    The Drummer’s Lot Pub is a trip to a historical time and place of incredible pomp and circumstance. Drink and be merry at Maryland’s legendary pub on Main Street Annapolis. Sit on a stool at the bar and be transported to the perspective of George Washington himself, as the legendary man continues to imprint his presence on the pub itself. Did I mention Anne Marie? She will play the tunes of sweet moods and treat you to drinks of delightful taste. Please do say hi for Rob and ask for a coaster to leave your artistic imprint yourself on the legendary pub.

    Top notch from beginning to end from the booking to their follow up after stay. There are three properties in total to the Historic Inns and they're all exquisitely decorated in quality textiles and comfort while maintaining the true charm and history to these properties. We're absolutely in love!!!

    Our family of 18 stayed 3 nights and we were treated like visiting dignitaries by Tyler and his entire staff at the Calvert House. Everything was made easy for every member of our family ranging in age from mid 70s to 10 years old. Our weekend in Annapolis was highlighted by our stay at the Calvert House. From checking in at the Front desk to valet parking and housekeeping, we received 5 star hospitality. The entire family wants to come back again .......soon!

    Room was amazing and staff were plentiful and helpful. Room was clean and decorated nice with top quality soaps and decent towels. Shower head was a little low for a 5-10 person and constant bathroom ventilation left the room dry. Walking distance to shops and docks. Harry browns next door has the best pizza. Food and service was top notch every where we ate.

    We had a great experience in a charming and well-maintained historical setting, the Governor Calvert House. It's a wonderful location, with easy walks to just about everything we could possibly need. The room was well appointed, quiet and spacious. we appreciated the coffee service and found the king-sized bed very comfortable. the access to the other buildings was nice, but we were not able to locate the gym facility at the Maryland Inn. it would be helpful to have a sign there. Luckily we got plenty of exercise on our many walks through the charming town. there was a wedding over the weekend, which added some action to our stay but was not very intrusive. Parking was a little tricky, but we managed to find spots in the area. overall we really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon.

    This is an absolutely amazing place to stay. We stayed in a suite which was roomy and tastefully decorated. The valets were so professional, friendly, and extremely helpful. My only complaint was about the housekeeper. Checkout wasn't until 11am, the do not disturb sign was on the door, yet at 9:15am they were pounding on the door & yelling to come in.

    We were greeted at the Maryland Inn with a toilet stained with previous occupants’ bowel movements, dirty top sheet, stained bed skirt, and stained chairs. Issues were addressed quickly along with a promise of a bottle of wine that was never delivered. The porch had caution tape along the railing and some railing posts had rotted wood. This Inn had no front desk attendant and contacting anyone was very difficult. We walked to the check in location and were told they were having the phone system updated. The only ice machine in the building was out of order during our 3 night July stay. The Maryland Inn is a very convenient location with numerous restaurants and shops within walking distance. Valet parking service very good. Pictures attached for your review.

    We have mixed feelings about our stay. The Good: On the positive, the building we were in was quiet, the room was clean and in good repair, and the location simply can’t be beat. The Bad: We arrived VERY late due to flight issues. I’d called ahead and been assured they were open 24 hours … no worries. We arrived at 3:39am and were told their system was in end of day close out mode (or something along those lines) and they couldn’t put us in a room. I explained I had the pre-paid receipts but was told there was nothing they could do. We were eventually put in a room at 5:30am … so we missed opportunities to watch our daughter at PEP and morning colors. Additionally, I’d booked the room for Fri thru Monday and then had added Thursday after the fact (again, prepaid). The hotel insisted that I come back and check out at 11am and check back for Friday (even though it was 5:30am Friday). I told them “no” as I wasn’t going to waste another minute of our very limited time with our daughter on their processes. The remainder of our stay was in eventful, though the hotel’s only attempt at rectifying the situation was a small cheese tray.

