Absolutely beautiful and unusual historical building that a portion of it was turned into a hotel and is located next to a college. Had very modern rooms with very tall ceilings and beautiful furnishings. Will definitely stay here again.

Great concept, but thus far poor execution. Front door area unwelcoming, doors difficult to use, no one around, garbage cans full, museum TV blaring too loud continuously. Breakfast was a joke. Hallways were nice. Room was adequate.

The Richardson is a unique hotel as it is one of HH Richardsons architectural masterpieces that was fortunately saved from the wrecking ball and is gradually being restored for various uses, the Hotel being the first of those. It is luxury priced but you are really paying to live in a piece of history. The breakfast is a simple continental, and the restaurant that used to be in the building is closed, but plenty of dining & shopping options are steps away in Elmwood. The decor with all of the historical photos plus the architectural museum on the lower level is excellent. A place you need to stay in at least once. We normally stay at my cousin’s but since we weren’t able to on this trip, we chose the Richardson.

I arrived to check in at the hotel and they overbooked and no longer had the suite we reserved through Expedia. It would have been nice to be notified in advance rather than being disappointed on the spot. Fortunately they had a Double Room but not ideal for a married couple celebrating a birthday.
