  • 4.4 Baltimore Kimpton Monaco

    Kimpton Hotel Monaco Inner Harbor, Baltimore

    New York Times

    “The Kimpton Hotel Monaco has a downtown location that’s close to the harbor, and rooms with the signature Kimpton touches, like yoga mats. The building still boasts the original marble, elevators and Tiffany stained glass of its original incarnation as the B&O Railroad headquarters.”

    Shortlisted in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Baltimore, Maryland.

  • 4.4 Admiral Fell Inn Baltimore

    Admiral Fell Inn, Baltimore

    Lonely Planet

    “This old Fell’s Point sailors’ hotel has been converted into a lovely inn with Federal-style furniture and four-poster beds. It’s got the best of both of Baltimore’s worlds, with historic and nautical details abounding on the one hand, and plenty of modern amenities on the other.”

  • 4.5 Sagamore Pendry Baltimore

    Sagamore Pendry, Baltimore

    Forbes

    “Opened in the spring of 2017, the brick building was stripped down and reimagined as a stylish 128-room pied-à-terre piled with local art, a buzzy steakhouse, a sparkling outdoor pool and some of the city’s best views of the Inner Harbor.”

  • 4.5 Ulysses Baltimore

    Ulysses Hotel, Baltimore

    Travel+Leisure

    “The hotel — starting with a name that references the ship that brought Bavarian immigrants to Baltimore at the turn of the century — is a creative ode to the city’s peculiarities. Its distinct design aesthetic, created entirely by Ash, is inspired by art deco palaces and the work of legendary movie director and Baltimore resident John Waters, among other things.”

  • 4.5 Hotel Revival Baltimore

    Hotel Revival, Baltimore

    Frommers

    “Hotel Revival continues to maintain the old-fashioned style that has made it a favorite since the 1930s. You can expect tufted upholstery and heavy draperies in warm colors and creamy tones with furniture that recalls the elegance of an old 1930s movie. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t update its offerings: pull-out sofas were added to king rooms in 2013.”

  • 4.3 The Inn at Henderson's Wharf

    The Inn at Henderson’s Wharf, Baltimore

    Lonely Planet

    “Fresh flowers in the room, exposed brick walls and elegant furnishings await guests at this marvelously situated Fells Point hotel, which began life as an 18th-century tobacco warehouse. Don’t miss the complimentary evening wine reception or late-night chocolate indulgence. Consistently rated one of the city’s best lodges.”

  • 4.6 Royal Sonestra Baltimore Hotel

    Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Hotel, Baltimore

    Fodors

    “The entrance to this prestigious hotel is set back from the street by a brick courtyard that provides an immediate sense of tranquillity. A grand spiral staircase dominates the lobby, which is decorated in English country opulence.”

    Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Baltimore.

  • 4.8 Inn at 2920 Baltimore

    Bed & Breakfast Inn at 2920, Baltimore

    Lonely Planet

    “Housed in a former bordello, this boutique B&B offers five individual rooms; high-thread-count sheets, sleek and avant-garde decor, and the nightlife-charged neighborhood of Canton right outside your door.”

  • 4.9 Ivy Hotel Baltimore

    The Ivy Hotel, Baltimore

    New York Times

    “For the money-is-no-object set, Baltimore’s hottest hotel is the Ivy, a Relais & Chateaux property that opened in 2015 in a stunning Gilded Age mansion. Everything from cocktails to wooden puzzles to local kombucha is provided.”

    Shortlisted in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Baltimore, Maryland.

  • 4.7 Four Seasons Baltimore

    Four Seasons Hotel, Baltimore

    Fodors

    “The 18-story glass tower of the Four Seasons rises above the Harbor, commanding some of the city’s best views. Each of the 256 rooms features a minimalist design with plush comforts such as down duvets and marble bathrooms with soaking tubs.”

    Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Baltimore.
