Hotels near Pierce＇s Park, Baltimore

We stayed at the Courtyard for three nights over July 4 weekend and were very pleased with our experience. The hotel is well located for downtown Baltimore, very close to Pier 6 Pavilion if going to a concert there and not far from other sites as well (Reggie Lewis Museum, Maryland Jewish Museum). The room and facility was very very clean and the staff was pleasant and VERY helpful throughout, appreciative that we were staying there. We had a few needs for housekeeping help - a corkscrew and sheets and towels for the couch plus figuring out temperature control on the mini fridge - and in all three cases, staff was at the room in very short order. This is not a super fancy hotel - it's not claiming to be - but it is well priced and comfortable. If not interested in paying for hotel parking, the Little Italy parking garge is about 3-4 blocks away & there is free parking near there as well (be careful of signage though). Overall, a very very positive experience for sure. Exceeded expectations.

Overall experience was below par. From carpets that were in dire need of cleaning with obvious neglect, to the fact that ice machines on multiple floors were inoperable and even though I reported the 9th floor ice machine every day for our entire stay, it never functioned. With conference attendance in the 250-450 range daily it seriously impeded our ability to make meeting changes as there was not a single day where all 4 elevators functioned at the same time. On one morning session, I had to wait for 25 minutes to get an elevator to the top floor meeting space. I finally found a back way through the service elevator to get there. Totally unacceptable. I do expect this level of neglect in a flagship property. It was obvious that staff shortage was an issue as well. Finally the pricing in the hotel restaurant was totally out of line with outside establishments. Charging $12 for a bowl of oatmeal or $21 for a pancake breakfast is obscene. Totally underwhelmed by the experience.

The building itself on the interior is modern and relatively clean but that is the only positive. The area directly around this hotel is horrible as stated by other reviewers and is exactly if not worse as described. There is lots of trash and paraphernalia covering the sidewalks as well as people high as a kite wandering around aimlessly. As close as this location seems to the safer areas (Camden Yards/Inner Harbor), it is about 1 block further then you would hope. For people familiar with Massachusetts, Methadone Mile would be a similar comparison to this area. After parking down the street at a parking garage ( Arrow Parking, I do recommend if you unfortunately stay at this hotel) and making the 1 minute walk to the hotel, we walked past several homeless appearing people sitting up against the hotel and entered the hotel. The room smelt really weird but seemed clean enough. At around 4am, I was awoken by the sound of my room’s front door slamming against the deadbolt repeatedly by people attempting to get in the room. The people appeared intoxicated and agitated trying to force themselves in the room saying it was their room and to get out, yelling, and attempting to reach through the open space left by the dead bolt. After pushing the door shut and securing the door with the second lock, the people yelled for a few more moments then left. This is absolutely unacceptable as the staff at the desk would have had to issue them this room key to be able to unlock my door. It is absolutely ridiculous that this was allowed to happen and that there is no fail safes in place by upper management and corporate so that room cards are not issued to the same room to different people. This incident could have led to the theft of my belongings in the room when I was not there, or worse, the injuries or deaths of the parties involved due to an altercation. When I checked out in the morning, I notified the staff of the incident to which she apologized but seemed generally unfazed that this happened. I hope that no other poor tourist gets sucked into this place by the cheap prices.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 5 night stay at Hotel Indigo. The reception staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was well appointed with nice furnishings and was clean. The bed was comfortable. The room had 2 large windows with a city view. Housekeeping came daily and provided excellent service. The public areas/lobby were nice and clean too. The lobby has a large area with abundant seating, a large fireplace and tv. My only suggestion would be to update the tv to a smart tv for access to Netflix and other apps.

Ah, Baltimore, a city of rich history and eclectic charm. My wife and I recently had the pleasure of a stay at the Hotel Ulysses, a luxurious retreat nestled in the heart of this vibrant city. True to the reputation of the New York-based design firm, Ash, the Ulysses is nothing short of an architectural marvel. The first thing that catches your eye? The hotel's impeccable aesthetic. It's a masterful blend of old-world charm and modern design, encapsulating the very essence of Baltimore's diverse character. While the rooms might have been a tad on the cozier side, they more than made up for it with their plush comfort and attention to detail. The Ulysses truly exemplifies the notion that beauty lies in the details, and the meticulousness with which they've curated every aspect of the guest experience speaks volumes. The 19th-century charm of the Mount Vernon neighborhood is beautifully echoed within the Ulysses. The delicate stained-glass skylight, the ornate crown molding, and the preserved brass postal box serve as a testament to the building's rich history. But it's not all vintage here. The interiors seamlessly transition from the ornate influences of the Art Nouveau era to a more streamlined approach, evident in the hickory wood furniture adorned with Ash’s custom textiles. And oh, those hand-beaded lampshades and embroidered quilts! They added the perfect splash of color and quirk. A special shout-out to the carved flamingos that support the bedside tables, a delightful nod to Baltimore's own John Waters and his ”Pink Flamingos.” It's this mix of opulence and eccentricity that makes the Ulysses stand out. Booking through Trip.com was a new experience for us. A bit unconventional, sure, but it came through in the clutch. The $35 ”destination fee” threw us for a loop initially, but the $20 credit we received towards our bill at the hotel restaurant (Ash Bar) or the bar (Blooms) made it all worth it. Speaking of Blooms, what an experience! The mirrored ceiling, the crimson banquettes, and the purple stools set the stage for a night to remember. In a nutshell? The Hotel Ulysses is a triumph, an ode to Baltimore's multifaceted spirit. Whether you're here for the history, the design, or the sheer experience, the Ulysses promises and delivers. Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The building of this hotel has a history of 120 years. The location is on the edge of the inner harbor. The pier is just outside the window. The surrounding area is safe. You can walk around the window and watch the sunrise. The breakfast is great! Welcome to Kunshi, courteous and attentive, it is a very rare experience!

This is the worst Hotel I have ever stayed in, period. The whole hotel smelled of skunk and marihuana. The Ice machine room smelled of urine as if it was used very often. The front desk attendants were watching television in the breakfast area instead of monitoring who was coming into the hotel. There was a man who appeared to be homeless walking through the hotel lobby, then up the elevators and back down to the lobby. He wore the same clothes on Friday night and Saturday morning. The morning attendant on 2/19 was sleeping in the office. I had to bang on the office door several times to wake him up. When I asked for more towels I was given pool towels which were small and worn out. When I asked for more pillows I was told they only had one left but the hotel wasn't sold out. There was mold on the ceiling in hallway, our room, the bathroom. The toilet kept getting stuffed up, we were afraid it would over flow every time. When I mentioned it to the front desk clerk he said OK, didn't even fain an interest in fixing the problem. I want my money refunded immediately. We felt unsafe, we were in deplorable conditions that smelled horrible. The entire hotel, I mean entire hotel needs a tear down and rebuild it is that bad. The beds were like twin beds not fit for two adults to sleep in.

I just want to say this was our first time coming to the Sonesta. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A special thanks to Michele who was a by far the most professional and friendly person. She was attentive to our needs and made the stay worth every penny. I would encourage anyone that is in the area to stay here. We will definitely be going back and staying. Loved the suite and the view! Once again we can’t thank Michele enough.
