What is a historic hotel like in New Orleans?
A historic hotel gives guests a chance to stay in a place that’s been officially recognised with a national historic designation.

These types of hotels in New Orleans often retain original elements like traditional architecture and period features in guestrooms or communal spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
They 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 put more importance on the building and architecture itself. Heritage hotels draw their meaning mainly from the cultural value and how it shaped the community.

Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, while interiors have safety features and modern conveniences. Guests should expect the popular amenities from a contemporary hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In New Orleans, booking a historic hotel doesn’t mean you will stay in a place that’s rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
