Visited the Annapolis area over the weekend and we chose the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Annapolis for a one night stay. Check-in staff was friendly and offered us the complimentary warm cookies. Yes, please! There was a conference going on when we arrived so, making our way past their busy merchandise and vendor tables that were set up outside of the conference rooms was challenging as we were carrying luggage and navigating ourselves to the set of elevators located quite a distance away from the hotel lobby on the conference center side entrance of the building. Unfortunately, only one of two elevators was in operation. But, the 5th floor has a nice bright blue carpet design and the floor has a pleasant scent as you exit the elevator. The room was nice and we were pleased with the firmness of the beds and fluffiness of the pillows. I'd like to suggest that the bed closer to the wall be moved another foot away from the wall in order to provide a guest more space to get out of the bed on that side, especially since there is more than enough extra space in the armchair area close to the window. Overall, we liked the stay and the location is close to a lot of restaurants and shopping. So, although there were a few "oh no's" during this stay, we still recommend this Annapolis location. read more

This hotel is huge. It is like a hotel and convention center in one. Ok, maybe not that big, but there is plenty of meeting space. While the general feel comes off a bit dated, I was quite happy with how clean and orderly things were. Checking in was a bit slower than expected, however, they provide fresh cookies and a smile, so I guess a slight wait won't hurt. They offer a shuttle downtown, although they aren't very far so you can also get an uber cheaper than parking! That is win-win either way. Rooms are a decent size and similar to the rest of the hotel clean. Very sizable. Bed was comfortable as well. Water pressure was decent but I wouldn't really rave about their showers. I didn't eat at their bar-restaurant but the meal looks appealing and they have an happy hour. Overall, I cannot say much more but would recommend if you need to stay in the area. read more

I wanted to highlight the convention center side of this hotel. I attended a church banquet at this location and it was phenomenal. The staff was great, attentive, and the service was quick! The bathrooms also, were nice including a handicap stall. read more

Check in went great, friendly staff Shuttle driver John was nice to point out building Clean rooms read more

Disclaimer: We stayed at this property when the occupancy was less than normal. During the Holiday period. But, WOW! An EXCELLENT 3 Nights! We live local [on a boat], and have done so at the Hampton Inn and Hilton Garden Inn. Both need to follow the DoubleTree example. So glad we found an alternative. The Front Desk Staff welcomed Us with the Hilton Hospitality we have come to know; accommodations clean and well-appointed. If there were a suggestion, it would be that the TV was so secured to the wall that we could not access the HDMI Port, and the tech staff ignored our request for help. read more

Had a comfortable stay. We were on the fourth floor all the way by the conference center but you can park in the back. They provide you warm chocolate chip cookies when you arrive! Lobby was nice. Pool looked fun but didn't use it. Everything was clean. Had frig in room. Hallway is decorated with nautical feel. Room was good size. Front desk staff was very welcoming. Lots of stores and restaurants nearby and it's conveniently near the highway. Would stay again! read more

Double Tree by Hilton in Annapolis, MD was a extremely nice hotel. I was very glad that I was able to locate them on my Hilton App. They made us feel totally special as Hilton Diamond members and due to our level was given $30 credit at bar and restaurant. Before going out to dinner, we went down to the bar for a couple drinks. I enjoyed a Iced tea with Lemon and Lime and my hubby had a couple beers. The waiter Roger was awesome! He gave us directions to Mike's Crab House. Later went back down for a few additional drinks and a turkey club sandwich with fruit for later. The room was lovely! Absolutely loved the real glasses and stainless steel ice chest. Great location definitely recommend and will stay here again when in the DC area. read more

Went here today for a scholarship luncheon. The front desk people were very helpful. The conference was a perfect size. The food was pretty good. Orange roughy with shrimp, fried chicken, salad, mixed vegetables, potatoes, crab soup and chocolate cake and cheesecake for dessert. The crab soup was my favorite. The only thing I had to add was some salt. This is a perfect place to hold an event. Sorry, I forgot to take photos. I was too excited. read more

Our reception desk gentleman was friendly and courteous. Had dinner in their restaurant and Carlos was a wonderful fun server/bartender. Great crab soup and flatbread. read more

