we needed a hotel to sleep in while traveling on 95 north this weekend. I made it to Baltimore and that was it. I saw the Hampton from the highway and got off. The Hilton Gardens Inn and the Hampton are side by side in the White Marsh Town Center. The check in was fine considering that we did not have a reservation and it was midnight. Room was spacious and clean. Bathroom was clean. Breakfast the next day was very good.

This is a fairly typical Hampton, which is not too far out of Baltimore and has plentiful shopping and dining opportunities immediately around it.

The hotel is not the newest of properties but the front desk staff were incredibly helpful, the room was clean and the stay was very comfortable. There is also a small business centre.

We'd certainly stay here again.

We stayed at the White Marsh Hampton Inn for 3 nights beginning on Sept. 20th, 2007. Pros: The bedding was very soft, very close to tonnes of restaurants, great shopping ("The Avenue" with lots of yuppie shops like Pier One, Borders, terrific restautants), breakfast staff were warm and earnest. Room had additional cable channels, such as HGTV.

Cons: The hotel is old, worn carpets in the hallways, and the room amneties seem dated. Not that convenient to downtown Baltimore (about 30 minutes at a minimum), plus you have to pay a $2 toll each way, which got a bit tiring after the tenth time. Pool closed after Labour Day (not advertised). Room lacked fridge & microwave.

All in all, it was OK, but we stayed at the H.I in Frederick.Ft. Detrick one night which was superior (see review). For my money ($150 / night) I would probably stay at one of the BWI airports if visiting Baltimore, since the price was cheaper and it was closer to Baltimore.

The breakfast ladies really are lovely though.

We stayed here for three nights in August. We were given a room on the second floor. A corner room across from the stairs. Because of that our room was larger than the standard room. The beds were extremely comfortable, the room was clean. It was a bit noisey because we faced the interstate. Maybe if you requested a room in the front you wouldn't hear road noise. The pool was okay.
The free breakfast was good. Plenty of choices. The area around the hotel had plenty of restaurants and shopping. Overall a nice, safe place to stay outside the hustle and bustle of Baltimore.
