Stepping into some hotels, old houses or historic buildings converted into a place to stay can feel like stepping back in time. Perhaps it was a Tudor manor house, a grand chateau or a 1970s-themed B&B with authentic decor and ambience. We’d love to hear about accommodation in Europe, including the UK, that really brought history alive and made your stay particularly special.

The best tip of the week, chosen by Tom Hall of Lonely Planet wins a £200 voucher to stay at a Coolstays property – the company has more than 3,000 worldwide. The best tips will appear in the Guardian Travel section and website.
