"The Kimpton group, those purveyors of design-savvy, urbanite-friendly accommodations across the U.S., have gone all Gilded Age with Baltimore’s Hotel Monaco, a restored 1906 Beaux Arts belle replete with painstakingly preserved period detail. (This was originally the headquarters of B&O Railroad, for you Monopoly aficionados). It’s the sort of thing rail barons would dream of, if there were any rail barons left, from the statuary atop the archway at the entrance to the original Tiffany fixtures and the balustrade-lined marble staircases." - Tablet Hotels
