We just spent a 4 day babymoon at the Ivy and it was the perfect cozy getaway! The staff went above and beyond - James, Calvin, Janelle, Theresa, Anthony and everyone else were so kind and accommodating! Highlights of the trip include:
- cozy hotel room with fireplace
- best omelette we’ve ever had
- the grits - wow
- the Spa - double wow
- drivers were able to take us everywhere we wanted to go within the 3 mile radius (which is as far as you need to go to explore Baltimore)
I can’t say enough good things about this hotel and the stay! The Ivy will always hold a special place to us as we expand our family. Thank you to all the staff who made our stay so spectacular! We will be back!

We'll stay here every time we visit Baltimore. This was the best service I've experienced in the U.S. Every time we rode with James we got a history lesson that we enjoyed. Nikki was a pleasure at breakfast and afternoon tea. James provided thoughtful recommendations. And we had a lot of fun talking with Rob the night we arrived. We felt The Ivy was a great value because of the service alone, but all of the included amenities (valet, car service, breakfast, afternoon tea, bar, etc.) took the value to another level.

Our stay was spectacular!! A pinnacle in boutique luxury. Everything and everyone was lovely. We are now looking for reasons to return to Baltimore and stay at The Ivy again.

Did a one-night stay after our wedding. This place is unbeatable. What an experience. I can't imagine what they did to earn anything less than 5-stars on any review. Their attention to detail is phenomenal and the place is magical.

If you can afford this spot, the experience is worth every penny.

My husband and I met and got married in Baltimore and so we make it a point to visit from time to time. We decided to spend a little extra this time around for our babymoon. The Ivy Hotel exceeded our expectations with A+ service from the moment we got there to the moment we left (valet offered us cold beverages as he was loading our things in the car.) The hotel was very beautiful and every room was tastefully decorated. Afternoon tea was very enjoyable. The only meal we had from outside was dinner (we did not want to go out so we had the food delivered.) The concierge told my husband he would take care of it and brought the food up with a tray, plates, utensils and water. Breakfast was awesome as well, prepared fresh and customized to our liking. Even the fruits and corn bread were a step up from most other places. Nikki, who served both afternoon tea and breakfast, was excellent. To finish off our staycation, we got massages. I have had massages in various countries, but this was an entirely different experience from everything else I've had so far. Bed was heated and very comfortable, remote-controlled and can be adjusted in different areas. Music was great. Hot towels on my feet and abdomen. Dimani (I hope the spelling is correct) was very skilled, and he applied just the right amount of pressure. Husband had the hot toddy ritual foot massage and he was very happy with the experience as well. The cherry on top of the whole experience was that the Ivy Hotel had a no tipping policy, but the service was excellent all around. I feel that the pressure of tipping adds a lot of stress to vacations, but the policy to me, was what really elevated the place to worry-free luxury. Thank you to James, the nighttime concierge (I'm sorry I didn't get his name) and the rest of the staff. We hope to be back.

What a wonderful hotel filled with history and service. I have stayed at many hotels around the world, but the level of service here exceeds anything previously experienced. The food is delicious and the open bar remarkably available both in lobby and room. First class and worth the fare.

We had the most beauteous stay last weekend at The Ivy! The property is spectacular, the rooms are unique and palatial, the service is world-class, the food and drinks are divine, and all of the amenities far exceeded our expectations. We were treated with so much care and could sincerely tell that those who work on property love what they do. This is a MUST VISIT property! I'll be back soon!

The Ivy Hotel is such a special experience. From service to design to the highly inclusive amenities, everything is thought of leaving you feeling incredibly cared for and relaxed. After my first stay with through work, I brought back my husband, then my mom and sister, and then my cousins. I truly can't get enough. See Leanne in The Spa who specializes in myofascial release-- best massage I've ever had. Every room is a jewel box and I love that you can simply pour yourself a drink at the mansion cocktail bar whenever you please. Breakfast, afternoon tea, drinks, and valet are all included -- I recommend spending at least a few nights so you can truly indulge.
