Guests who choose historic hotels have a chance to stay in a building that has been officially recognised with a national 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 building that’s been identified as being of special interest. These types of hotels in Moinhos de Vento typically preserve original elements such as period features or traditional architecture in their public spaces or guestrooms.

The two are 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 focus on the architecture and actual building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired 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 private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, WiFi and more. Booking a historic hotel in Moinhos de Vento doesn’t mean you’re choosing a place that’s uncomfortable for guests or simply rundown.