This is a great Double Tree. The BEST customer service. Carlos in the bar, Olivia in the dining area, Angelah at the front desk Jody at the front desk are AMAZING!!! They always make us feel very welcome & with a group of 17 people & a few senior citizens they really upped their game for us. Come by & see them. I loved my week vacation with them. read more

I was staying here for several nights at a conference. We all agreed that the rooms were extremely humid even with the air conditioning on. So humid my swimsuit didn't dry after three days. So humid the table tops and chair was moist to the touch. My papers were saggy. I notified the staff but really what could they do. The management needs to install dehumidifiers. On the other hand the shuttle drivers were wonderful!!! read more

Rooms small and low quality, feels cheap and dirty. Ceilings are low, bathroom door handles nearly falling off and don't close. Bathroom the size of a closet. Pictures are very misleading. Once you make it past the lobby you start to see the real hotel - feels more like a motel from the 90s. Go to Marriott instead. 100x better in quality and feel. Wife and I literally walked in the room, looked around, and walked back out without staying - and got no refund, no offered discount or anything. Horrible experience. Gladly paid 50$ more a night for the Marriott. read more

Great option for a stay in Annapolis. Recently did a brief staycation and this hotel was very convenient. I'm a Hilton member so I like to get my points and get a better rate! Reserved the room online. Checking in was super easy. Free and plenty parking available in the lot. The staff was very nice. Thank you Jude! I got my chocolate chip cookie upon arrival - yummy! The room was spacious and clean. The water pressure in the shower could have been stronger. Other than that, I had a good experience. I would choose this hotel again if I need to stay in this area. read more

This hotel was decent for a weekend stay in Annapolis. Front desk was friendly. The bar was lively for a summer weekend. The carpets in the hallways were a little funky on my floor. But other than that the hotel was fine. read more

We have stayed here several times and decided to spend a weekend after Christmas. We were very disappointed in how the quality of this place has declined. The room was okay, the service was okay but we booked the best suite in the hotel. Our meal was served by a guy who wore sneaker, shorts, T-shirts and had tattoo's all over his body. I don't think he spoke English either. Just served our food and walked away. I also have noticed a BIG up tick in the Jews out of New York. If you want to deal with the tribe have at it but, this is our last trip to St. Michael's. read more

The front desk, and the restaurant staffare awesome! Helpful and friendly They were simply amazing! My only negative about the place was the food on the lunch buffet. It was beyond mediocre. And that's all they offer for lunch is a buffet. So, if you can see yourself leaving the hotel for lunch that's great, I was there for a conference so for networking purposes I stayed. The rooms were clean, and I had no other issues so that's why I gave this four stars. read more

We've stayed here a few times when we were in the Annapolis area and have always had a good experience. Some of the rooms are nicer than others, but they're all good. We really like that they're dog friendly, pretty affordable, have free parking and there is a lot in the immediate area. I'm allergic to nuts, but their cookies are delicious and ready when you check-in. We were both able to work remotely here during the week with the Wi-Fi and plenty of space to escape on a sunny day outside. They have a gym that is rarely occupied and a nice pool if you're in the mood for a swim. There is also a restaurant and bar, if you want to finish your day with a drink. They also have hot coffee every morning, which is always appreciative. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Although we did not take advantage of it, they do have a shuttle that will take you within 5-miles of the hotel, which is pretty awesome. There's a lot to do within 5-miles. If you're in the area and looking for a nice place to stay, I'd definitely recommend this hotel. Oh, and don't forget your cookie! read more

I visited the DoubleTree Hotel last week for a conference. Although I did not stay overnight, I had the opportunity to have lunch there each day and see the great service they provide for special events. Throughout the conference the drink station was always stocked and the employees were quick to clear dirty dishware. There were a couple occasions where the women's room wasn't as clean as I would have hoped but it was quickly corrected. This hotel is right across the street from the mall that includes tons of shopping and restaurants. read more

