Detailed Reviews
Historic building, convenient location for major cultural sites; the hotel is fairly quiet but needs to maintain the furniture and bathroom, replace noisy AC wall unit. Rooms are not serviced during the 4 night stay. Includes breakfast fruits, juices, tea/coffee, and bread products as self-service in the kitchen area.

Clean, quiet, close to a lot of Baltimore stuff. Good place to stay for O's games. The metro is a straight shot to Camden Yard or Uber. Parking seems okay if you're early but there are pay parking lots close by if needed. Room is modern. Good water pressure.

Beautifully restored historic hotel. Clean room and bath. Comfortable bed. The staff are friendly and helpful. Skip the breakfast, it's not so good, but the coffee machine in the lobby has some nice options. Easy access to the Harbor by nearby bus if you're not interested in searching for downtown parking. Parking in front of the hotel is limited, so we chose the Mt. Vernon lot. It's very close. All in all we would stay here again.

The coded entry system was not operational on the evening of our visit on September 9. Since they use electronic codes and an app to manage the property, there was no one on site to help. We called the virtual front desk through the app. Although they tried to help, after 30 minutes we still could not access our room (we got into the building thanks to a guest who was canceling their reservation because of the problems). While we waited on hold a third guest was cancelling their remaining night for the same reason. JURNY gave us our money back because we could not stay there and we had to find another option for the evening. They said the lock system was experiencing issues due to a storm the night before.
On the plus side, the hotel is gorgeous, well maintained, historic, and in a nice location. Had we actually been able to stay there this review would likely be very different.
If Jurny changes to ensure someone is onsite in case of issues (storms are not uncommon in Baltimore, and this was a severe thunderstorm, not anything worse) I would say it would be with the risk.

I rarely post bad reviews of hotels but we were not impressed. Parking is very limited, they need more counter space in the bathroom, we had no extra toilet paper and the girl at the front desk seemed annoyed when I asked for some, it's not a breakfast, it's a few store bought pastries and warm juice. At night the door slammed outside of our room from the stair entrance LOUDLY and woke me up constantly. The shower door wouldn't close. The ac wasn't the best. We stayed four nights and asked for a room refresh on day three when we went out and about. I was returned to the hotel early afternoon and they forgot. They must have seen us come in and realized they forgot and the man at the front desk came in to empty the garbage while we were laying in bed=awkward. The only positive was Terence at the front desk. Enjoyed chatting with him and he's very personable. The area is not the best despite what they might tell you. We won't be back.

My husband and I wanted to spend a couple nights in Baltimore and booked Hotel Brexton. We arrived to a scalding hot lobby and an alarm loudly sounding in the lobby with no one there to turn it off. When we arrived to our room, it wasn’t locked. The room was dirty, with urine stains going down the toilet, and crumbs near the bed. We tried to leave for dinner, but the door still wouldn’t lock. We emailed customer service for Jurny because their customer service number wouldn’t connect. They gave us a complicated “how to lock the door” hack. It didn’t work about 20 minutes of trying. Not wanting to leave the room unlocked, my husband went to find food while I tried to get in touch with a human. I downloaded Jurny’s app. It said the reservation was found but wouldn’t let me access anything. At this point, I realized the sink was plugged and I spent time trying to figure out how to unplug it to no avail. I’m used to self-checkins and technology integrated systems, but this has been the most inconvenient, terrible experience because no humans work on this property and it is managed by some outside management company in L.A. to be “convenient.” Convenience here equals cost-cutting and terrible service for the customer.

Front door code doesn’t work—other guests had to let us in (lucky but sketchy). Room stinks of cigarettes. No one answers the phone—you just get “we’re re-thinking all aspects of your stay…from check in to check out…never be in hold again” = “no one works here, our call center in wherever never answers, good luck if there’s a fire because you’re on your own.” An entirely absent customer service experience.

