"When I stayed last year, the groovy vibe—and those 1970s‑look patchwork bedspreads—tempted me to take one home; I’d have used it at home, while the more enterprisingly stylish might even whip it into a Bode‑esque wrap." - Mark Holgate
"Baltimore is another city on this list that is steeped in history, but if you're not much of a history buff, there's still plenty to enjoy about the city. Known for its seafood and beautiful waterfront, (and, of course, for being the setting of the musical Hairspray), you'll certainly want to indulge in crab cakes, oysters, or crab dip, especially if you can do so along the water. There are also tons of budget-friendly activities, including walking through Fell's Point, a great neighborhood filled with restaurants, shops, and entertainment, touring some of the museums, taking a peak inside the Peabody Library, or walking alongside the harbor."
"In many ways Ulysses’ design reflects the city being a hidden gem. 'The Latrobe building is stoic and unassuming from the outside, but once you walk through the doors, you’re transported into a magical world you can be lost in, which feels very Baltimore,' says Lauren Sandler, Ash’s Director of Food and Beverage." - Khalid El Khatib
"In 2022, Heckman oversaw the opening of Ulysses, the brand’s fourth property, in Baltimore's historic Mount Vernon neighborhood. The hotel, once a gentlemen's boardinghouse, is a paean to louche classicism, stocked with antiques and eclectic bric-a-brac that could have been scooped up on a European Grand Tour. A sense of campy irreverence punches up the concept—a quality that can largely be attributed to the influence of indie darling and Baltimore native John Waters."
"I duck into the recently renovated Hotel Ulysses, which contains several fun spots to tuck into late in the night." - Jess Mayhugh
