Gorgeous, high end hotel. Great amenities, easy walk to downtown and the beautiful town common. Richmond was a wonderful place to visit with our teen girls from the US. There was some noise audible in the room from doors closing in the hallway, and light came in under the door and from the window overnight. Bed was very comfortable though!

The lobby and dining area are very nice. However the rooms are tiny, so small there wasn't enough room for our luggage or to walk around the bed. The bathroom was also tiny with no counter space. Shower was too small for a normal sized person so I have no idea how a larger person would fit in the bathroom. I would not recommend this hotel.

Enjoyed the aesthetic of the main entrance of the hotel. Room was nicely decorated but wasn’t totally clean, noticeable chewing gum stuck to rug, dirty curtains etc Our room was near linen bins so we were woken at 5-5:30am one morning when bins were being moved, not an ideal start to the day. Other than this, the hotel was nice - if returning we would consider requesting a room on the first floor as an alternative for the noise.

An excellent place to stay in Richmond. I would have given it five stars, except for one small problem. You can take the elevator, but there are still four or five stairs to which you have to carry up your luggage. They have a very nice front patio where you can sit out and have a glass of wine, etc. we did not have the optional breakfast. Very close to other attractions in Richmond we stayed here because we wanted to go to Kew Gardens. Several public transportation options nearby

The hotel is beautiful and Richmond is a lovely area. The room was quiet and spacious, however there were two minor points, one if which was super minor. A good number of their rooms are on the lower ground floor. The second point, I was in room 102, which was a lower ground floor room and it was evident from the smell that the panelling by the door on right was likely covering a good amount of mould, or something else by the door had mould, there was a noticable smell. However the room was nice and clean, and even though it was a lower ground room we did have a window so it was nice and I bright. I would happily stay again.

It's a nice hotel, great location with a quality finish. However, it is very noisy both from road noise and other guests having loud conversations in the lobby and hallways. It is only the noise that lets it down, everything else is great.
