No real difference, I think (although I am not familiar with the whole range of styles to choose from). The intent of all of these is the same:

The impressive town hall is built in classic Italian style, The palace is built in a Renaissance style.
The impressive town hall is built in a classic Italian style, The palace is built in Renaissance style.
