My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this hotel experience. We got a corner room overlooking the harbor, and it was definitely worth the upgrade. We were able to see stunning views of the water and also the city. I'm not sure how long this hotel has been there, but the rooms are modern and up-to-date. They are more textbook than boutique. However, the location of the hotel and the views definitely get the job done. read more

We recently spent two nights at the end of February 2026 at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront with our 6-year-old daughter and came away very impressed with the property. It proved to be an excellent base for a short family getaway. The Positives: 1) Room Setup: We appreciated having two queen beds, which worked perfectly for a family of three. Both beds were comfortable, and the room layout felt functional rather than cramped. 2) Location: The hotel's proximity to major attractions was ideal. On our first full day, we walked about 10 minutes along the waterfront to the National Aquarium, which made for an easy and pleasant outing. The next day, we made a similarly short walk to the Port Discovery Children's Museum (formerly known as the Children's Discovery Center). In both instances, being able to walk back and forth without relying on transportation made the trip significantly smoother with a young child. 3) Staff and Service: The staff were consistently helpful. The concierge lounge attendants were friendly, and the front desk team handled check-in and check-out efficiently. On our departure day, we were able to store our luggage seamlessly after checking out, which allowed us to enjoy a few more hours in the area without feeling encumbered. 4) Elevators: This may seem like a small operational detail, but it mattered. We were on the 21st floor, and the concierge lounge is on the 31st. Because there is no direct elevator connection between those floors, we frequently had to ride down to the lobby and transfer elevators. Despite this added movement, the elevators were consistently quick and efficient. We never found ourselves waiting long, even during busier periods--a notable plus in a large waterfront hotel. 5) Concierge Lounge: The lounge was a real asset, particularly on our first evening. After traveling, it was convenient to piece together a full dinner from the generous spread available there. The following morning was more uneven--they ran out of food earlier than expected due to heavier foot traffic--but this appeared to be more of a planning miscalculation than neglect. Overall, having access to the lounge added meaningful value to our stay. (Lounge access is limited to Marriott Bonvoy members with elite status, which fortunately my wife has because of her frequent travels.) 6) Breakfast Buffet: We opted for the breakfast buffet on our final morning. At $32 per person, it is undeniably expensive. That said, the quality and variety justified the price. The offerings were extensive: oatmeal, grits, pork and chicken sausage, bacon, home fries, scrambled eggs, pancakes, made-to-order omelets and waffles, juices, coffee, and more. It was a comprehensive, well-executed American breakfast spread. Overall: For a short family trip to Baltimore, the Marriott Waterfront struck the right balance between comfort, convenience, and service. The location alone makes it highly attractive for families planning to explore the Inner Harbor area, and the operational execution--from elevators to luggage storage--was smooth. We would gladly consider staying here again on a future visit. read more

Nice hotel and conference Center. It is close to the waterfront and Little Italy. Been here for two conferences and once for the Wes Moore celebration party when he won the General Wlection for Governor. read more

I had a decent experience for my two nights here. The location and view is amazing ---particularly with a corner room. The hotel is on the older side but decent efforts have been made to update the rooms. The lobby is simple, nothing special overall, but there is a restaurant attached. I didn't get to try it but I stopped in to purchase coffee and waters from the grab and go. Everyone I came in contact with during my stay was pleasant Grows: -I would have liked access to bottled water in the room upon arrival. - Valet area was a bit crowded and difficult to navigate, but they moved quickly and everyone was friendly read more

Great location in Baltimore to explore a slightly different side of the city vs the main part of the Inner Harbor. I was able to enjoy lots of restaurants in the area that were off the beaten path of the harbor given the hotel's location. There is also upscale shopping available. The hotel's meeting rooms are in a bit confusing of a layout, so check the maps before you try to find them. They have main restaurant on the first floor that also serves to-go items and coffee in the AM. read more

The service, with the possible exception of the front desk, was atrocious. On each of the days we were there, no one came into our room to clean it, tend to the trash, or even provide us with fresh towels. We had to go to the front desk to get them. We were ask to rate our stay, which frankly was not a glowing review. I received a form letter reply stating how sorry they were. Baltimore is a great city, with a number of good/great hotels. This place is not one of them. read more

