Cairns is notable for landmarks like Cairns Regional Gallery. Cultural venues include Australian Armour and Artillery Museum, Cairns Museum and Tanks Arts Centre. A couple of additional sights to add to your itinerary are Cairns Night Markets and Esplanade Lagoon.
What is a historic hotel like in Cairns?
Historic hotels give guests the chance to stay in a place that's been recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can be castles, palaces, grand homes or even old police stations, pubs, lodges or skyscrapers — any place of special interest. These types of hotels in Cairns often preserve authentic elements such as period features or traditional architecture in guestrooms or communal spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
They are quite similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., while you'll often hear "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to focus on the architecture and building. Heritage hotels draw their meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it influenced the community.
Do historic hotels in Cairns have modern facilities?
Yes, efforts are made to preserve historic facades and treasured traditions, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Tourists who book a stay can expect the usual amenities you'd get from a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, WiFi and more. Booking a historic hotel in Cairns doesn't mean you're picking a place that's rundown.
