Bottom Line
Located a 30-minute drive northeast of Downtown Baltimore in the suburb of White Marsh, this Hilton Garden Inn is moderately stylish and reasonably priced. Highlights include an indoor pool, free local shuttle, 24-hour fitness center, and an on-site restaurant and bar. The immediate area has a strip-mall feel, but it’s close to shops, corporate offices, and I-95. Those looking for a slightly cheaper option should consider Hampton Inn Baltimore / White Marsh, right next door, or the nearby Fairfield Hotel.

Scene
A moderately stylish chain hotel outside of Baltimore
Opened in 2000, this Hilton Garden Inn doesn’t have much of a “wow” factor, but it has all the basics for a comfortable -- albeit generic -- hotel stay. The most stylish part of the property is the lobby and adjacent restaurant, which are airy and pleasant, with high ceilings, potted plants, a gas fireplace, and contemporary furniture in pastel shades of green and orange. The rooms are unmemorable but there’s little to offend; they are clean, spacious, and all the standard amenities are there.
This hotel is on the large-side for a Hilton Garden Inn. It features a decent-size indoor pool, fitness center, business center, small convenience store, and 6,000 square feet of meeting space (weddings and business events are frequently hosted in a 400-person ballroom).
The hotel is a bit too far outside Baltimore to appeal to city-goers, but a number of corporate offices are nearby, so business travelers are common here.
Location
A 30-minute drive from Baltimore in a suburban strip-mall neighborhood
Situated right off I-95, this suburban Hilton Garden Inn is sandwiched between a shopping mall, a strip mall, an IKEA, and a movie theater. The concrete-filled White Marsh neighborhood is less than picturesque, but there are plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance. Corporate offices, such as Comcast and MedStar, are also less than five minutes away.
- 15-minute drive from Martin State Airport
- 20-minute drive from Oriole Park at Camden Yards
- 25-minute drive from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor
- 26-minute drive from Baltimore Airport (BWI)
Rooms
Generic rooms with mini-fridges, microwaves, and Keurig coffeemakers
Last renovated in 2008, these rooms feature run-of-the-mill decor in shades of beige, dark red, and pea green. Each is furnished with white bedding, simple wooden furniture, framed photos of foliage, and busy red carpeting. Rooms are fairly spacious and come with one king or two double beds, a flat-screen TV, mini-fridge, microwave, Keurig coffeemaker, and free Wi-Fi. Suites sleeping up to six guests are available and have sofa beds, separate sitting areas, and two TVs. Both smoking and non-smoking rooms are available.
Features
This hotel has all the necessities -- pool, gym, restaurant, store, and business center.
This Hilton Garden Inn has a solid range of amenities. The first floor is home to a modest 24-hour fitness center (with free weights, medicine balls, and only three cardio machines), a heated indoor pool and whirlpool, a 24-hour business center, guest laundry room, and a 24-hour convenience store with microwaveable dinners, wine, beer, and snacks. The lobby area also houses the Garden Grille & Bar, which is open for breakfast (buffet and limited a la carte options) and dinner. Other perks include free parking, room service (limited hours), a free shuttle that runs within a five-mile radius (no late-night service), and free passes to Bally Total Fitness, located next door.