Not a bad value proposition. The restaurant onsite is surprisingly good. Shoutout to Carlos on the omelet station serving up magical dishes. While the area isn't busy as it once eas several years ago, you're literally ans figuratively in steps of the movie theater, grocery shopping, amazing dining as well as shopping for clothing and niche or designer fragrances. The staff onsite is always phenomenal and the views of the waterfront are refreshing. Give this place a try when you're in the area. Additionally and while I'm not a fan of buffets - their breakfast buffet is HIGHLY underrated. HIGHLY. read more

Excellent stay! I was attending a few events in the area and chose this hotel for my overnight stay! I would stay again. The reviews weren't the best when I initially looked at options, but honestly I don't have anything bad to say about this place. Checking in went smoothly. I made the reservation a few weeks ago. Since there was a Ravens home game, the hotel was completely out! I had requested a high floor. I got my wish! I was on the 24th floor and I loved the views of the city. The room was very clean and big. The bathroom was a good size. They didn't have any water in the room but was able to get some from the front desk! Everyone here was very friendly and professional. I'm a Marriott Bonvoy member and I like racking up the points. There's valet parking available. There's a nearby garage as well. I lucked out and found street parking! I stopped in at the hotel restaurant/bar, Apropoe's. Had a great time there! Ask for Dion. Thank you! read more

Worst experience EVER, and I never even made it to the hotel. I booked a Prepay & Save reservation at the Marriott Waterfront in Baltimore for May and needed an itemized receipt for reimbursement purposes. This is something I've done many times before... I receive my confirmation email and then call the property directly to request an itemized breakdown by room. Other Marriott properties have always provided this without issue. When I called this location, the team member told me they were "not allowed" to provide an itemized receipt. I was then transferred to a manager, who repeated the same thing and said they could not provide it because I had not yet completed my stay. I explained that the confirmation email did not include the itemized per-room breakdown required for reimbursement. Instead of trying to help or offer any workaround, the manager was dismissive and rude throughout the conversation. The interaction felt like they simply didn't care about resolving a very basic and reasonable customer request. The manager even stated they were fine losing a $1,500+ reservation rather than assisting, which ultimately led me to cancel my overall stay. Customer service matters, especially before a stay even begins. If this is how guests are treated before arrival, I'm glad I chose to book elsewhere. Save your money and your peace of mind! I recommend choosing another property. read more

It was ok. Not the traditional luxurious Marriott. Older, smellier, no parking, valet only which was about $54 per night. There was garage parking across the street which we found out on day 2. Manager checked in w/me via email. I responded with some concerns, no reply. read more

I was in town for the Yankees game and a friend suggested that I stay at the Marriott Waterfront. I reserved the room at the last minute on a Saturday. I found the price to be high, but on par for the area given that I reserved it on a weekend without notice. Midweek stays were fair to low in price. If I had reserved the room with advance notice it would have been half the price. The room was great and had a lovely view. It is definitely worth the upgrade for a waterfront view. We were not on a high floor and still had a great view. The bed was extremely comfortable. I slept very well and didn't want to get up the next morning. The onsite restaurant was surprisingly good and has a nice variety. The onsite gym was better than expected and provided a nice assortment of machines. I found the hotel to be modern and luxurious. I would have given it 5 stars, but for a few hiccups. The bathroom looked clean, but there were several long strands of hair in the shower. There was initially only one representative checking in guests, and I waited in line about 25 minutes to check in. I paid for the free breakfast upgrade upon booking and it was not applied. It was a significant annoyance to return to the front desk and deal with. I only stayed overnight and spent too much of my time at the front desk instead of enjoying the lovely hotel. Despite these issues I would still highly recommend this hotel and would likely stay again. read more

Attended a conference- spending a total of 3 nights. Hotel had beautiful views, was extremely clean and had excellent (helpful & kind) staff from the front desk to the property's housekeeper. The hotel lobby was under construction with some scaffolding but there were no issues and it was not disruptive to my stay. Room was spacious, had a mini fridge and coffee maker. No microwave oven. Plenty of eating and shopping surrounding the hotel with a Whole Foods and. CVS within walking distance for any snack/food. read more