This was our second time staying at this hotel and we've decided that it will be our "go to" when we're in Annapolis. They are close to downtown and they provide a free shuttle service that will take you within 5 miles of the hotel. Jodi, the shuttle driver, is GREAT! He knows the area well and can provide recommendations for most anything! Check in is quick and easy and everyone that works here is SUPER friendly. They have a nice restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and it's very reasonably priced. They also have a nice bar area (with an outside patio for nice weather evenings) that opens at 5pm and closes at 2am. Carlos, the bartender, is my favorite! He was great to us during our first stay and remembered us when we walked in this time, too. I can't wait for us to go back. We love the area and this hotel is just a bonus! read more

This hotel was good enough for the price. I didn't have any issues here. Ryan and the other young man (Diogo?) were very pleasant and helpful during my stay. I brought my dog with me and he enjoyed his stay also. Pros (general hotel): Location - proximity to restaurants, the highway, stores and the medical center. Price - pretty good for the space and accommodation Amenities in the lobby - business center, bar/restaurant, convenience store Fire pit/patio area next to bar Pros (room): Beds - the beds were so soft and plush Lighting - I had ample lights to turn on and off AC/Heat unit - it was out of the way Bathroom - size and accessibility Fridge Nice big tv Desktop space Cons (hotel) : Doggy area - The dog area had a little trash bin for the waste but it was so far away from the building. At night it was a little scary to walk down the hill to throw the pet waste away. Microwave - was located down the hall, so one microwave for 10+ rooms. Mold in some spots and in the halls. Oh and, this wasn't a big issue but for some it may be. My shower head and knob was a bit off center. Closer to the wall. And because the handicap access bar was there, I was kind of bumping into it in the shower but if you just turn it to the side you have enough space. Like I said the room was good for the value, just a few cosmetic upgrades and it'll be perfect. read more

The pool was the main reason we booked, and it was fantastic! Very big and well taken care of. No complaints for the stay overall, really. The rooms were clean and spacious and the hotel was in good shape in general. I can't speak to the restaurant/room service since we didn't use it, but it was nice to have the option. The surroundings are clearly under a lot of development right now and it's about a 15m drive to the nice historic parts of Annapolis, but that's not so bad all things considered. Would definitely strongly consider staying here next time I'm in town. read more

Very clean looking hotel, cookie is always good, a little confusing of a layout but nothing terrible, and close to a lot of shopping/restaurants - pretty convenient location. Bathroom was pretty small and cramped but there was so much extra space in the actual room. The only down side to this stay was location of my room - was right at the entrance off the elevators on the second floor - very convenient except for the slamming door all night between the elevator and the guest rooms (had it not been directly in front of my room door it probably would have been ok). The closet was extremely small but would only be an issue of you want to use the closet. read more

2nd stay here in past 3 years. The place is a maze of hallways and gathering rooms. First stay not too bad. 2nd stay back in June '24 - not so good. First room they put us in smelled of cigarette smoke. Smokers that think their Amazon tricks of covering-up the smell are breaking the rules and wasting their money at the same time. Tar and nicotine permeates all fabrics and textiles. Love how smokers care less what people think but if you do something to offend their senses, all gloves are off. They put us in another room - no problem - but the place is just overall dirty. I've been 'told' not to reserve here in the future, so goodbye Doubletree. You've lost a rewards member. read more

When I was booking this hotel I saw some of the poor ratings, but also saw some good ones, so wasn't sure what we were going to get. What we got was a wonderful stay, we had 2 rooms, both were very nice. We asked for early checkin, they were able to accommodate us with one of the rooms which was perfect. Checkin staff were friendly and helpful. They have a great shuttle (and driver John) that took us down to the waterfront and picked us up later in the evening after call. We enjoyed the bar when we returned and had a wonderful buffet breakfast. Overall a great experience and will definitely stay again! read more

