**Russians choose history: the survey revealed the main trends in the choice of hotels**

More than 1,600 residents of different regions of Russia participated in the study conducted by DOM Bank.The Russian Federation jointly with the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. Analysts have found out what factors influence the decision of tourists to stay in hotels located in historical mansions and ancient buildings.

According to the survey results, 63% of respondents are ready to book a hotel in a historic building during their travels. The key advantages for them were the location in the city center, the opportunity to touch the place where famous personalities lived, and the unique atmosphere of antiquity. However, almost half of the participants (47%) stressed that they would agree to such a format only if the room was equipped with modern facilities.

Interestingly, the perception of space has been divided by gender. Men primarily value the preservation of authentic historical surroundings, whereas comfort and convenience of location are more important for women.

Age preferences also vary:
* **The older generation (65+):** inspired by the opportunity to live where great people have been.
* **Youth (18-25 years old):** prioritize convenient transport accessibility and location.
* **Tourists (51-65 years old):** they value authenticity and the "spirit of the place" the most.

At the same time, the study highlights: Regardless of age, a high level of comfort and compliance with modern standards of accommodation remain an absolute priority for all travelers.

Experts note the growing interest of Russians in cultural heritage. Almost 40% of the respondents are ready to consider staying in buildings that were not originally intended for living if comfortable conditions are created there. As noted in the DOM Bank.In the Russian Federation, these data confirm the relevance of the state program for the restoration of cultural heritage sites. Starting in February of this year, investors can receive preferential loans for the restoration of such facilities for the opening of hotels at a rate of only 6% per annum.

Approximately 10-15% of Russians, according to the survey, are looking for more than just a vacation when traveling, but an opportunity to experience the "spirit of the times," which makes the location in historical neighborhoods critically important to them.