I chaperoned a high school prom so I am only rating it based on the ballroom and event services. The only bad thing I experienced was the parking situation. There were multiple large scale events at the hotel so there was not nearly enough parking available. On top of that it was between 10-17 dollars to park for the duration of the event. The ballrooms they had the prom in were beautiful. Large and spacious with wonderful views of downtown. Baltimore. The staff did a great job with the set up and to keep the buffet style appetizers fully stocked with fresh food. Definitely a nice venue to hold an event at. I was not involved in the event planning so I don't know what the rates are but assume it would be expensive due to the quality of the venue and the prime location. read more

Checked in at the Marriott over Memorial Day weekend. Although parking was cumbersome and the valet staff were rude, the hotel itself was nice. The views of the Baltimore Harbor were stunning, and the rooms were clean. The location felt safe and was within walking distance to local shops, eateries, and attractions. I would recommend it to anyone visiting the area and would stay again myself. read more

I've stayed here a couple times when come into Baltimore for work. Last time I even got a special room upgrade which was nice. Of course! This time the check in process was so smooth and I was able to get into my room early as well. All the staff I've interacted with each time are very kind. I've stayed at a lot of Marriotts and this one is definitely at the top of the list in terms of service and cleanliness for me. This is a random one but I also like that the little fridges have a quick chill option, to get the fridge to a cooler temp in a short amount of time. read more

I flew in for a conference and had the most wonderful experience. The check-in process went very smoothly with mobile check in, and my room was ready when I arrived. The most amazing food and coffee was had while staying here, despite my initial reservations about hotel food. I was pleasantly surprised. Being a loyal Marriott brand customer for decades, I am always a tough critic since I've seen so many properties. Marriott Waterfront does not disappoint. I felt very safe even though we were instructed to no venture too far away from the hotel due to safety concerns. We didn't feel unsafe for a moment. The amenities were above average and the downstairs bar was missing some key higher end liquors when we asked for them, but overall a wonderful experience. Concierge services were top notch and it never felt like anyone was demanding tips for great service. Great job BMW!! I'll certainly consider this property again when I'm back in the area. read more

Hotels are usually middle of the road, never terrible or excellent. I would say the Marriott Water front is upper-middle when compared to others in its class. The front desk service was pretty great. I was checked in by a very personable guy who quickly gave me everything I needed along with some good information. I had a single King room, and my window looked out over the city, but the first 75 feet of the view was the graveled roof, so all I could see was the upper portions of some of the taller buildings. No big deal for me as I am not there to live in the room. The bed and pillows were a bit soft for me, but everything was clean. I woke up with a slight neck issue that was fairly easy to deal with. The water was instantly and scaldingly hot, as is the norm for hotels. Some features: a 24hr inside gym on the 5th floor, single-serve coffee brewer with 2 coffees, 2 teas, and the necessary accessories, an in-room mini-fridge, alarm clock, and smart TV. I was there for a conference that was hosted in the hotel, and so I can speak to the service staff for that as well. We had food and drinks every few hours for the course of the conference. There were plenty of staff around, and the food was pretty good and consisted of everything from continental breakfast type items (bagels, muffins, scones, etc) to buffet meals (tacos, soups, salads, fish, barbeque, etc), and small desserts. One that stood out was a tres leches cake (wow)... how many leches? (tres). They had glass-front refrigerators with drink as well as plenty of coffee, iced tea, and water. The general, large restrooms were pretty clean. Towards the end of the day, the disposable hand-towels ran out and the trash had built up. As far as what is nearby in Baltimore... well everything is nearby. Lots of great restaurants, the water front, museums, etc. I'd gladly stay at this hotel again for sure. read more

The Marriott Waterfront is a beautiful property with great views of the inner harbor. Very nice large bar, great staff and well appointed rooms. The location is great for some excellent Baltimore restaurants in Little Italy, Fells Point and the Inner Harbor. I have stayed here many times to attend events in the Baltimore City area. Easy to get around and Uber if needed to nearby locations. We stayed at the hotel August11th. That was the same evening the Philedelphia Eagles were in town to play the Ravens. When the team arrived the streets were blocked and we were unable to get to the Marrriott parking garage. The next day when the team headed for the stadium no one could catch a Uber because the roads were blocked off again. Police eveywhere, outside, inside to protect the Eagles. My point, is the arrival and departure of the Philedelphia Eagles should have been handled in a way that it did not interfere with other paying guests. Many people were attending weddings and had to scramble to get transportation that could not drive up to the Marriott. Thankfully the Ravens won, so that calmed down off the ledge. LOL read more

