Absolutely loved my stay at Hotel Ulysses during Baltimore Pride. The hotel has such a distinct sense of style, history, and lineage—full of character, wit, and atmosphere in a way that stands miles apart from the generic “Holiday Hyatt Embassy Gardens” blandness of so many hotels. Every corner feels intentional and memorable. Ash Bar was wonderful too, especially because it opens at 7 am, making it perfect for a beautiful early start. James and Dinga were particularly wonderful: warm, attentive, and genuinely hospitable. Hotel Ulysses made my Pride weekend feel special, stylish, and deeply welcoming. Highly recommended.

It’s a fine hotel. Pros: - amazing and crazy interior design - good views - beautiful smell - self parking nearby - friendly and helpful staff Cons: - central AC unavailable, the suite had window AC which is not powerful and very loud, the one in the window above us was dripping water and tapping all the time. - dimmers in the room didn’t work - low water pressure - lack of at least one powerful lamp - no TV apps or casting possibility

From the moment you walk in to this hotel, you know you are in for a treat! We found this place totally by accident, the hotel we had booked was closed when we got there and they recommened the Hotel Ulysses and it turned out to be one of the best things that happened on our trip! James at the desk was so friendly, informative and helpful! Our bartender, Eddie was such a professional, very knowledgeable about wines, drinks...and so much fun. He was excellent! The food was on point, as well. Love the whole decor in the hotel! So much fun! Art deco meets New Orleans. Our room was done with leopard wall to wall carpet, black and gold tiled bathroom with all black fixtures! So much fun! Canopy beds with what looked like homemade quilts! So different and just made you smile at all the little things they added. I would recommend this Hotel to anyone! Can't wait to go back :) Thank you, Hotel Ulysses!

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY The good: This place rocks an artsy, hipster vibe -- groovy 70's mirrored glass retro meets renaissance tapastries. The room was lovely -- canopied bed, artistic furniture, very coozy and sweet. The Cocktail Lounge--Blooms--is very cool. The Bad: Ash Bar and Cafe - VERY poor service. We went there for breakfast today - 9:30 AM. We ordered a simple side order of scrambled eggs and a yogurt parfait. It took a half hour to arrive! And we were the only people in the restaurant for the first 15 minutes!! Plenty of staff hanging around chatting with each other. They gave us coffee and water when we first arrived and then never looked our way. We flagged them down at the 20 minute mark to ask for a refill. Honestly, it didn't feel like the individual staffers' faults -- it felt like no one in the place had been trained by management. ...AND the Ugly: they had the nerve to charge a mandatory 20% tip.

During my recent stay at Hotel Ulysses in Baltimore, I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service, stunning ambiance, and prime location. From the moment I arrived, the warm welcome from the staff set a positive tone for my visit. They were friendly and accommodating, always willing to assist with a smile. The hotel itself boasts a modern yet cozy design, with elegant furnishings and thoughtful touches throughout. My room was spacious, impeccably clean, and beautifully decorated, offering a comfortable sanctuary after a day of exploring the city. The bed was plush, ensuring a restful night's sleep, and the view from my window was breathtaking. One of the highlights of my stay was the on-site dining experience. The restaurant at Hotel Ulysses served a great breakfast. The ambiance of the dining area, combined with attentive service, made each meal a pleasure. In summary, Hotel Ulysses exceeded my expectations in every way. With its perfect blend of comfort, excellent service, and a fantastic location, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Baltimore. I can’t wait to return!
