Lord Baltimore Hotel Review

Great rooms. Good bar. But roof top lounge closed for 4th of July?

Great location near the inner harbor, room was very clean and comfortable. Not the most updated hotel, but worth the price being so close to everything and still affordable. Close to the light rail. Should be comfortable with a city environment if you stay here.

I met some friends here for drinks. It was a very lovely hotel with a nice bar.

Mismanaged, understaffed, not prepared for events, valet Lost our car keys and expected us to wait 2 days for them to "turn up" this place is a joke

Great old hotel. Classic Art Deco beauty. Welcoming staff. Quiet with comfortable beds. Will stay here again.

The rooms were a mixture of modern and classic design. The bed was comfy and the turn down service superb! The staff was always friendly and welcoming.

Ah, this was ok. Pro - it was spotlessly clean. The place was scrubbed and I had no qualms about staying here or using the facilities, or eating at the bar. One of the cleanest hotels I ve been at in a long while. The food was mostly good; I was there for a conference and ate the conference food those days and one to-go out of the bar. The vegetarian mushroom options were really tasty. Yummy treats, too. I ordered the Mac and cheese from the bar, and it was good.

Con - some of the dudes working the front counter. When I checked in, I was not given any info about the hotel. I was told my room number, and that was it. I wasn t told where the food areas were. I know there was a bakery or restaurant, but I never went there. I saw the bakery, but I never figured out where the restaurant was. Except for ordering the to-go from the bar, I chose to walk to other restaurants. I never found the fitness room. No directions or maps, or even hotel info was available in the room. Would it have killed them to state a few sentences about where amenities were? That would have been helpful. The most info about the hotel was in the elevators, but that was all historical.

Generally, this was an ok experience, but I ll likely stay somewhere else if I ever return to Baltimore.

We were in Baltimore for a Convention. 5/29 thru 6-1 and stayed at the Lord Baltimore. The stay was fantastic! Mike was great. Service was exceptional. They took special care of the older guests that was there. The ambiance of the hotel made me feel like i was special! Thank you Lord Baltimore!

The concierge April was so helpful and accommodating! She took great care to remember us and our needs. She went above and beyond!

Worst hotel ever. Won t give me my 50$ incidental room fee back !? Horrible place. Took 1.5 hours to check in. They still have not given me my 50$ back. I keep calling and they have some excuse. The Arab at front desk got smart with my wife. Awful place. Crooks

My wife, baby and I tried to go to the sky bar at about 5pm. We asked about it at the ground floor, were directed to the slow elevators, and once upstairs were told at the bar that no one under 21 is allowed. Although it is the hotel bar's prerogative to reject a family with a baby, it would have been useful if that policy had been made clear before we made the trek to the top.

I wish they had been more clear about which room package came with breakfast, but otherwise I loved our stay and would come again.

The stay is wonderful, or bartender Joey was wonderful really made us feel welcomed

This was a nice hotel. I liked the antique fashion look. My room was clean and the staff were very helpful.

Historical hotel, great service. Close to aquarium and ballpark.

The best Hotel you ll stay in Baltimore, you ll have all you need in one place: location in heart of historical city centre, very modern renovated Rooms, very clean with big comfortable bed, historical city built in 1928, most famous US history maker stayed at this Hotel, very friendly staff , car parking available either valet parking or safe inside public parking just 3 minutes walk to hotel , in one word : Final Solution to all you need !

Nice hotel, but I don't care to go back to Baltimore.

I checked in late Sunday March 1st and checked out Tuesday morning as scheduled and reserved for those days. This morning Im wriiting because upon check it I gave the rep 2 cards a credit card for my incidentals and a debit card for my payment. Since leaving I have had to call back several times for billing issues and over charges. Today Front desk rep Tom was very rude. Please review your 630am call log. I would the Baltimore accounting dept to correct their issues and STOP CHARGING MY DEBIT CARD. I will complain to the BBB. Train the valet staff to stop fliting with guess and be sure wash cloths are available before reserving the room. Coaching the staff that customers arent MAD they're frustrated when veing over charge for almost $145 for a night not rendered.

.

Service was good the staff was nice. Building is historic but does a nice job blending the old with the new renovations. The rooms were a good size and the beds were comfortable. It has a bar, a restaraunt and a bakery (none of which we used). There is valet parking. Location is pretty good with about a 10 minute walk to national harbor although closer to some of the stadiums.

