"Prisons, plantations and more: 10 Hotels with storied pasts", from USA Today and Oyster






Great article on unique conversions around the world, from USA Today and Oyster. (Too bad our local BrewHouse Suites Hotel in the former Pabst brewery and bottling factory building or our local Iron Horse Hotel in the old Coakley shipping warehouse weren't considered…maybe one of them was number 11?)

From prisons to plantations, the 10 hotels on this list were once the sites of quite different operations, and all have storied – whether eerie or interesting or just downright weird – pasts.
