A historic hotel gives guests an opportunity to stay in a place recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world come in all forms like stately homes, palaces or even lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any building that’s been identified as being of special interest. These types of hotels in Boston typically retain authentic characteristics such as period features or traditional architecture in their public spaces or guestrooms.

These are quite similar. The term “historic hotel” is more common in the U.S., while you'll often hear "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the building and architecture itself. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value that the place has and how it shaped the community.

Yes, efforts are made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Tourists who book a stay can expect the amenities you'd find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. Booking a historic hotel in Boston doesn't mean you're choosing a place that's rundown.
