A couple of additional sights to add to your itinerary are Scarborough Beach State Park and Pine Point Beach. ### What is a historic hotel like in Scarborough? > A historic hotel gives guests a chance to stay in a building that has been officially recognised with a historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world have had many former lives and uses, such as palaces, castles, stately homes or even lodges, pubs or skyscrapers — any place of special interest. These types of hotels in Scarborough often preserve original 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? > The two are similar.
