A historic hotel gives guests the opportunity to stay in a place officially recognised with a historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can take the form of castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any building that’s been identified as being of special interest. These types of hotels in Cambridge often preserve original characteristics such as period features or traditional architecture in their communal spaces or guestrooms.

These are quite similar. “Historic hotel” is a term often used in the US, while “heritage hotel” is often used in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to put more importance on the architecture and building. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value and how it influenced the community.

Yes, every effort is made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Visitors can expect the amenities you’d find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. When you book a historic hotel in Cambridge, it doesn’t mean you’re choosing a place that’s rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
