Pasadena Travel Guide

An "amazing new hotel" with "beautiful rooms" that sport flat-screen TVs and "gorgeous, European-inspired decor", this Starwood property finds fans who "love everything – especially the divine bedding"; there are "terrific shops and restaurants nearby" and a "well-stocked fitness center", but a few say the "friendly" staff is still "trying to learn the ropes."

They "run a tight ship" at this "fashionable, affordable" hotel in an "up-and-coming" neighborhood of this "city by the sea"; while it's "a bit of a walk from the Annapolis action", it's "worth the extra blocks" for the newly renovated "modern, elegant" rooms and "well-maintained facilities" that include a fitness center/spa; the "nicest staff" "goes out of its way" to make your trip smooth sailing.

This "boutique"-style hotel has an "excellent location" in Downtown Annapolis that's about a 10-minute walk to the Market Square area and less than five minutes to famous Ram's Head Tavern; guests love the "old Irish feel" of the place, as well as the "modern", "family-size" rooms and the "helpful staff"; but a few complain of "a/c units rattling all night", bedding that's "not the most comfortable", "too-high" restaurant prices and sometimes "condescending" service.

Currently completing a renovation following DoubleTree's recent acquisition, this pet-friendly hotel still seems to "exceed the expectations" of some travelers; though it's "not near anything at all" other than "a shopping center", it does offer a "free shuttle to the Naval Academy/Annapolis" and the "considerate" staff makes "check-in and check-out very easy", plus there's an "adequate", if "small", exercise room and those "great" complimentary cookies; most are hopeful the redo will spruce up "bathrooms that need help" and fix those malfunctioning amenities.
