• Great location, very nicely appointed room, quality place.
• Two items needed repair and were not taken care of by the staff. On check out I was blown off when I mentioned this.

“The location could not have been better for Annapolis, right on Church circle in easy walking distance from everything you'd want to do. The unique structure on the corner was wonderful to look at.”

• I liked the individual quality of each room -- nothing cookie-cutter. Location great. Historic nature.
• Coffee in lobby urns was not hot. Xeroxed sheets explaining hotel's history were cut off at bottom and too light to read well.

“The location was wonderful -- in center of historic district plus not far from the water. Very clean. People passing by on the street stopped to look at this wonderful building. Great experience.”

• The decor was absolutely beautiful.
• Due to the location, it was valet parking only at $20.

“These are incredible properties located in the heart of Annapolis. For anyone desiring to have a "Historic" visit, this would be the place to stay. The rooms were gorgeous, but the parking situation was an aggravation to me as I did not desire the extra expense of the valet parking and then of course, tips. I was also there for business on the OTHER side of Annapolis, so the location wasn't great for me. However if you want to be close to the Naval Academy or any of the historic spots downtown as well as the City Dock, this would be the place to stay.”

• None.
• hotel was booked and they had to get another room at another hotel.

“Don't know how to review. I called to let them know I would be late arrival. when I arrived, the hotel was booked and they had me stay at another hotel. although there was free parking at this hotel, the hotel they booked me in charged $15 for parking and they did not cover this expense.”

• Not much!
• Parking is inconvenient.

“First two rooms we were given were not made-up. Had to track down someone to help us which took time. On third try we were given a larger, very nice room.”

• The location is perfect for a nice walk down Main Street to the Harbor.
• The check-out receptionist was not very friendly.

“This hotel is in an excellent location. Annapolis is a great walking city and this hotel puts you in the perfect spot to see all the sites of the city. The only inconvenience was the check-in, which is done at another building. A valet then escorts you to your particular hotel at a cost of 20 dollars. You have the option of parking your car yourself, but trying to find parking on a summer afternoon in Annapolis is hard to do. Overall, we had a great stay.”

• Perfect location, wonderful staff, nice rooms, comfortable beds, relaxing environment, impeccable service, garage parking.
• Nothing I can think of.

“Quaint hotel formerly the home to the first two governors of Maryland. Fifty-Five comfortable accommodations in a relaxing atmosphere. Very friendly staff who were quite responsive. Rooms were good size and beds quite comfortable. Perfect location as Main street was two short blocks away. Parking on the street was very tight but we had valet parking for $20. Free in and out use of car. Restaurants short walk away. One right next store. Normal price of room was $229. We paid $80”

• Close to everything; staff very professional and helpful.
• Loud fan (but we opened the window and did not need the fan.

“Nice hotel close to everything in Annapolis. Our room was small but comfortable. We took the valet parking ($20 per 24 hrs - May 2006 cost) rather than park a block or two away in unknown place (no free parking in Annapolis). I'd happily stay there again.”

• Perfect location for Annapolis business. Beautiful room.
• Expensive parking - $20 daily.

“Across street from State Capital building. I was traveling on business, but this would be great for a romantic get away. Room 218 where I stayed was beautiful but would be a problem for anyone with mobility problems.”

• Beautifully appointed and clean staff was just wonderful and very accommodating.
• Might be hard in hot weather because windows do not open and air conditioning is not great.

“We truly enjoyed our accommodations, clean and nicely decorated (recently remodeled). Our first night was in the Johnson house and the air did not work so the next night they moved us to the Maryland house and an even nicer room. For the inconvenience they gave us a ticket for brunch for 2 in the Treaty of Paris Rest VERY Good! They also swallowed the 20.00 valet parking for us. They were so nice and we would most certainly return to the Historic Inns of Annapolis. ”

• The newly remodeled rooms are very nice but sheets should be washed after they are purchased and before they are used.
• The hotel is very loud. You can hear the people in the room next to you at all times. Hotel staff are not attentive and terrible with customer service.

