Quirk Hotel, A Destination Hotel

According to recent guests and locals, one of the best things about the boutique Quirk Hotel in Richmond, Virginia, is the large selection of locally made wine and craft beers, plus handcrafted cocktails at the hotel bar. If you're not a drinker, the on-site coffee bar, which brews beans from a local roasting company, is equally as popular. Located among the downtown arts and design district along Broad Street, the hotel is described by recent visitors as eccentric – in a good way – with a chic design and well-thought-out details. Guest rooms are filled with natural light, local artwork, hardwood floors and custom furnishings, along with amenities like flat-screen HDTVs, minibars, coffee makers and complimentary Wi-Fi access. Travelers can pursue their interests, whether that's exercising at the on-site fitness center or perusing the revolving exhibits at the Quirk Art Gallery. After working up an appetite, you can sit down for a meal of seasonal, locally grown grub at the Maple & Pine restaurant, which recent guests said was top quality, although a little expensive. However, recent visitors agreed the service they received was always quick and personable.