Great location. Friendly staff and the deco is exquisite

Would have liked a fresh, clean scent to sheets and towels (though they were clean); otherwise it was a great stay. The staff are friendly and attentive.

Had a conference there. Nice historic building, good facilities although conference rooms are spread over multiple floors. Food was good but not amazing.

Older building. Tastefully decorated. Linens are threadbare.

No ghosts. 5 stars for that alone, as I needed to sleep.

Rooms are older, but very clean and beautiful. The building is gorgeous! There's some city noise from the older windows at night. It's not too bad if you're on one of the upper floors. Great stay!

I usually have a beautiful experience when I frequent the Lord Baltimore hotel however the new front desk clerk has a very Piss poor attitude which would stop me from coming back to said hotel ever again

Drinks at the Skybar were OK, the view was the real highlight. Afterwards we ate at the French Kitchen. The food was enjoyable but the place was empty. Great decor though.

Great location. Near enough the National Aquarium and Camden Yards to be walkable. Pleasant staff, nice rooms.

Attended for a conference. Rooms were beautiful and the facilities were clean and in good shape. I would definitely return for future conferences

Very dark and gloomy place. Little natural sunlight as the windows are so small. However, some people are into that sort of thing. The room was dated but clean. Biggest complaint was the water temperature. It changed constantly, assumingly depending on other rooms' use. Thankfully I am not diabetic but someone with impaired sensation could really get scalded because one minute you have it set the way you want it, and the next someone flushes a toilet and it is burning hot. It may be an inconvenience for some, but it could be a safety concern for others.

Excellent food, beautiful room, great service and wonderful staff!

Awesome hotel. Awesome experience. Valet was friendly and helpful as well as the front desk staff. I would go again.

Our stay here was flawless. The staff was super attentive, the on location foods were amazing, and the beds were very comfortable. One of the best hotel stays we've experienced, hands down.

Beautiful old hotel. Staff was friendly, and the French restaurant and bakery are absolutely fantastic! Highly recommend!

It was a very nice looking hotel. Seems to have some history in the lobby but it is a good hotel and central to the area if you are visiting.

Having worked for Hilton for years, I know how things should be done in a respectful hotel... So, I will start with the pleasant; but few, positive things about this hotel. The lobby is beautiful, the price reasonable (though we were part of a group rate), and bartender very accommodating. Also, the valet service is reliable and very pleasant to work with, and pretty affordable considering surrounding parking options.

With that being said, I would like to flash a warning to out-of-towners (especially with small children) looking for a safe and quiet place to stay. My son, my fiance and I stayed here for two nights, either of which we got ANY sleep. It was a weekend, so a little noise was to be expected. A little noise is not what occurred. The first night there was a brawl in the hallway, which started at 2am. I called the desk to report it. They informed me security was on the way. The noise did not, however, stop. It got louder and louder and kept my 2 year old son up until 6am, then he awoke again at 7am. I was extremely frustrated but forgiving, as situations happen.

Night 2: I settled into bed around 10pm with my baby boy sleeping quietly and fell asleep myself around 11pm. 11:15 pm rolls around and i hear screaming and door slamming from the room across ours. Shortly after, I hear security knock on the door. This happens THREE TIMES by 12:30 am (security and all). I called the front desk and informed them I was calling the police if I was disturbed again. (Most hotel protocol is 3 strikes and security calls police). 12:45 am rolls around and our room phone rings. I attempt to answer to keep the very loud ringer from waking my son. I could not dial out so in my fit of rage I got dressed and headed for the lobby to ask who rang my room, thinking the neighbor was upset because she saw me complain to the security guard about her noise. The lady at the desk informed me it was her who called. At 12:45am!!!! After I informed her I had a baby sleeping and this was the second sleepless night. Hotel etiquette is no calls after 9pm ESPECIALLY from staff. She said she just wanted to be sure I wasn't getting the police involved. How professional of her. Finally, around 1:15 the noise stopped for good. Maybe they finally took me seriously.

If you are visiting Baltimore for a party filled night, by all means, this is your place. However, if you have a family and want some rest for an early morning and long day with a tired child.... DO NOT STAY HERE! This is coming from someone who worked for Hilton and Marriott for years. This hotel does not follow security or etiquette guidelines. Our ending bill for two nights was $350 for room and parking only and it felt like a $35 red roof in drug-dealers paradise.

