What is a historic hotel like in Kendal?

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 "heritage hotel" is often used in Asia and Europe.

Yes. Every effort is made to preserve historic facades and treasured traditions, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features.

In Kendal, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you're picking a place that's rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