A few snafoos but overall turned into a wonderful experience! I came here for a business meeting. I was fortunate to receive an early check-in with a nice view of the harbor. I noticed that the room smelled strongly of paint and chemicals, but I figured it would get better. I came back three hours later and the smell was even stronger. I asked the front desk if they were doing work and if if it would be done soon or if we expected the smell to continue. They didn't answer the question and instead upgraded me to a corner room with a gorgeous view. Everything was smooth sailing from there with no issues. The conference facilities were wonderful and I would stay here again for a meeting. Cons: -lounge offerings minimal with no lunch and nothing on Saturdays -no pool read more

Recent stay was in town for a concert. Hotel is not up to standards for a Marriott. I will not stay there again.

It is a wonderful place to stay, ideally situated with lovely views. There is an abundance of activities and experiences to enjoy during your visit. I hope you have a pleasant time! read more

The staff at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront are exceptional. Year after year, the same wonderful staff greet us warmly and make sure our stay is exceptional. From gifting our children small stuffies upon arrival to remembering our names every time we enter the lounge, I am consistently impressed with this hotel. It is also so centrally located and walkable to all of the most kid friendly attractions - Port Discovery, the National Aquarium, Camden Yards, etc. The water taxi is also so easy to use and gets you quickly to the Maryland Science Center. The rooms are clean and large, and, in my opinion, a great value for the price. If you are looking for a comfortable, centrally located hotel with an incredible staff, this is the place for you. read more

This Marriott has been good before, and while we had some issues on this stay there was staff here who helped to change our minds by the end of our stay. My one biggest complaint is the bedding situation. It really skeeves me that they are giving us a naked duvet with just a sheet on top and under it. Would it be that much more expensive to just get a duvet cover so the grimy duvet that doesn't get laundered isn't touching my bare face at any point? Separately, huge thanks to Thurston who followed up with us about resolution for some issues and really did turn our trip around with his kindness and thoughtfulness. Adrien at Apropoes was an absolute pleasure as always, we love seeing Adrien every year!! And Chelsea with the awesome butterfly clips was so helpful, friendly, and understanding. Kelvin at the front desk was also very professional and helpful. read more

This space was great for (except for the downed escalator) the National Forum for Black Public Administrators"a (NFBPA) annual FORUM!

Nice accommodations. I attended a line dance award ceremony. The hotel rooms are spacious with a couch in them. The staff were all wonderful. The hotel is located very close to many eatery venues with nice overview of the city. The only complaint were the elevators were busy the entire stay. The hotel is big enough for large conferences but the elevators are very limited to accommodate high crowds. So be patient and plan to get an early start when you have to depend on the elevators. read more

3.5 I didn't stay at this hotel and thus cannot comment on rooms nor room service, check-in/out. I visited the Marriott for a Book Lovers Breakfast, and I was in a large conference room on the 2nd or 3rd floor. The conference room was very grand, able to accommodate 50 or 60 tables that sat 8-10. There wasn't much room to navigate around the tables with so many folks there, and especially since a lot of the people there were disabled and used wheelchairs and walkers/walking sticks, etc. The AV equipment worked fine and I was well able to hear all the speakers that afternoon, so I guess I would recommend this Marriott for a conference venue, though I wouldn't try for more than 500 folks in that room. The biggest issue I had was the food. It was very sub par in my opinion and I ate very little of it. Disappointing because it was a breakfast for avid readers. read more

Didn't eat at the restaurant but watched a football game at the bar with good beer. Service was good and staff were extremely friendly! My view of the harbor from my room was gorgeous and spectacular lit at night. Overall a very good Marriott within the group! read more

