Holiday Inn Express Baltimore Downtown, an IHG Hotel

“Best Baltimore hotel for location and money”

I have brought groups (church teams serving and working in the city) to stay at this hotel for many years. It’s only a 10-15 casual walk to the Inner Harbor shopping waterfront area.

I have brought groups (church teams serving and working in the city) to stay at this hotel for many years. It’s only a 10-15 casual walk to the Inner Harbor shopping waterfront area. The hotel staff is accommodating and helpful for any need. The rooms are spacious and newly renovated. You won’t find a better hotel for the money. I highly recommend.

“Nice big room”

Our room was large and newly decorated, which was nice, however there were stains on the couch and carpet which could have been steam cleaned properly. The breakfast was fresh and had good variety.

Our room was large and newly decorated, which was nice, however there were stains on the couch and carpet which could have been steam cleaned properly. The breakfast was fresh and had good variety. The hotel is a little out of the way to the harbour (15 minutes walk), and some reviewers had mentioned feeling unsafe. We didn’t find it scary or shady, all the streets are well lit, and the foot traffic was just normal people going about their day. The Sunday farmers market was a pleasant find. Every night there were sirens and THAT could be heard through the windowpanes. If you’re a light sleeper, this would not be ideal.

“Nice if you don’t need reliable transportation”

We stayed here the night before a cruise out of Baltimore Harbor. The hotel is an old bank with plenty of character. We stayed here specifically for the park and ride option. The morning of our cruise a van picked us up and delivered us to the ship without an issue. The return from the cruise 8 days later was a different story. We called the number on the card given to us at the port. The company is 5th Avenue Transportation (AVOID!!!). We were told to go to the pickup area and it would be 30 minutes. After 45 minutes, we called again and were told that the driver left without us because we weren’t there. We were exactly where all pickups were waiting. We were told 20 minutes. After 25, we called again and were told that they were on the way… 20 minutes. At this point, I said to forget it, we’d call a ride share. The guy argued with me, saying that he had stopped and called out, “Holiday Inn!” This was a blatant lie. I told him never mind and we took a ride share to the hotel. Upon our return, we informed the unhelpful desk attendant what had happened and instead of apologizing, he got defensive and said that the driver went to pick us up. So, not a bad hotel and the park and ride option is ok, even if the lot is VERY tight. Just factor in the cost of a ride share back to the hotel after your trip- this will save time and aggravation.