The hotel was beautiful and historic, within walking distance of plenty of Baltimore's gems like Poe's grave (which we visited on his birthday) and the inner harbor. Everyone was very friendly and the room was pretty basic but very comfortable for 2 adults. I think the smallest bed size was a queen. The hotel has a parking garage where it's 15 bucks every time you want to take your car out and that was kind of weird but still possibly cheaper than trying to park anywhere else downtown. It wasn't too bad thanks to walking and uber. Stayed there 3 nights, would stay there again.

Location is good and convenient, the service is also nice. They charge 50 for early check in which is not reasonable. The wall between the room is totally useless, you can hear people shouting talking and watching TV all the time. Try to avoid if you want to live in a quiet place.

Love the Sky Bar on the roof! Bartender Dylan is always super friendly and makes a great drink!

As always, a beautiful hotel and great food and services. Abraham the manager is the BEST

Stayed at tis hotel for a company meeting. The hotel was not too bad, just a few problems.
1. If you are here for a meeting the business center is, well do not expect anything. The computers do not work, you cannot print anything and when you try to get your email, well that's a joke.
2. Placed wake up call for two days in a row with the front desk. Did not get wake up calls.
3. Maids kept coming into the room early in the morning, even when I had the DO NOT ENTER sign on the door, almost got caught naked.
4. Service in the Tavern was really bad. Our group went down the street to an Irish pub and got the kind of service this hotel should be offering.
5. The breakfast at this hotel is real bad, the service was poor and the staff I met seemed not to give a dam about the guests, it was too much trouble for them even to refill my coffee.
6. I gave this place one star and the only reason I did that was because the service and personality of the people in the coffee shop. They were great.

I have stayed ay this place many times in the last four years, but am recommending to our company that they should find a decent hotel/conference center to hold the next venue at. The hotel used to have some great employees, but for some reason they are all gone.
A quick word to the General Manager. Keep the good people you have, because you are just cutting your own throat and helping to ruin a great hotel...

Ended up running into a magician in the lobby and it was awesome!

We stayed two nights at the Lord Baltimore. It was a great location, we enjoyed the live piano bar in the evenings, and the bakery had great coffee, and breakfast and lunch options for us to pack for the day. The valet team were helpful - we forgot something in our car and had a mixup finding it, but they were super helpful (and funny!) as we sorted it out. We also forgot a small item in the room after we checked out, and a member of their security team, Josh, went the extra mile to get it back to us. Highly recommend! The people on staff make this place worth it!

A Wow experience!! My friend and I walked in to the Lord Balitmore Hotel after several hours of searching for a hotel to spend the night near the Inner Habour. Our first encounter with Front Desk was Brittany, Genard and the Manger Abraham and later on the bartender Sam and the Lady Bartender, they all went above and beyond. Our room was clean, updated and the beds are comfortable! Needless to say, we enjoyed our one night at the Lord Balitmore Hotel and will definitely stay again and highly recommend Lord Balitmore Hotel.

Wonderful hotel with great amenities, i'm sure. My room was small, but it was perfect for what i needed.

This historic hotel is a great place to stay or have lunch and meetings!

They also strive to host conferences and yearly business events if you are looking for a local option different from the flagged hotel chain experience!

Beautifully decorated, historic charm, safe neighborhood (mostly). 3 restaurants, but no room service. Helpful, knowledgeable staff who seem to love their work. First time here, but it won't be my last.

Hotel was nice & quiet, but the lady at the front desk name Nicole had a very nasty attitude. She got to smart and was very rude and she kept cutting me off everytime I was talking. Overall the hotel was nice.

Great location rooms are clean and nice . Architecture is very pretty nice atmosphere at hotel lobby bar typical bar food ,friendly staff. nice to have a coffee shop right down stairs and if you're lucky you might see a ghost or just take the ghost tour.

Excellent rehabilitated historic hotel in the downtown. Rooms are modern and the bar is great. The French cafe could use some attention to its menu, but otherwise, a great place.

Great location but dated hotel in need of an upgrade.

I visited the Sky Bar, which was really nice. It was a relaxing environment with some great views of the city. I enjoyed some drinks with friends and was surprised by the generous pours!

I attended my sister in law wedding there. The location is awesome, the ballroom where the ceremony was held was very pretty, the decorator sure did do a great job. The cocktail hour was on the second floor with a view of the lobby, which made it more a public show than a private event. The ballroom to host the reception was on the third floor. This one was very pretty and luxurious. I sure will recommend this hotel for your big day.
Be careful of parking; limited parking availability forcing you for ballet parking.

