3. Much More Than a Change of Scenery

Art buffs and creative types will appreciate the avant-garde visuals featured throughout the property. The floor-to-ceiling charcoal sculpture by local artist Marie Khouri in the hotel’s lobby will invite you to explore Richmond’s topography, while a vibrant multi-level mural hidden in the back stairwell offers a momentary respite from the task at hand.

In our guestrooms, decide on the décor that speaks to your personality, with five bold designs bound to get your creative juices flowing. Paying homage to each personality type is an ethereal wallcovering of koi fish, a symbol of strength and perseverance in Chinese culture to help conjure the motivation you need.
