The deluxe suite was much nicer and newer than I expected. A full size kitchen, living room and half bath downstairs. Huge bedroom and bathroom and private patio area upstairs, I was very impressed. Walking distance to many areas in the historic district. Would definitely recommend staying at the Richemont.
