Description: As a completely nonsmoking hotel that reclaimed the long-closed Miller & Rhoads, a beloved Richmond department store, it carries the mantle of old Richmond into the new with an inviting lobby lounge, 250 well-appointed rooms with higher ceilings than typical hotels, and thoughtful tips of the hat to its predecessor with displays of memorabilia throughout the first floor. This hotel’s location couldn’t be better for theatergoing at Richmond CenterStage, concertgoing at the National, courthouse-going at the Federal Courthouse, or convention-going at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. The rooms feature either one king or two queen beds and are outfitted with coffeemakers, minifridges, microwaves, and high-end touches like Herman Miller desk chairs. Wireless is complimentary all over the hotel, as is transportation within 3 miles of the hotel. The lobby lounge is a comfortable place for grabbing a drink and a bite, serving a bar menu and full dinner menu from the afternoon until late at night. With its many cozy seating areas, it’s a great place for relaxing or watching a fire or TV if you don’t want to hide in your room. A 24-hour business center, evening room service, a fitness center, and an indoor pool add to the options. Breakfast at the lobby restaurant is an all-you-can-eat affair with eggs and omelets cooked to your liking.