We, and another couple that we were traveling with, had reservations to stay at the Hotel Brexton in Baltimore. We had made these reservations over 2 months ago because of the Hotel's proximity to the Modell Center of the Performing Arts. Upon arrival, we were told the present occupants of the room were staying longer than expected, so basically, we had no rooms....The staff offered to put us up at their "Sister" hotel after lunch if the rooms we had booked were still not available. Upon returning later in the day, not only did the Hotel Brexton not have any room, but also, their "sister" hotel. They were able to find rooms for us about 20 minutes away.
What was particularly insulting was the staff was unapologetic and lied regarding our reservations. This is not a place we could, in all honesty, recommend. We have travelled for many years and have never experienced such unprofessional behavior.

Response from Bob G, General Manager at Hotel Brexton
Responded Aug 26, 2015
Hello, I am Bob, the GM for Hotel Brexton since the end of April 2015 and I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize for your experience with an overbooking that you described in your April 2014 posting to tripadvisor. Hotels, like airlines, often do have overbooking problems caused for a variety of reasons; and that is seldom if ever good news for those caught in the middle. But more importantly, your frustration regarding the way you felt that you were treated is a bigger problem that deserves an apology. I'll be honest with you, I saw this posting shortly after taking the position as GM and opted to refrain from responding until I was able to observe our practices, policies and customer service standards first hand. I will not make excuses for what occurred in April of 2014. But can assure you that as far as I am able to see, what you experienced at that time is not what is typical of Hotel Brexton now and hopefully was an isolated issue with an employee or circumstance at that time. Again, that is not great news for your visit to Baltimore at that time. But I encourage you to give us another opportunity to show you what now I am able to state as GM is our standard. Please feel free to contact me personally at one of the numbers below to discuss a possible future stay with us. And again, I am sorry that no one provided an appropriate apology to you before now. Sincerely, Bob HOTEL BREXTON "the place to stay when you choose to be out and about in Baltimore" Robert (Bob) Glock, General Manager 868 PARK AVE., BALTIMORE, MD 21201 443-677-0245 (c) / 443-478-2100 (p) / 443-478-2199 (f) Mount Vernon is both a Designated National Landmark Historic District and a Baltimore Cultural District

My husband and I looked forward to spending our anniversary at this historic hotel and booked an accessible room. At check-in Cameron informed us the room, LL1, was one of the better rooms. Room was fine, though partially below ground, but TV did not work -- lower third of screen jumped causing instant nausea. I went immediately back to desk to report tv issue and was told by asst manager that she was aware there was a problem with the TV as she had looked at it yesterday but hotel was fully booked, she could not change our room and could not replace our tv, but that we could watch the kitchen tv down the hall. This was not acceptable so we requested that our card be credited and we checked out. Beleaguered desk person informed us he could not issue credit without contacting hotel manager and this would have to be done via email as the manager was not otherwise contactable. My husband called our credit card company ro inform them we would be contesting this charge and I myself emailed hotel manager. We left the Brexton and went to another hotel. As of now we have received no response from hotel management.

Yes, do walk to the Lyric; and yes it is a safe walk - even at night. Did this several times during each season of the year. PS you're also within walking distance of the Baltimore Symphony's Meyerhoff Hall plus some nice restaurants - Italian to Ethiopean plus Vegan too. All an easy and safe walk. Enjoy!
There is wheelchair accessible; that is probably what you saw.
Hello! We have six (6) spaces in the front of the building that are free on a first come, first serve basis. And we have an additional 4-6 spaces in our courtyard that are available by reservation for $25 per night.

Hello and thank you for asking. We are about seven (7) minutes by car or uber, and accessible via the Charm City Circulator, a free bus service provided by Baltimore City.
We are centrally located about three blocks south of Penn Station, eight blocks north of the Arena, 10 blocks north of the Inner Harbor and National Aquarium, 3.4 miles (less than 15 minutes) from the Baltimore Zoo and probably the closest Baltimore hotel to the Zoo, and about 1.4 miles to Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