I attended a conference at this hotel and was happy with a few things about it, but unpleasantly surprised with even more. Firstly, this is a Hilton facility, and by far the worst hotel owned/named under Hilton that I have ever been to. I really don't think Mr. Hilton would be very pleased to come here and stay in this place; in fact, I think he would be ashamed of it, and I'm surprised he hasn't forced changes to take place at this DoubleTree. Let's start with the accommodations- I stayed in a room that had one of the hardest beds I've ever slept on. I've been more comfortable in most Motel 6's and Super 8's- this bed was just plain uncomfortable- hard, little cushion, not supportive of the body. It felt like the mattress was 30 years old. The pillows were flimsy and not supportive also- my neck was stiff each morning I woke up. The sheets and blanket were so skimpy I had to turn the A/C down to keep from freezing. The room itself felt like it hadn't been updated in 30 years- worn carpet, older lights, dated bathrooms, an aging refrigerator. The sound insulation in the room was poor also- my room faced Route 50, and the entire time I was in my room, I heard the traffic racing back and forth, like there was a window open that I couldn't shut or something. Whomever built this place skimped on the windows- single-pane, thin glass with virtually no sound insulation provided. The hallways, elevator, and conference rooms were no better- one conference room we used had stained seats on the chairs, a carpet that had spots and looked like it had been torn up in one room and transferred to the current one. The carpet actually had pieces that you could tell had been cut in wide strips, and although it appeared they had put work into placing it back without gaps on this particular floor, my question was are they so cheap they couldn't install a new carpet? It looked really tacky. The sounds system was really awful also- frequent feedback, outdated equipment, poor quality sound- just a mess. It didn't make for great communication, especially if you were in the back. So, what was nice? The food- it was very good. I had few complaints about the meals- well done, good selection, pleasant wait staff (although they loved to take the plates before you were finished). The Italian meal we had was really good. Breakfast was somewhat limited in selection, but the food that was there was noteworthy. The front desk and cleaning staff were nice also- pleasant, responsive, and courteous without patronizing. I have no complaints there. So, I'd love to say this place is worth coming back just for the food and nice staff, but it isn't. I don't come to a hotel, especially a Hilton-named hotel to stay in an uncomfortable, noisy, dated room, no matter how good dinner is. Shame on you Mr. Hilton for allowing this to happen- this DoubleTree has so much potential, but you've allowed it to slide into a dirty, dated, dilapidated, and disrepaired accommodation. Two stars. read more

Just WOW!!! My mom is staying at the Double Tree Annapolis and I called to see if I could get a secret message and a treat sent to her room as she is visiting her new grand baby. WOW oh wow did Meg at the front desk go above and beyond. I called the front desk and told her my request and she HAND WROTE a letter to my mom and made sure to make it extra special. THANK YOU MEG!!! read more

Our room was amazing! We stayed in the Commodore John Paul Jones suite. It was very spacious. The customer service was great and the location was perfect for a Navy homecoming. It was located in a great spot. read more

My review is based solely on using the Hotel's Conference Center for a meeting. I have not stayed in rooms or used a majority of their amenities. Attending a conference on-site, it was easy to navigate to the Hotel, with ample parking. We were in the North Wing Room, which provided a large open space, great for spreading out, with super comfy chairs. Their screens provided were large, and technology easily hooked up to their complimentary wifi. We were provided a hot continental breakfast consisting of fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, potatoes, pancakes, and sausage. The food was very delicious. I really enjoyed the seasoning on the eggs and potatoes, the sausages were creamy and hearty, and the pancakes were wonderfully fluffy. There was a nice coffee bar layout, complete with fruit flavored iced water for post-coffee enjoyment. The staff were very friendly-and very attentive. Nothing neared 'running out' because staff was there to re-stock right away. They also cleared up the area very quickly allowing open space for our conference. It was a very nice meeting space. read more

This is a real Doubletree, despite the Hilton branding put on top of everything. The cookies are plentiful (and were the first cookies made in space!), the service top notch, even a bit over much as I get texts about my room before I even put my suitcase down. There was a water issue on the first night but that was hours and then fixed easily. A covered unloading area is very nice in bad weather. The star of this place in many ways is its location, across from a huge shopping complex with anything a person might need in easy walking distance and a few diners just a bit beyond that as well. Close to highways, the noise is noticeable at night, but not intrusive and any white noise machine will make that fine. The hotel has a modern cozy sensibility to it, with a restaurant on site and a LOT of geometric design elements. Plenty of parking, elevators worked quickly and easily, the gym was an extremely well maintained surprised in its variety of modern equipment and cleanliness, good coffee nook, it is a great hotel and I'd stay again. The overall logistics of the hotel are a bit weird and takes some getting used to if you are coming around for a conference, but the spaces themselves are great. I'd made some more handicap accessible updates around a few areas, but otherwise wonderful rate for what you get at this location. read more

