The Ivy Hotel

I booked an overnight reservation for my husband's birthday celebration. The entire experience was unique and simply outstanding in every way! We were made to feel VERY SPECIAL by each and every staff member with whom we engaged. We were CONTINUALLY welcomed throughout the stay from the person who opened the car door and greeted us by name to the very knowledgeable concierges, the room service staff, the culinary staff, the bellman, the driver, Lottie Dottie and EVERYBODY! The hotel was very clean and beautifully adorned with pictures, books, furniture, plants and artifacts that told the story of the hotel. This includes the very accommodating bedroom with a comfortable canopy bed and a pristine, spacious and updated bathroom. One could ALWAYS count on soul-stirring music playing in the background of every public space. Each tune moved us to murmur the lyrics regardless of where we were and what we were doing. Ever had a snack attack? No worries! The room was well stocked with a variety of goodies and beverages to soothe those evening urges. And, finally, let me praise the food selections offered to us at teatime and breakfast. Homemade jam, almond butter, muffins, oat flapjacks, chicken sausage, eggs, and more! This was quite an awesome getaway! And, yes, we would do it all over again!

You will not find a better place to stay in Baltimore! Hands-down, one of the finest properties in style, Service and fabulous food! People that work there go above and beyond and it shows! Spotless, hotel, fabulous food, and incredible people that work there

My favorite Baltimore Spot! We live in the area and visit The Ivy and Magdalena frequently. It's the perfect relaxing getaway! It's absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and intimate! And everyone is so warm and welcoming! They make a lovely stay perfect!!!

Stayed here for a night to celebrate our wedding anniversary and was upgraded to a suite on the first floor with its own private terrace. Built in 1889, it has the charm and history that the more modern hotels (like Four Seasons) does not have. With only 18 rooms/suites, it also felt less crowded, which was a nice touch. Recommend looking into this place if you're not in need of a pool or a harbor view. We're locals so none of that was important. What was important was an intimate setting, good restaurant and personal attention and it delivered.

We had a wonderful time at the Ivy Hotel in August 2024. The staff was very attentive and anticipated all of our needs. The room was spotless, large and comfortable and the amenities were unparalleled (open bar, tea service, stocked complimentary mini bar, no tip policy, plenty of books and games, great breakfast). We are definitely coming back.

one of the best hotel experiences ever. Amazing staff couldn't do enough to make our stay special. Lovely, spotless, intimate hotel with incredible rooms. Dining room was another perfect experience. Over could not be happier, zero problems or issues. So happy to have had this experience.

One of the best hotels anywhere. The attention to detail and guest comfort is beyond compare. The entire experience is amazing.

There is NO experience like this! From the moment you pull up to the hotel, to the moment you leave, you are treated like royalty, celebrity status, and EVERYONE there was genuinely kind and gracious, wanting to make sure your stay is the most memorable experience. Words can NEVER describe this experience and I will most assuredly be coming back!

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary with a stay at the Ivy. It was by far the best hotel experience we have ever had. Everyone on the staff we encountered addressed us by name and with a smile. Our suite was so comfortable and relaxing that we rarely felt the need to leave it. When we did go out to dinner, Preston drove us to the restaurant and gave us a mini tour of downtown on the way. He also pointed out the other places we might want to eat while we were in town. He then said he would pick us up whenever we were ready to leave. Our visit to Magdalena was also exceptional. The food was very good and the staff made sure to provide anything we wanted and some things we didn't know we wanted. Their recommendations were spot on. Once again, the service was excellent. We took advantage of the couples massage at the spa and had a fantastic experience there as well. The ladies there were also excellent and made it extremely difficult to leave. Any future visit to the Ivy will have to include a massage. Our son is in school in Baltimore and somewhat of a Baltimore history buff. He stopped by to visit us during the afternoon tea (also excellent) and Calvin gave him a personal tour and explained the history of the building to him. We were all impressed by the depth of knowledge and level of detail Calvin was able to go into regarding everything from the floor tiles to the chandeliers. It was clear to us that everyone on the staff of the Ivy is well trained and enjoys their job. The level of customer service surpassed our expectations at every level. We will definitely stay there again. D Horsey
