A historic hotel gives guests the chance to stay in a place that’s been officially recognised with a historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can be castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any building that’s been identified as being of special interest.

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. The term “historic hotel” is more common in the U.S., whereas “heritage hotel” is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to put more importance on the building and architecture itself. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value that the place has and how it shaped the community.

Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, while interiors have safety features and modern conveniences.
