Pier 5 Hotel

Be prepared for something wild when you walk into the lobby of the Pier 5. It's bright and airy, with fun, offbeat sofas and a purple, red, and yellow color scheme. The rooms continue the theme, though they're much a quieter and more refined urban chic. Standard units are comfortable, with lots of conveniences for both business and leisure travelers. Suites are luxurious, with one, two, or even three tiny balconies overlooking the harbor or the National Aquarium. Just about every room has a water view -- and a much closer one than at any of the other hotels, as this place is only two stories high and right on the harbor. Ask about their packages for family fun or romance. Pizzazz Tuscan Grille is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner; McCormick & Schmick's offers lunch and dinner; and Ruth's Chris Steak House serves dinner.

Facilities:
3 restaurants; access to exercise room at Brookshire Suites; day pass to Maryland Athletic Club; complimentary shuttle to Brookshire Suites, Admiral Fell Inn, and Johns Hopkins Hospital
