The Spotlight on Hotel Ulysses a Member of Design Hotels

Luxury Vibes and Live Beats in the Heart of Baltimore

Modern, eclectic, and full of character, Ulysses, an Ash Hotel offers a stylish stay right in Baltimore’s Mount Vernon neighborhood. Just a short stroll from major music venues like Baltimore - Penn Station and Inner Harbor, this 5-star boutique hotel blends historic charm with modern sophistication, making it a fabulous home base for concert-goers.

Why Concert-goers love it

With popular venues just minutes away, you can catch your favorite artist without the stress of long commutes. Thanks to the hotel’s central location, late-night Ubers are easy to find, and you’ll appreciate the 24-hour front desk if your show runs late. Plus, while the hotel has a buzzing nightlife scene of its own, the soundproofed rooms mean you’ll still get a peaceful night's sleep.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to explore Baltimore’s vibrant music and arts scene
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples making a fun, music-filled weekend out of it
  • Fans needing a stylish but quiet space to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want a taste of luxury

Food and Drink Options

Feeling hungry after the encore? Ulysses has you covered with an on-site restaurant and a lively bar. While there’s no mention of 24/7 room service, the concierge can point you to excellent late-night dining spots nearby. Breakfast is available on-site too, perfect for those slow, post-concert mornings.

Nightlife Options

Ulysses features its own nightclub for guests who want to keep the party going without leaving the building. Plus, you’re a quick ride from Baltimore’s best bars, lounges, and clubs. Prefer something more low-key? Grab a craft cocktail at the hotel bar and unwind.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s unique, artsy atmosphere, friendly staff, and comfortable rooms. Many love the location for its walkability to concert venues and downtown attractions. The bar and nightlife options on-site earn high marks too.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that while the hotel’s style is stunning, the bold decor might not be for everyone's taste. A few reviewers also noted that parking can be tricky, so plan ahead if you’re driving.

The Bottom Line

If you’re heading to Baltimore for a concert, Ulysses, an Ash Hotel offers the perfect mix of proximity, nightlife, and luxury comfort — all wrapped up in one unforgettable stay.

Great hotel in a great...

Liked: Great hotel in a great location. Easily walkable from Penn Station and surrounded by bars and restaurants and concert venues. The hotel is beautifully designed and the staff are great. Be sure to check out the happy hour in the lounge.
Disliked: The room was kind of small and the air conditioner kept turning itself off. Not sure if this was an eco-friendly setting that it defaulted to or not, but I had to keep turning it back on during the night.
