What is a historic hotel like in Bournemouth?
A historic hotel gives guests an opportunity to stay in a place that’s been recognised with a national historic designation.

These types of hotels in Bournemouth often preserve original elements like traditional architecture and period features within the guestrooms or public spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. “Historic hotel” is a term often used in the US, while you’ll often hear “heritage hotel” in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to focus on the physical building and architecture. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value and how it inspired the surrounding community.
Do historic hotels in Bournemouth have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, while interiors have safety features and modern conveniences.

In Bournemouth, booking a historic hotel doesn’t mean you will stay in a place that’s rundown.
