Historic Hotels of America

October 22, 2009

Two hundred and twenty historic hotels in the United States are part of the National Trust Historic Hotels of America. To qualify they have to be at least 50 years old and be eligible or listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Historic ambience and architecture need to be maintained. 3428900164 98415df3bb Historic Hotels of America Historic hotels can be found in 39 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Their size can vary from the 8 room American Hotel in Sag Harbor on Long Island to the 1639 room Palmer House Hotel in Chicago. Their style can see both ends of the spectrum from rustic to refined. They will be priced accordingly. La Salle Hotel in Bryan, Texas weighs in with a $69 per night rate while if you could afford a suite at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco you will be $12,500 poorer. We recently stayed at Hotel la Rose in Santa Rosa located on the Railroad Square. Not only did it have incredibly friendly staff, but it’s location was superb and the price was right at $139 for weekdays and $159 for weekends including breakfast. 3462321332 3fbca25879 Historic Hotels of America If you dislike staying in a typical chain hotel then this is one place to start looking for something a little out of the ordinary. Also consider Historic Hotels of Europe and Historic Hotels of Mexico if you are planning trips to either of those areas. They are sure to add a richness to your business or vacation experience.