Although the front desk team is outstanding and promptly got me into a new room, I find it foul that I was initially put into a room with a super moldy shower vent and dried urine all over the toilet. Seems like the housekeeping team lacks accountability. Hotel itself is very outdated. I won't be staying here the next time I'm traveling for work. read more

This is, hands-down, the worst DoubleTree hotel I've ever been to. Frankly, it's the worst Hilton property of ANY type I've ever been to. The only good thing about this hotel is the extremely nice staff that helps mitigate the unpleasantness of the property itself. The elevator - it's the smallest elevator I've ever seen at a hotel. 6 people capacity, but only 3 or 4 with luggage. And slow. And squeaky lol. The first thing we noticed when we got to the 3rd floor on the way to our room was the distinct, thick mildew smell. It smells like the carpet and walls are damp, even though they're not. But when we got into our actual room, I swear it smelled like a stagnant Mississippi swamp. The AC was running just fine, but our room stinks. (I found out later that some of our friends who checked in here had to ask for another room because their room smelled so bad.) The rooms themselves are typical hotel decor, but the bathrooms are TINY and there isn't any convenient place to hang a hand towel at the sink. You have to lay the hand towel on the sink itself or hang it on the towel rack across from the sink, requiring you to turn around behind you with your wet hands to dry them, dripping water onto the bathroom tiles. Why not have a hook on the wall next to the sink?? Makes no sense. The mattress is very hard, but some people like them super firm, so that's subjective thing. Personally, I could hardly move in the mornings because I was so stiff and sore from the hard mattress. Lastly, the pool doesn't even open until 10 AM!! On a Saturday! This hotel has a MASSIVE pool - very nice. Large enough to swim laps in. HOWEVER, if you'd like to get your morning swim in before your work or conference or whatever, no dice. And it's not just a posted policy that it's closed until 10 AM, they have that sucker locked with a padlock! I've literally never seen that before lol. This is simply a ridiculous policy and should be immediately changed to AT LEAST 8 AM. Oh, and I almost forgot - there's a sign in the lobby that says "No swimsuits in the Lobby"... but you can't access the pool without going through the lobby. Unbelievable. Again, the staff was super friendly and I have no complaints there. They get the extra star to make this a 2-star review. But if I were the CEO of Hilton or of the DoubleTree division, I would be ashamed to have this property carry my brand. read more

Comfortable, clean, nice size rooms, pleasant place to stay in Annapolis. Rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff members are friendly and helpful.

First impression was that I was excited that they have huge luggage carts to wheel out and get your luggage. And excited our room was on the ground floor. When I came inside and found the door to the hallway. I looked through the tiny door window and saw stairs. STAIRS!!! The cart was of no use. We asked if there was an alternative. They said they have rooms in the basement under the tower. I was picturing a castle dungeon in my head. And the lady didn't know if it had windows. I looked at the tiny elevator and wondered how this big cart could fit. We then decided to stick with our room and lugged the luggage up the stairs to our ground floor room. Then there was the room. The room is dirty, the HVAC fan is loud, the sink doesn't drank right after you flush the toilet and then it gurgles as it drains slowly. The door security latch looks as though someone tried to bust it open because it's scuffed up. The closet door is scuffed up. We had our baby with us and only let him crawl on the bed. Laying on the bed at first impression was feeling a hard stiff surface. Not comfy after a long drive. The pillows are flat and you only get 4. Why is there a sheet on top of the comforter? Well we removed that along with the comforter that didn't look clean. No other blankets in the room. Our baby kept us warm. Also, why is the microwave oven in the hallway and shared with everyone else? How often is that cleaned? I have no interest in a communal microwave post COVID. There is dust (other people's dead skin cells) all along the top of the bed headboard. The bathroom has stains on the wall, the ceiling has stains and the floor has stains. Perks: A security guy showed up and helped bring in 2 of our suitcases up the stairs to our room, the tv is huge and the refrigerator in the room works. Those are the only perks. read more