    What a beautiful, lovely place. The room was huge and very clean. The staff was wonderful. We will definitely return here

    Pros: Great location within an easy walk to shops and restaurants in historic downtown. Comfortable king room with upscale decor. Cons: very small bath, and A/C fan was quite loud. Staff was friendly, but could use some additional customer service training for stress situations. (There was a power outtage just prior to our check-in that seemed to have thrown the staff into a real tizzy, and we were told upon our arrival that the valet company wouldn't valet our Tesla! They did recover and later apologized for the rough check-in experience.)

    Such a unique, historic place. Very cool experience at the Maryland Inn. Amazing location. Getting a couple drinks at the end of the night was fun in the little bar downstairs. They have card games and great cocktails. Jax and Lauren at check in and check out where very friendly and helpful. Overall awesome experience. We’ll be back!

    Great location. Perfect for my husbands reunion weekend. Our room overlooked the Old Treasury Building. We got a King bed. Bathroom is a bit small but it worked perfectly for us. It was quiet despite being on the circle. I would definitely stay again and request the same room. Visiting the Drummers Lot pub is a must. Julia Dray is a wonderful bar tender. She’s makes the place come alive. Such a gem.

    I rarely stay at hotels these days. I travel alone frequently, so I typically find other accommodation rental options that are more affordable. But, for our visit to Annapolis, I really wanted to take advantage of this historic inn and it's walkability to shops/restaurants in the historic area. We stayed in the Governor Calvert Historic King. This is located in the main building where you check in. I believe this is a little bit of a bigger room and it was great. Had a view of the state house. Pros: - Walkability to restaurants and stores - Historic atmosphere / unique experience - Has a mini fridge in room - Good water pressure and shower head (at least in our room) - Great TV station options (we were sort of stuck inside a portion of our day due to a tropical storm, so we watched TV more than we would have otherwise. Somewhere in the middle or just plain facts: - Valet is available 7 AM until (gosh, I already forgot) 11 PM? This means that if you need to leave the hotel at 6 AM and you checked your car with valet, you're out of luck! So plan accordingly. We had a rental car and I absolutely checked the car with valet. The parking around town (tight parallel spots on tiny streets) freaks me out... especially because it was raining while we were there. - Like someone else mentioned, this hotel technically "closes" in the wee-hours of the morning. There's a card reader at the door to let you in "after hours". - Check in is 4 pm ( a little on the later side ) Cons: - If you want to be nit-picky, you could complain about some of the wallpaper patchwork in our bathroom or the wallpaper application in general. It was noticeable but didn't really matter. - There's a mini fridge but no microwave. Great for drinks, but not for if you want to heat up leftovers. - Their system was down the entire time of our stay... this didn't impact us. They had a way of knowing the reservations they had. But this DID mean if, say, we wanted to extend our stay a night, they would not have been able to do this for us on site. We would have to call the booking number to do so. This number is offsite somewhere in the Carolinas (yes, I asked them where they were :P) and is the hub for the management/property owners I guess. - I think it's on the pricey side (compared to what I typically spend on overnight stays) but it was worth it for our experience. 10/10 would stay at again. I absolutely recommend booking this place a minimum of 2 nights. This way you actually enjoy a day in the town.

    Housekeeping and manager interaction (Tim and Tyler) lead to a very disappointing experience. Could not get our room made up each day. When talking with two of the on-site managers they kept insisting we had a DND sign out, which was not the case. One day the bathroom was refreshed with towels but the bed was left unmade (no personal items were left on the bed) and there was no replenishing of cups and waters. Finally received a call back from the GM, Mr. White, the morning of check out. He was gracious in listening to our complaints and comp’d 2 of our 3 nights which was very fair. The furniture in the living area of our room was dirty and stained and therefore not inviting. Location is good and close to Main Street. The guys working the valet service did a nice job overall.

    My wife and I had a great stay on my birthday. I want to thank Jax’s for her superb customer service when she checked us into the hotel and throughout our stay. Her friendly and welcoming demeanor definitely set the tone for our stay and entire visit to historic Annapolis. We will definitely return soon and stay at the Historic Inns and recommend this great Inn to our family and friends.

