A Baltimore gem

This was our second stay at Ulysses. We love everything about it - location, always lovely staff, excellent food and beverage, and design unlike any other hotel we’ve experienced. It’s a true gem.

It was a very short stay. However the staff was amazing, and the hotel was absolutely beautiful. Probably was the best sleep I've ever had at a hotel!

Brandon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved this place!! Interesting and historic decor everywhere! Room was wonderfully decorated with canopy beds. Quiet and dark for sleeping. Close to everything in Mt. Vernon. Only thing to mention is the lighting. It too is old-fashioned which means dimly lit.
The bar was spacious and cool.

Comfy bed, sassy decor

The bed was super comfortable! The room was small and the lighting very dim, so not great if you're trying to do work or sit at a desk -- but the bed is great, the shower is great, and everything was very clean. Quirky decor, which I found fun. Great location, very cool bars downstairs. Would definitely return.

aside from the super friendly staff, all three bars offered delicious cocktails and exceptional service. we stayed in one of the queen variant rooms, the view was so beautiful, it felt safe, the vibe was cozy, comfy, the entire hotel was kept clean throughout our entire 5 day stay, and we are definitely coming back and upgrading for that claw tub -just for the experience. THANKYOU
ada, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was great. Bothe the ash-bar and blooms were amazing. The service by everyone was amazing. The only issue we had was that our AC unit didn’t work so the room was terribly hot.
Ryan, 2-night trip

Great attention to detail, staff at front desk are very nice, helpful, and accommodating. The hotel was a good price and it definitely has a chill/retro vibe. I loved my stay and glad I chose this hotel!!

Kayla was amazing. She made us feel like we were home every time we returned to the property. This hotel is a gem in Baltimore. From the atmosphere, to the staff, we couldn’t be happier with our stay.
Nick, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

No Air Conditioning. Very loud nightlife. There is no vallet, unlike what is advertised. You will be spending a lot of time and money on maintaining a parking spot.

A Hotel with Personality

If you like a hotel that has a clear aesthetic that it commits to, friendly staff, and a great old-school bar, you will love this place. The decor has a really fun, kitschy-but-elegant midcentury aesthetic with a Greek theme, and the onsite bar has excellent martinis and charcuterie. All the staff were very friendly as well