I was very disappointed with this hotel. I had a one night stay and it was one night too many. Upon entering, it had this Great Gasby feel to it which I liked . When I went into the room that's when I went to a nightmare on elm street. The bathroom looked like it was from the Bates Motel. The grout in the shower was black. The bathroom sink was stopped up and there was no hot water from the bathroom sink only from the tub which was a few feet away.

Attended a charity event there and was blown away by how nice the interior was. The architecture of the ceilings, railings and rooms was beautiful and historic. The employees were very helpful and friendly. Valet was easy and reasonably priced. $13 with a discount from the event

I attended a work sponsored happy hour at the LB Sky Bar. The view was fantastic. It was pleasantly crowded and comfortable.

Nice staff. Hotel is historic. But has seen its prime and a bit aged. Offers good deals for meeting planners.

Very poor customer service like really poor the valet is the only thing positive with the customer service skills

We dropped someone off at the hotel. It seemed fine but the valets backed up everything.

It provided a beautiful room with wonderful ambience. We'd come back without a doubt.

Decent hotel, very comfy beds. There is valet parking available unless you decide to park it yourself not far away. Front desk was very polite and helped us with every need and questions we had.

The worst hotel ever. There is no parking, and the nearest parking cost is too high. The hotel is old, and the attention from personnel is bad. Never recommended.

What a great getaway for my husband and I! Beautiful rooms, reasonable prices. The staff service was exceptional without being unapproachable. Our server for dinner, Robin, was so very helpful and extremely sincere in her attentiveness. We even noticed that other "regulars" knew her by name and she remembered their's as well!
Great experience. Between the rooms and wonderful staff, we will definitely be staying at the Lord Baltimore again.

Although this historic hotel seems a little bland on the outside it is absolutely stunning on the inside! And.... creepy! It is a known hot spot for paranormal activity and had been featured in documentaries.

This was an awesome place to stay. Close enough to walk to the Inner Harbor.

Excellent service, very clean, elegant, delicious food, hot and strong coffee, free wifi, close to all the attractions, spacious meeting rooms. Highly recommend for your business meetings.

One of my favorites. They have 2 great bars. One is a speakeasy. Their restaurant is The French Kitchen and not only is the food absolutely delicious, it's reasonably priced as well. The rooms are lush but modern. And the hotel is in the heart of downtown Baltimore making it a very walkable choice.

Very nice decro and the staff is pleasant. Experience was ruined when my room did not have hot water

Very friendly staff and well appointed lobby. Easy access from the freeway as well.

Great place to stay. Visit the bar on the top floor! Very friendly staff willing to work with you on issues.

This hotel was nice, affordable, and in a great location. The staff were very friendly. I would stay here again.

Beautiful old hotel with lots of charm. Room was adequate size and staff were excellent.

Was relaitvely nice. No complaints but also not spectacular. The collages in the hallway are a bit strange. Sadly no clearly affiliated parking.

Attended ghost investigation event, staff and rooms were awesome

Great place to stay for Johns Hopkins guests. Quiet room, nice historic atmosphere, valet and self parking available.

The hotel is very nice and clean but I'm a little upset because I have got charged twice for my room. Once by the third party booking agency that I use and then got charged way more than what I got paid for the room once I got to the. They were supposed to be putting a $50 hold on my card and charge me full price for my room

We come to Baltimore 3 times a year and stay at the Lord Baltimore every time. It is a beautifully refurbished historic hotel that is comfortable and elegant with the friendliest staff I have encountered. It is walking distance to down town, the wharf, museums, and Edgar Allan Poe's grave site. They offer a wide selection of delicious fresh foods from 3 separate dining areas/coffee shop/ bars. We really enjoy staying here.

The entire hotel has historical touches throughout. The rooms are well appointed. The bed is large and comfortable. The staff is friendly and professional. The hotel has a great location for walking to the Inner Harbor.

Nice and clean, staff is croutons and polite. Close to the harbor, rooms a spacious with great views.

Classic architecture, almost Victorian with a bit of a Steampunk vibe. A piano being played in the lobby sets the atmosphere. Very detailed throughout. The Sky Bar was really pleasant. The rooms are really comfortable with more of a modern aesthetic.

Great place for a Halloween roof top party. Had so much fun

It is really nice from what I can tell. I'm attending a professional event here and this hotel is the one to stay in at.