“I have stayed at this hotel before and I must say that they are headed down with customer service. Since my last stay they have remodeled with is very nice but the current staff needs to be remodeled as well.”

• Few extra amenities.

“The other reviews I read about the hotel may have been old, but I thought the hotel was great. It has a great location, a 2 minute walk from main street. The room was beautiful. we stayed at the Robert Johnson house, so I can't vouch for the other buildings, but I would assume they are very similar and hopefully just as nice.”

• Air conditioner and heat did not work in our room, called maintenance, but never fixed.

• Nothing.
• Failed to disclose the mandatory $20 per night valet parking charge.

“They moved us to a lower quality hotel in an inconvenient location. The second hotel failed to clean the room the first day and the keys would only work one day at a time. A valet parking charge was mandatory but several days they parked the car at an unprotected public lot 10 minutes away.”

• Walking distance to just about everywhere you'd need to go to.
• Valet parking rates were too high and waiting for valet services to bring car.

“This hotel was right in the heart of Annapolis, so getting around in town was very easy. The hotel we stayed in was the Maryland Inn (They have 3 different buildings) The rooms were extremely small, no vending machines, no ice machines and the mandatory valet parking was not only over-priced it also took quite a long time to get your car delivered. The rooms had updated items such as: Flat screen TV's and stereo alarm clocks, robes & complimentary soaps & shampoo. Our room had a completely updated bathroom, thank goodness however, the bedroom rug looked to be from at least the 30's era. It was not the worst place I've ever stayed in BUT, I would have enjoyed it much better if they had at least a place in the building to buy a can of soda & get ice after the restaurant closes. But if you are looking for a quaint "1700's" historic hotel, in the heart of old town Annapolis, this is it.”

• I loved the classic feel and decorations as well as an ideal location for sightseeing.
• Unfortunately my special requests were lost and we were placed in a smoking room with one double bed.

“When I travel, I do not care about amenities such as weight rooms, pools, etc. I like a beautiful room with a comfortable bed in a good location. This hotel provided all three. We were able to do all of our getting around on foot. Also, the complimentary coffee was of good quality.”

• No coffee pot in room and horrible parking but good valet service.

“This is my third visit to the Historic Inns. I always arrive feeling as if I have been welcomed to a small European hotel and leave feeling refreshed. The Historic Inns are my favorite place to stay on the East Coast when I need a hotel that is both efficient and charming.”

• The rooms were clean. The beds were comfortable. Location was very good.
• I would like a hotel employee in the hotel. No front desk; it was located at another inn.

“Very nice Inn. Great location, clean. Staff was nice. No parking in the area, only valet which makes it hard if you want to go in and out. But it is a short nice walk to the waterfront.”

“Overall cleanliness was not what was expected. There was dust on the floor, gum under the bed and a hairpin. Also there was mildew on the wall. Too bad, it could be a beautiful hotel with a litte extra effort.”

“My husband and I stayed at the Inns of Annapolis for our honeymoon. When we arrived, the staff said our room was ready, but when we went to the room, it wasn't. We were given another room, which was a smoking room and we had requested non-smoking. The third room was a charm and we enjoyed our stay very much.”

“We stayed in the Robert Johnson, one of several of the Historic Inns of Maryland. It's within walking distance of everything in downtown Annapolis, right across the street from the state capitol. The place was clean, the staff was friendly and the accommodations were excellent. It had a great, unique historic feel (well, I guess that's real history...) and modern conveniences enough to satisfy us.”

“I was very disappointed with the hotel for the following reasons: 1. It was billed as "Annapolis waterfront" yet the hotel was on top of a hill 6 blocks away and you could not even see the water. 2. There is no parking available except for a valet service for an additional $18 a day which was not mentioned in the original quote. 3. The bathroom sink did not work. 4 There was no remote for the television.”

“The location could not be beat!!!!! The only improvement would be addition of items like ice machine, soda machine (self serve items), since the office was several blocks away.”
