Baltimore hotel wins top honors from Tripadvisor
The Ivy Hotel in Mt. Vernon made two lists in this year's Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice Best of the Best awards. The outlet's highest honor recognizes the hotels, destinations, restaurants and more in the top 1% of Tripadvisor listings. The Ivy Hotel earned the No. 5 spot for U.S. luxury hotels and ranked No. 16 among U.S. boutique stays. The five-star hotel at 205 E. Biddle St. is no stranger to awards. The Ivy received the Michelin "keys" distinction in 2024 and was ranked the No. 3 luxury hotel in the U.S. by Tripadvisor in 2024. For those who prefer beaches to the streets of Mt. Vernon, the awards have something for you, too: Ocean City was named the No. 25 beach in the country.
