This luxury all-suite hotel has been around since 1846 and the history is as interesting as the building itself. The original hotel, which served as a detox center for the bootlegging saloon downstairs burned to the ground. A new building was erected some 50 years later, and recent renovations have revitalized many of the historical elements of the original hotel. It resides downtown across from Capitol Square. Each elegant room is an 18th-century reproduction, complete with classic and antique decor and marble lined bathrooms that feature towel warmers. The rooms also offer many modern conveniences. The location is convenient to Capitol Square, the downtown financial district and Shockoe Slip.
