Baltimore's lodging options are extensive, and there are hotels conveniently located throughout the city. The most popular places to stay are in downtown Baltimore, near the Inner Harbor, Fells Point, or near the BWI Airport.
The redeveloped Inner Harbor, is a major attraction, where visitors can tour the National Aquarium, shop and dine at Harborplace, and see historic ships on display in the harbor. If you've ever wanted to try Maryland's famed blue crab, an Inner Harbor restaurant is the place to go.
A trolley bus and light rail system make it easy to get around, but for the best views of the city, take a harbor tour ship.
Baltimore is a vibrant port city and a center for major sporting events. Visit Oriole Park at Camden Yards, home of the Oriole's baseball team and the NFL's Ravens, as well as the Sports Legends Museum.
The esteemed Johns Hopkins University and Johns Hopkins Hospital are also in Baltimore.
Baltimore has world-renowned architecture, performance arts organizations, and museums. Mt. Vernon is the city's cultural hub, and if you're interested in art, head to the Station North Arts and Entertainment District.
History buffs will enjoy expanding their knowledge at Civil War Baltimore sites and exploring the Fell's Point neighborhood, where the city's past is still alive.
From baseball to seafood, Baltimore is a city with something to please everyone.
I loved that HotelGuides helped me find a hotel. You can try to search for one yourself, but this service was so helpful. Just click on the section of the Interstate you are driving on and you see a list of hotels that actually have rooms available.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
