Gotta Check it Out
I live the Richardson. The architecture is amazing and so is the history. They have a museum with a video that tells about how it became a hotel. Highly recommend.

Hotel is absolutely beautiful and I love the history of it. We booked a queen room and I felt it was a bit overpriced for how small it was. Staff were wonderful however

Amazing adaptive reuse
Very interesting adaptive reuse of historic site. Excellent as a hotel. Hope service level can keep up, specifically restaurant bar hours. House-keeping is excellent, included breakfast is excellent. Only evening restaurant hours are a little uncertain.

Renee, 2-night trip

Fabulous
Absolutely amazing hotel - a completely renovated architectural gem by H.H. Richardson set among 40 acres of an Olmsted-designed park. Outstanding reuse of a fabulous building and gorgeous hotel with excellent service. Loved, loved, loved.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The buildings themselves are absolutely stunning and what they have done with them is amazing. We had wanted to stay there for a long time and took the opportunity to stay in Buffalo prior to a Buffalo Bills game. The Christmas market was icing on the cake.
Catherine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Exceptional stay in a gorgeous hotel!
An amazing accommodation! This hotel is one of a kind, with a very interesting history. The rooms are spacious and beautiful. I love the little reading nooks, and the common areas on each floor. I would be delighted to return, and can't recommend highly enough! The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us... five stars!!

The Richardson in Buffalo
Very nice building with a good breakfast. Rooms very comfortable for sleeping- quiet, climate controlled and double curtains
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved staying in this historic building. It has been beautifully updated but you still get the feel of the past. As far as eco friendliness - it would be better to provide paper rather than plastic water cups and in the room to reduce plastic waste. Also biodegradable / compostable cutlery at breakfast. Thank you for the paper coffee cups.
