I recently stayed at the Canopy Baltimore and really liked the hotel overall, as it’s in a great location, walkable to many restaurants and Whole Foods, has a clean, modern design, and a pleasant atmosphere. I also want to highlight Valerie at check-in, who was amazing. She took her time helping me find a room that worked for me and was patient and genuinely kind throughout the process. Her level of service stood out.
With that said, I need to mention something I don’t see discussed much: the mattresses here are extremely unsupportive.
Just like my experience at the Conrad in Las Vegas, the bed at this Canopy property is a Serta Perfect Sleeper model made specifically for Canopy. It feels customized with cheaper foam and a low coil count, which means it sinks in deeply and breaks down quickly under use. When I sat on the bed, it felt more like lying in a hammock than on a supportive hotel mattress. After 180+ hotel nights this year, across many brands and price points, this unfortunately ranks among the least supportive mattresses I’ve slept on, and even more budget Hilton brands like Hampton Inn and Doubletree have way more supportive mattresses. This isn’t a soft vs plush vs firm preference, but simply a lower-quality mattress likely built with cheaper materials and a lower coil count. In looking at the rest of the room, it honestly looked like the decorative bathroom slider door probably cost more than the mattress.
To be clear, staff was kind and accommodating, and I enjoyed my stay otherwise. But if you need proper back support or tend to notice mattress quality, this is something to be aware of when booking. The hotel has a lot going for it, but I just hope they upgrade the beds to match the rest of the experience.
