What is a historic hotel like in Ottawa?
Historic hotels give guests the opportunity to stay in a place that's been officially recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can take the form of 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 Ottawa often preserve original elements like traditional architecture and period features in their communal spaces or guestrooms.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
The two are similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., while "heritage hotel" is often used in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the physical building and architecture. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it inspired the surrounding community.
Do historic hotels in Ottawa have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd get from a hotel such as Smart TVs, WiFi and updated bathroom facilities. In Ottawa, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
