Auberge Du Vieux-Port- Montreal, QC
Auberge Du Vieux-Port in Montreal is housed in two 19th Century warehouses along the river in Montreal. There apparently are very quaint rooms at the hotel, with original stone walls, but we did not get one. Although we did had a lovely view of the river, our room itself was underwhelming, and left us questioning our hotel decision, despite the cozy common areas and attached bar.

Kimpton Schofield- Cleveland, OH
Kimpton Schofield really isn't a historic hotel. It wasn't a hotel at all until pretty recently, which the interior of the building makes patently obvious. It is however an interesting example of the restoration of a historic façade.