    Another wonderful stay at The Historic Inns!! My wife and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay magical. The rooms are clean, the staff is friendly and accommodating, and the location is perfect. Looking forward to stay number 3 next summer!

    I Loved my stay at the Maryland inn! Location and the rooms themselves are wonderful. I came for an event and was having issues with my suit pocket not being cut for my pocket square yet I stopped downstairs to the bar for a drink and not only did the bartender Remington make amazing drinks but was able to help me out personally and had great advice for dinners during our stay.

  • 1/5 Cardinham K. 1 year ago on Google
    Mixed bag here. The property is beautiful, the rooms are spacious and well appointed. Easy walk to main street and shops and restaurants. Had some issues with the hotel and staff but management reached out without hesitation and addressed the issues and made it right. Very happy that they took the time to not only make things right but also actively sought ideas from the customer point of view to improve. Very professional.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for the second time, and it was another amazing experience! The hotel's location is simply the best, making it convenient for vacation. The staff “Jax” was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable. Her assistance and helpfulness truly made a difference. The room itself was outstanding. It was not only clean but also extremely cozy and comfortable. I would love to stay again.

    This is our first time in Annapolis to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Upon arrival, your customer representative, Jacqueline “Jax”, was very accommodating and considerate to our requests/needs. She definitely went above and beyond our expectations! The Governor Calvert House was filled with historical information that we appreciated and our room was elegantly furnished. We had a great overall experience starting with excellent customer service (thanks again, Ajax!) to great accommodations. Looking forward to coming back!

    Great location. You can walk everywhere. Even better was the service. Ryan (and everyone else) was a superstar. I was dropping off my daughter to USNA Stem camp and they help make it smooth with a late checkout and even gave us a lift over to the campus, even though it is a pretty short walk, so we would not have to pull her luggage. Thanks guys! You are my Annapolis home away from home.

  • 5/5 Robert S. 1 year ago on Google
    Made for a very pleasant stay! Maryland Inn was well designed, modern, comfortable, great view, dark shades and extremely clean - both the room and all common areas. Historic Inns is well organized and thought out. Exceptional service provided by valet parking, missed his name, and front desk staff.

  • 5/5 Leanne W. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect location and great history in this hotel. We had a wonderful time celebrating our best friend’s birthday and exploring Annapolis. Jax was an amazing host and let us know her favorite spots and where to eat. She was so helpful at check in and check out! Hotel is walking distance from everything. Loved being able to valet the car and not worry about parking. Will definitely come back!

  • 5/5 Laura J. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent overall! Friendly staff at the desk. Brandon the valet was awesome--very courteous and professional. The room was comfortable and clean. The only issue was a noisy mini fridge and a loose headboard. We will definitely stay here again.

  • 5/5 Roger P. 1 year ago on Google
    Location was perfect. I stayed in the Calvert House. Ilker and staff couldn't have been more helpful. Loved the decor of the room with prominent dark wood tones. I enjoyed the history lesson. I'll be back. The price was more than reasonable.

  • 5/5 Leila E. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent and efficient customer service. Everyone working there is so friendly and the rooms are so clean. Plus, the food is so delicious. It's one of my favorite hotels I have been to... Every time I will be around the area, it will be my go-to place to stay for sure.

  • 5/5 Aaron B. 1 year ago on Google
    Had an excellent time! Best bar in Annapolis. The signature cocktails were incredible especially the Lot 49. Anne Marie is a great bartender plays great music, and the atmosphere is exactly what you want in historical Annapolis! An escape from the Main street, with superb history, and fun coasters lining the bar. Perfect way to start, or end a night out in downtown Annapolis. Make sure to design your own coaster! Have TVs for sports, but the conversation and the vibe of the bar makes you forget the games are even playing.

    Customer service was top notch. Kevin was amazing, hilarious and helpful! He found out we were in town for a friend’s birthday and gifted us with a bottle of wine to celebrate. He gave us awesome recs for where to go out & then checked in with us in the morning to make sure we had fun. Rooms were clean, comfy and beautifully decorated. We will definitely come back!

