This magnificent Richmond, Virginia bed and breakfast located in the Museum District and the Monument Avenue Historic District was built in 1916, five years before Monument Avenue was paved west of the Boulevard and thirteen years before the Maury Monument it overlooks was unveiled.
Lovingly preserved in its original state by previous owners, we are only the fourth family to enjoy this remarkable architectural monument, and we are delighted to share it with you as our guest. Renovations have now been completed for four gracious suites, each with its own private bath en suite. The baths feature many original fixtures, but also have updated 21st century features such as heated tile floors and new showers.
The Pathfinder Suite, Maury Place’s largest and most romantic suite, even has a multi-nozzle steam shower! Three suites have working gas fireplaces. All suites have flat-screen televisions and wireless Internet access.
The HVAC system, plumbing, and electrical wiring have now been updated throughout, and the backyard has been reconfigured to accommodate off-street parking for our guests. The décor is both sophisticated and refreshingly modern, while still taking cues from the dramatic neo-classical architecture.
Now in our 9th month, Maury Place is enjoying increasing business each month, with May our best month yet. Maury Place is proving to be a favorite of couples getting married -- we already have three weekends this fall with whole-house bookings by families in town for Richmond weddings.
If you have been following our blog you know that we improving the landscaping to the property next door to Maury Place by installing a pool. The duplex next door is historically tied to the Maury Place, and will share a common back yard with the bed and breakfast. The pool will be finished by June 30, and will be available to guests of Maury Place.
We are delighted that as of June 1 we have a perfect score on Trip Advisor, with 18 travelers scoring us 5 of 5. This has allowed us to be ranked #2 among Richmond VA B&B's!!