This hotel is located in a very convenient location. Downtown Baltimore. Walking distance to nice places around harbor east. Hotel itself i think is beautiful. Lobby is bright and spacious. Lots of Mirrors. Nice art. Very clean. Rooms small but nice. Nothing special really. But nice comfy vibes. Here couple more pointers 1. Security guard - very ignorant. Rude. He literally yelled at me for taking pictures in the lobby. I never heard that it's illegal. I asked front desk later. She said it's ok. However no apology for his horrible behavior. I never encountered such ignorance before. 2. Parking valet. Or garage. Valet guys are very nice. No complains. About 30$ if it's not overnight. 3. Restaurant is not bad. It's hit and miss. Example. Once steak was coming out terribly cooked. They sent manager. She apologized. And offered 20 percent off. Ok! However. With a right bartender - food comes out just right. Ashley has been great. I had nothing but best experience with her. That place gets pretty busy. Couple televisions to watch sports. plenty of available sitting. If not bar. Behind the bar. Butter is huge!!! Salad is great ! Crab cake sandwich was amazing Fries a bit too salty and too stringy. But that could be my personal preference for less salty items. Wings with honey old bay sauce were good!! So i do recommend. To check this place out. read more

Recently I've had my second stay at the Marriot Waterfront. I have found the accommodations very pleasant. When I arrived this time, the Deluxe King Room that they gave me was on a much lower floor than last time. Initially this was an issue because the windows faced a patio area next to the gym that afforded no privacy at all. I could just image some patron walking out there with their kids getting a good eyeful of my goods. So I requested a change, and I was swiftly given another King Deluxe on the same floor with a stunning view of the hotel next door and Waterfront. At their core, most hotel rooms are the same: slight variations of industry standards. This King Deluxe and the last one on a higher floor are at the higher end of those standard measures. What is always impressive is the bed. Yeah. You'll sleep well my friend. The area downstairs is always manned with staff. No searching for someone even during the wee hours of the night. The restaurant and bar attached to the hotel is awesome. Although it does close a bit early for a New Yorker's tastes. But you are very close to other late night options. The gym has some great treadmills with videotrails. All tolled, the stay is worth the extra coin. read more

The Hotel is right on the water in an amazing spot . We had the room facing the water with all windows and I loved it. When we entered the lobby they were passing out drinks. We had the option of a ros'e beverage with vodka in it or a non alcoholic. We chose the ros'e of course and it was super yummy. We checked in and even though it was super busy we received great customer service. Our room was perfect except for the bathroom in the shower I found a few hairs. And our floor towel did have a dirt mark on it. Not sure if the cleaning crew forgot to clean the shower but that was not ok. We asked the front desk for a toothbrush because my fiance forgot hers and they never brought us one. We only stayed one night we live in VA and just came to Baltimore MD to see a show. So we didn't spend much time in the room. Check out went smooth, professional staff. But I can't give this location more than 3 stars because our bathroom was not fully clean and I don't want to clean a shower before I use it when I'm at a hotel. Also customer service is everything sometimes your guest forgets essential items and when you say yes we will bring a toothbrush right up and 30-45 min later we haven't recieved it that's just not ok. read more

Was here as part of a wedding group. We were scheduled to arrive Friday, however, my husband forgot his driver's license and we were unable to make our flight. There were no other flights available until the next day. I immediately contacted the hotel and explained the situation. They explained the cancellation policy, but said they would see what they could do. They connected me with a Bonvoy rep, who checked with someone, and I was told they would make a special exception and I wouldn't be charged for the one night we missed. When we arrived, front desk had no record of this, but also went to check with someone. I was told we would not be charged. Our Am Ex was charged for both nights. When I questioned, I received a "canned" e-mail response regarding policy. No credit. Either everyone lied, or they were just trying to get rid of me. Shame on Marriott! read more

This was a terrific conference venue. I was here for 4 days for a convening and really enjoyed my stay. Staff was friendly and helpful. Suites were in relatively close proximity to the grand ballroom and other conference rooms, so it was easy to go back up to my room and freshen up between sessions. Food was great - the honey Old Bay wings at Apropoe's were to-die for (and I'm a wing connoisseur!) The surrounding area is pedestrian-friendly and there are so many places you can check out nearby if you have the time. read more
