Former prisons in Helsinki and Boston that now welcome hotel guests

Several old jails have been reborn as hotels. Helsinki's Hotel Katajanokka occupies a building that served as a prison from 1837 until 2002 and opened to guests in 2007. Boston's Liberty Hotel in Beacon Hill was once the Charles Street Jail, built in 1851 and shut in 1990. In the Netherlands, Het Arresthuis in Roermond offers a similar stay.
