What is a historic hotel like in Kolkata?
A historic hotel gives guests a chance to stay in a place that's 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 Kolkata often preserve original elements such as period features or traditional architecture in guestrooms or communal spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. "Historic hotel" is more commonly used in the U.S., while "heritage hotel" is often used in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to place more significance on the architecture and building. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the place's cultural value and how it influenced the community.
Do historic hotels in Kolkata have modern facilities?
Yes, every effort is made to preserve the historic aspects and traditions, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Visitors can expect the amenities you'd get from a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, and free and fast Internet. When you book a historic hotel in Kolkata, it doesn't mean you're choosing a place that's rundown.
