What is a historic hotel like in Houston?
Guests who choose historic hotels have an opportunity to stay in a place that's been officially recognised with a historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world come in all forms like castles, palaces, grand homes or even old police stations, pubs, lodges or skyscrapers — any building that's been identified as being of special interest. These types of hotels in Houston typically retain authentic elements such as period features or traditional architecture in their communal spaces or guestrooms.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. "Historic hotel" is more commonly used in the U.S., whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the physical building and architecture. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the place's cultural value and how it inspired the surrounding community.
Do historic hotels in Houston have modern facilities?
Yes, every effort is made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Visitors can expect the amenities you'd get from a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. When you book a historic hotel in Houston, it doesn't mean you're choosing a place that's rundown.
