Seven 1800s row houses created one antique-filled hotel with restful, charming rooms in downtown Richmond – five blocks from the sprawl of Virginia Commonwealth University. Cocooned in American history, sip coffee and nibble your morning croissants in the quaint walled courtyard garden where poet Edgar Allan Poe spent his childhood years playing. And if that’s not impressive enough, one of the houses also schooled Lady Astor.

Sip your sundowner with a rooftop view at the open-air bar and sample rustic American craft weekend brunches in the attractive, relaxed Lobby Bar.
