What is a historic hotel like in Rathnew?
Guests who choose historic hotels have the opportunity to stay in a building recognised with an official historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can take the form of castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — as long as it's of special interest. These types of hotels in Rathnew often retain original characteristics 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. 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 place more significance 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.
Do historic hotels in Rathnew have modern facilities?
Hotels include modern conveniences and safety features you might expect, but every effort is made to preserve historic facades and treasured traditions. Private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, free WiFi and the usual amenities found in most hotels should be available at a historic hotel.
