The Richmond Hotel is a superior, first class facility located on the Atlantic Ocean and 9 miles from Miami International Airport. The hotel is in the heart of the historic Art Deco district. Perfectly situated for peace and relaxation, the Richmond is close enough for every convenience. The hotel, built in 1941, offers the most up to date amenities and services to its guests. This Art Deco style hotel was designed by famous Miami Beach architect L. Murray Dixon to be reminiscent of a great ocean liner. The ocean front location is ideal for all types of ocean/water sport activities, which are located directly behind the hotel on the 400 foot beach. The location is excellent, only three blocks from the Lincoln Road Mall, with its bistros and shops and, of course, close to the glitz and glamour of South Beach's clubs, boutiques and cafes. Guests can work out in the hotel's fitness center, swim in the outdoor pool or half moon spa pool, and then loll around on umbrella shaded chairs and loungers. Just past this area, guests will discover a private walkway leading to the beach. The hotel's rooftop also features a terrace and a solarium. The Richmond's Verandah Cafe overlooks the pool area and serves coffee, espresso, and Continental or Full American breakfasts. Although the hotel restaurant is not open for lunch and dinner, guests can find plenty of other dining options within walking distance. Guestrooms feature all white bedding, down comforters and blond oak furniture, along with touches such as red umbrellas, original bathroom tiles, 1940s reproduction clock radios, and Deco inspired floor lamps. Framed, enlarged prints of Miami Beach postcards, circa 1940, decorate the walls. Guests at the Richmond Hotel are a mix of singles, couples and small groups. Children and teens enjoy the swimming pool, sprawling lawn, and white sandy beach and Beachwalk, which stretches to the very end of Miami Beach. Valet Parking is available at a charge of 35 plus tax per night.
