the National Olympic Committee of New Zealand would be responsible. A formal proposal would be made by the city through the New Zealand National Olympic Committee to the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The IOC would send a questionnaire to the city that wanted to host the Olympics. The questions would be about the city's motivation for hosting the Olympics, existing venues to host Olympic events, what venues would need to be built to host Olympic events, existing police, hotels, and transportation and if the city had enough of these to host an Olympics or would they need more police, hotels, and transportation. The answers to these questionnaires are reviewed by the IOC to determine whether the city has the resources, and can create the resources they don't have, to host the Olympics. The IOC will select five cities and these cities will be in contention to host the Games.
A NOC is a National Olympic Committee. Basically what they do is they represent a country, and it is up to them to decide which athletes participate in the Olympic games from the country. They also nominate their cities for candidates for future Olympic game venues.
Just about every city in the world that has held Olympic Games in the past also has an Olympic Museum. There is one in Lausanne, Switzerland, Lake Placid, New York, and Olympic Valley, California. There are several more cities that have Olympic museums.
