Frommer's Review

Built in 1905, this elegantly restored Edwardian mansion is located just a few blocks from Beacon Hill park and the Inner Harbour. Commissioned by local industrial baron R. P. Rithet as a wedding gift for his daughter Gertrude, it seems only fitting that it survives today as a charming retreat favored by newlyweds and other incurable romantics. The inn features fir paneling, mahogany floors, antique furnishings, and stained-glass windows. The nine guest rooms are lavishly decorated and filled with fresh flowers from the garden. Some suites also have skylights and French doors that open onto the garden. For couples who want to get away from it all, book the cozy Beaconsfield Suite. Located on the third floor, this attic room has a four-poster canopy bed, a sitting area in front of a wood-burning fireplace, a jetted tub, and a window seat. A full hot breakfast is served in the sunroom or the dining room, and afternoon tea is served in the library. Children, pets, and smoking are not permitted.

Facilities:
Access to nearby health club; Jacuzzi