    The area was beautiful and we enjoyed our time there. However the Hotel staff left a lot to be desired. When my wife and I booked our room for an overnight get away, we weren't informed that there was an event there that weekend. The event in itself wasn't an issue, however how the hotel handled the crowd and parking was horrible. It started by us driving around the area 3 times before someone finally pulled out and we found a place to park, but it was only 2 hour parking. We then asked the kids working the valet stand about parking and were informed that their parking garage was full due to the event and that we would have to park at a garage 10 minutes away and walk back to the hotel and never actually offered valet service. When I questioned this, the 2 kids working the booth proceeded to get very smart with my wife and I making rude comments. At that point we went into the hotel to check in where we were informed again that the only parking was 10 minutes away, that we would have to park there and walk back. When expressing my disgust over the situation, I just got blank stares, nobody had answers for anything. What is the point of a valet if they don't actually valet vehicles and more importantly, as a hotel, I get letting the event use the parking garage but why would you not keep enough spaces for the reservations you have on the books or at least, if you're not going to valet the vehicles, offer a shuttle to and from the parking garage? My wife and I will be back to the area again, but won't be booking with this hotel again.

    We chose the Historic Inns of Annapolis for our wedding guest block due to its charming historic details and design and its convenient location to downtown Annapolis attractions. Although parking in the area can be a little difficult, the proximity to so many restaurants and shops meant that guests didn’t really need to move their cars from the parking garage at all during their stay. The Inns also provided a small shuttle service between their three buildings and around the nearby vicinity, which my older guests in particular were extremely appreciative of when venturing down to city dock! There was an initial issue with my room that we discovered the first night of our stay, but management was quick to rectify the situation and provided incredible customer service which really set a fantastic tone for the start of my wedding day. My bridal party and I had a seamless and wonderful experience getting ready at the Inns, and our guests enjoyed their stays as well! Not only was the stay itself great, but the customer service and support leading up to the event was incredible! Michelle was super responsive and patient with answering all my questions and checking in with me about the status of our room availability and guest reservations. For anyone getting married in Annapolis, the Historic Inns of Annapolis is a must for your guest block!

    I remember years ago when I lived near Annapolis wanting to stay at one of these. Finally got my wish. Rooms and facilities are very nice and up to date for being in buildings older than our constitution. I would definitely stay here, especially for the price I got, was actually less than the Hilton down the road and in a better location.

  • 5/5 Anthony S. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent service - I was in the Maryland Inn and the atmosphere was perfect. Within walking distance of everything. Lauren and Deep were cheerful and helpful at the desk. Valet for the car relieved any stress of worry about parking. A great experience.

  • 5/5 Rachel 1 year ago on Google
    The Governor Calvert Inn is a wonderful, historic hotel with great customer service. It definitely is worth calling for reservations instead of using the online booking system, since we were able to get a great deal on the King Balcony room with a spectacular view of the State House and downtown Annapolis. My mom and I both have limited mobility right now, and Will and David were such a huge help in valeting the car and getting our bags to our room, really going above and beyond in their kindness!

  • 3/5 Kristin A. 2 years ago on Google
    Great location and charming historic hotel. We had use of the hospitality room (wonderful) and patio, but the lights out on the patio weren't working, so dark at night. The beds were great, but there were very few electrical outlets in our room room (overlooking the ballroom) and it was very dark since it wasn't open to direct sunlight. The hair dryer was old and didn't get hot, and there wasn't any body lotion in the bathroom. Beware of the bath tub/shower -- there are no rubber mats and you can easily slip. Also, no room service unless you stay 4 nights or more.

    We got married there last year and stayed for our first anniversary this past weekend. Tyler helped us book and treated us very well with an upgraded suite. We had the absolutely best wedding day there thanks to Ashley and the best anniversary thanks to Tyler. I would highly recommend the Historic Inns of Annapolis, they have treated us so well and we always have a wonderful experience!
