Holiday Inn Express & Suites Baltimore West - Catonsville by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk was fantastic. We had an issue with the time of leaving for the cruise and they accommodated us by giving us additional time in our rooms and making us feel comfortable as we waited in the lobby. It was above and beyond the call of duty. They were extremely friendly. The room was clean. The house cleaners were courteous and attentive. This was our third time staying at this property before a cruise. We will keep coming back."

Hampton Inn & Suites Baltimore/Woodlawn

8/10 Good

"My friends and I enjoy coming to this Hampton Inn for an annual event. We enjoy closing our event participation with breakfast. The dining space allowed us to have conversation and enjoy each other. 1 thing I am trying to understand why my points were not added for my stay and consideration as a member were not recognized since I booked with Expedia. Overall, great stay."
