Beckett Suites is unlike any modern hotel. A true time machine back to the golden days of high society. A prestigious landmark showcasing the perfection of the Art Deco movement within the beautiful city of Beckettville.
A Historic Landmark
Beckett Suites has been a beacon in Beckettville since the early 1920s, surviving both World Wars and a number of demolition attempts by unsavory parties. These attempts on the hotel have only caused an increase in security measures to thwart any future threats to our great landmark.Prior to the Extinction Event
Harry Copeland was a highly accomplished architect in the early 1920's when he was approached by the Beckett Family. He was in the process of working on a transfer of a large hotel in New York at the time he was commissioned. Beckett Suites would need to be habitable for an international festival happening in a few months and there wouldn't be time to complete the full process of building from scratch. By the good graces of Dolōrem, Beckettville was in luck! The Becketts struck a deal with the hotel being transferred and, with generous contributions from citizens like you, were able to purchase the already built establishment, moving the entire building to Beckettville instead. The original city was none the wiser and their false hotel continued to stand until the extinction event.Renovations
Beckett Suites closed its doors for the first time in the 1980's to undergo renovations so graciously funded by the Copeland Family. The hotel saw restorations to the marble and hardwood, as well as upgrades to the electrical elements in the suites. With new communication devices, televisions, and computers installed in each room, you'll never be bored while at Beckett Suites! In addition, a high-tech ventilation system was installed to help quell those moderate temperatures of the summertime.Post Extinction Event
A Place of Refuge
After The Extinction Event, the doors of the hotel were opened for refugees allowed into Beckettville. Full catering and clean housing was provided by The Hiram Beckett Company at no monetary cost to the refugees for a period of six months while they were trained for new positions and found apartments in Beckettville. The refugees soon became beloved citizens of our great city for aiding research efforts in nutrition, deprivation, healthcare, and the importance of proper sleep during their time at Beckett Suites.An Unforgettable Building
Beckett Suites is a defining highlight of the Beckettville skyline and was designated a national landmark during the Momentous Becketts venture. The hotel is open for visitation 9am-2pm. Outside of visitation hours only guests with reservations will be allowed on the premises. Amenities are available for guests only, with exceptions during special events.Exterior
Currently the tallest tower in Beckettville, Beckett Suites stands at 47 stories with 43 operating and available for public use. Originally crafted primarily from limestone and steel, the facade has been fitted with marble adornments along the doors and windows. During the refurbishment, all handles, latches, and other small pieces of hardware were gilded and to date are maintained to preserve their shine. Many of the adornments were removed and recast to bring back their details, now with new additions (courtesy of the Copelands) of black marble and gold filament as highlights. Guests can access the Olympic-sized pool and day spas through Comfort Plaza at the eastern entrance.

Brandy Beckett was a rambunctious family heir most notable for her creation of Brandy's Bar within Beckett Suites. When she came into Presidency in the early 1970's she decided the hotel needed to liven up to the current times. Knocking out a wall into the ballroom and cutting the space in half, Brandy was able to build her own speakeasy-inspired bar.Proving to be a bit too successful, Brandy's Bar soon had to close their doors to all but hotel customers, creating quite the stir in the local whiskey and gin connoisseurs who had become prevalent at the establishment. Brandy was incredibly enthusiastic about her beverages, formulating her own highly potent whiskey and gin that proved particularly popular. Her enthusiasm led her down an experimental road with her drinks, creating brands that are just to die for! You can taste her final recipe, Maurice's Merlow, now at Brandy's Bar!
Taking the reigns from Brandy, her son Max gained ownership of the bar and started cleaning up the presentation and menu. He turned the establishment into a high-class enterprise with their own bottled versions of Brandy's whiskey and gin.
The Menu
The Grand Ballroom
Initially envisioned by Harry Copeland, the full Grand Ballroom would not be realized until twenty years after Beckett Suite's opening. Harry's daughter, Betty Copeland, helped sketch up plans for a hardwood and marble design to complement the main lobby of the hotel. A raised stage was built at the front of the ballroom large enough to host an orchestra, but was more often the home to large jazz and swing bands. At its conception, the Ballroom was large enough to hold a capacity of 1200 guests with a dance floor and buffet. When Brandy Beckett created her bar, the Grand Ballroom was cut to a capacity of 800 guests and turned into a more exclusive venue.
