Historic hotels give guests the chance to stay in a building that has been officially recognised with a national historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can be stately homes, palaces or even lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — any place of special interest. These types of hotels in Zhongshan often retain authentic characteristics such as period features or traditional architecture in their communal 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 building and architecture itself. A heritage hotel draws meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it shaped the community.

Yes, efforts are made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Tourists who book a stay should expect the popular amenities you’d get from a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, and free and fast Internet. Booking a historic hotel in Zhongshan doesn’t mean you will stay in a place that’s rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
