3* Richmond Hotel
 

Description / Location

Open since 1941 and operated by the original owners’ family, this hotel features the streamlined aesthetic and geometric curves of a classic Art Deco building. Located at SoBe’s north end, it’s three blocks from Lincoln Road, with a tiny circular driveway partially hidden by palm trees. History is apparent in the neon sign and original terrazzo floors. The rear lobby is nautical Deco in style, with porthole windows, horizontally striped walls, and softly rounded corners. Guests are a mix of singles, couples, and small groups. The Richmond Hotel features an outdoor pool surrounded by a patio with lounge chairs, tables, and a spa tub in the shape of a half-moon. A winding cement path leads past a fountain to a key-coded gate, a small wooden boardwalk, and the beach. The hotel’s café offers breakfast from morning until mid-afternoon, and in the evenings, guests can sit on the front porch—shaded by tall palm trees wrapped in tiny white lights—to enjoy a drink.

Accommodations
 
The seven-story hotel has 92 guestrooms. Rooms are decorated in a low-key Deco style. Beds haveblond oak headboards and all-white bedding, with built-in shelves and silver bedside lamps. Rooms include armchairs, large circular mirrors, faux-1930s clock radios, and Deco-inspired floor lamps. Closets include red umbrellas, safes, and bathrobes. On the walls are framed, enlarged prints of Miami Beach postcards, circa 1940. Small bathrooms have original tiling. Silver rolling trays hold beach towels and hair dryers. Climate control is rather quaint, with old-fashioned dials that open air vents to central air-conditioning (the hotel was one of the first to install air conditioning after WWII). Views are of Collins Avenue, surrounding hotels, the hotel courtyard and pool, or the beach and ocean. 

Restaurants & Bars

Verandah Café - Located in the hotel’s back lobby, this small café has an open window and adjacent door through which a server passes, serving espresso and breakfast dishes from morning to mid-afternoon. Á la carte breakfast dishes such as omelets and pancakes are offered daily; some mornings, a buffet breakfast is spread along the far wall. Guests can sit at tables inside, or outside at four patio tables.
The hotel’s restaurant is open for breakfast and lunch. Many additional dining options are available in the surrounding area. Nearby restaurants: Blue Door, Grillfish, Spris, Emeril’s Miami Beach, Jerry’s Famous Deli, Van Dyke Café.

Activities

A small fitness center in the hotel has free weights, a treadmill, and a stair-stepper. The hotel’s unheated outdoor pool is surrounded by a patio with umbrella-shaded tables, chairs, and loungers with red cushions. The beach is past the pool and the spa tub through the yard, and over a white-wooden bridge. The beach is long and wide, with a hard-packed area that’s great for running. A lifeguard post is fairly close to the hotel. Chairs and cabanas are available for rent, and vendors in vans sell food and drinks. Water-sports equipment is available in the area, as are bicycles and mopeds. Golfing and fishing are also available in Miami Beach.
