LOVE this hotel! The decor and speakeasy vibe are amazing room was clean and well decorated the bar was really cute this place is definitely picture worthy. PAY ATTENTION to the parking lots near the hotel! Most kick you out at 6am unless you pay for 2 days ahead of time so that’s the only downside

I thoroughly enjoyed my 8 day stay at the Ulysses Hotel. The staff was great. They have two restaurants and two great bars. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in the neighborhood and Baltimorians are so friendly that you can laterally make new friends by standing on the corner.

Staff was exceptional - extremely helpful, pleasant and responsive. The design of the room and restaurant were exceptional. Shower water pressure was pretty awful but it didn't affect our weekend. I'd recommend The Ulysses to friends.

This was our first time staying at the hotel and it did not disappoint! My boyfriend and I chose the queen sized room. It was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. It was a small space however, we loved the vibe. The hotel’s decor was interesting and beautiful. We loved the location and parking was easy. This place is a definite when we need to spend the night in Baltimore. 😊
