"Housed in an 1880s mansion, this Relais & Châteaux property offers ornate, luxurious rooms with 400-thread-count sheets, fireplaces, and heated bathroom floors. Guests can play pool in a cozy Music Room, enjoy complimentary Scotch at the Mansion Bar, and take afternoon tea in a Conservatory. A small, jewel-box spa on the second floor provides treatments like an ultra-hydrating full-body exfoliation, body wrap, hot-oil scalp treatment, and shea-butter massage for a deeply restorative experience." - AFAR
"The only hitch at The Ivy Hotel, a Relais Châteaux property, is the temptation to hole up there all day long. Sure, you could step right out and explore the vibrant Mount Vernon neighborhood, or have a hotel car drop you anywhere in town, 24/7—and there’s a hell of a lot to do, see, and eat in historic Baltimore these days. But with deep sunken tubs, soft cashmere throws on canopied beds, and extras like free movies and free minibar booze, can we blame you for never wanting to leave your room? When you do, Magdalena Restaurant provides five different spaces to chose dine in on creative bistro fare – the Garden Room looking out onto a walled courtyard, the cozy Treasury, the Wine Cellar, the Tasting Room, and a clubby bar. A round of billiards might follow. Plus, the hotel can provide crates, beds, and walking services if you’re visiting with your (small) four-legged friend.

"The Ivy Hotel in Mount Vernon recently reopened its restaurant Magdalena: A Maryland Bistro, with a new emphasis on more casual food, but served in the same serene courtyard where you can take in the view of the former 19th century Gilded Age mansion."
"Located in a historic Mount Vernon mansion, the Ivy has 18 guest rooms and suites, a spa, and Magdalena, one of the best fine-dining bistros in Baltimore."
