“In my opinion, The Richmond Arms Hotel occupies a prime spot in a historically rich locale, offering a balanced experience. I noted that guests particularly enjoy the quality of the food and the wine selection. While some rooms are modern and spacious, some past guests mention inconsistencies in cleanliness and noise insulation that travelers should consider.”
