Historic Hotels in California
If you’re looking for your California getaway to go down in history as the best vacay ever, you’ve got some noteworthy options to consider when it comes to where to stay. You could book a legendary or even luxury historic hotel for your trip with opulent extras. You’re probably thinking you’ll have to spend monumental money for a stately historical spot, but you may want to keep a fainting couch nearby—you’ll be shocked by what you can get for less gold bullion than you expected. Or modern cash. Whatever’s on hand.
Historically Great Spots
If you’re looking to do some R & R at one of the top historic hotels in America and don’t want to blow a stack of Benjamins while you’re at it, you’re in luck—you can stay at some of the best historic hotels in California by booking a Hotwire Hot Rate hotel deal, even if you’re historically short on time. In fact, you could save up to 60% versus booking a listed rate two weeks earlier, so locking down that 4-star place at a 2-star price is no historic feat.
A Little Mystery in Your History
You can get way more than you bargained for when you book a Hotwire Hot Rate historic hotel deal in California instead of just booking any old hotel for your trip. Not only can you get a deal for the history books when you reserve a Hot Rate, you can filter hotels by what matters most to you for your last-minute California getaway, including price, amenities, and reviews.