This hotel is quite big, and at first, a little confusing. We had a digital key in the app and were going to go straight to our room but discovered that there was more than one wing of the hotel after we got on the wrong elevator. The staff gladly pointed us in the way of the other elevators and we walked what seemed like a quarter mile to the right elevators. Upon arrival to the room it was clean and spacious. It is a pretty typical hotel room- nothing in here that would make me write about it in my journal. The chair and ottoman are surprisingly comfortable and there's plenty of counter/desk space everywhere. The bathroom is FAR from instagrammable, however. The left side of the toilet is hugging the sink area like it would otherwise have separation anxiety. The lack of lighting in the shower area seems intentional as there is very little that is aesthetically pleasing about it. Overall... It's a pretty typical hotel. Don't expect much and it'll do the job very well. If the bathroom was a little different I would give this place 5 stars. read more

Pros: checkin easy, lots of parking, comfy beds, good service, good tv, lovely pool! Cons were the loud traffic (freeway) that we heard through the window and while swimming in the pool you could barely hear each other talk. The food was excellent, Port of Call made an amazing crab dip and accommodated our gluten free needs with veggie sticks. Perfect! read more

We have stayed in this Doubletree numerous times for USNA reunions and have found it adequate. Our wedding reception was here 49 years ago when it was a Holiday Inn. Our most recent stay for a 50th reunion was disappointing. The staff was wonderful - friendly and hardworking. Public areas of the hotel are fine - clean and attractive but a mite dated. The rooms need renovation in the worst way. I put my hand on the grab bar in the tub and the bar pulled out of the wall. Fortunately I was able to catch myself. At 70, I do not need to take a spill in a hotel bath tub. The toilet seat became unanchored and slid around the toilet. Again, an accident waiting to happen. The window sill was stained with rust and part of the popcorn ceiling was peeling off. We ate breakfast in the Ports of Call restaurant twice. My husband had the buffet both times. I had the buffet once, and ordered the Ports of Call Benedict from the menu the second time. The buffet was okay, nothing special. The POC Benedict was good but the hash browns served with it were more like potato straws; there was no way to eat them with a fork. My husband reported that the buffet hash browns were overly crispy also. After the Navy football game, our group of 30+ people reserved a private room in the restaurant for dinner. We were surprised to be handed an extremely abbreviated menu listing only about half a dozen selections. If you didn't want a hamburger or wings, you were out of luck. One waiter struggled to serve all of us. He tried hard but several orders were incorrect -- no cheese on the cheeseburger, spicy wings vs. mild and the requested dipping sauce never arrived. The farewell breakfast this morning was standard fare: scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage links and patties, excellent fruit, an assortment of muffins and pastries, and those overly crispy hash browns that were near impossible to eat with a fork. The cheese pastry I ate had a peculiar coffee flavor to the cheese unlike any I've had before. We are long time Hilton Honors members and stay at this Doubletree for that reason. I'm not sure we will do so in the future and will encourage the reunion committee to look for alternatives if this hotel is not renovated. read more

Stayed here twice for a work party. Both stays were mediocre at best. The people at the front desk are the best part of the stay. Super friendly and helpful. The beds are so uncomfortable and the pillows are dead. Bring your own pillow! Woke up to a sore head and neck. The bathroom is amazingly awful. Check out the picture of the setup of the toilet. Who designed this layout, Picasso? The strengths of the stay are the hotel staff and huge tv in room. The weaknesses are the neck crushing bed and Picasso bathroom. read more

I stayed here last night as we didn't want to drive home in the rainy dark. It's always great to have the delicious cookie upon arrival. Our room was clean and comfortable. We decided to try out the restaurant and we chose the buffet breakfast. For $15 per person, we had cooked to order eggs, bacon, sausage, breakfast potatoes, steamed shrimp and orange juice. The staff was very pleasant. I would stay here again. read more
