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!

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.

Cool aesthetics, not much else
Hotel is very cool aesthetically, but that’s basically what it offers! No hair dryer, no ironing board. My room had a steamer that didn’t really work. Rooms are clean and look good for instagram, but that’s where it ends for me. No coffee in room. I am a previous Baltimore resident, so I know my way around, but I wouldn’t stay here if you don’t have some familiarity with Baltimore. Rooms were clean; staff was friendly. Bar is good but expensive for area. ($24 before tax and tip for a happy hour drink and hummus plate).

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.
