We recently stayed at the Blue Door in October, 2009. We were thrilled with our accomodations. The Inn was immaculate and our room was just charming. The innkeepers are very caring and make you feel very comfortable (especially with all the goodies they leave in your room). I would not pause for an instant to return for a second visit.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautifull place. The room was spacious, tidy and well designed. Breakfast was served in a very personal environment, the omelette was delicious! The only room for improvment is that breakfast time is too long, we enjoyed it because we did not hace to hurry and had time to wait, but if time is limited, then breakfast takte too long. All in all, we had a great time and recommend this great place without any limitation! Fair pricing was the icing on the cake.

My sister-in-law and i stayed at the Blue Door for a week. It was a wonderful experience to meet such warm & welcoming hosts. The service was absolutely delightful, the beds & pillows were to die for after our journey from Australia. The breakfasts were awesome and Roger makes a wicked cappucino!!!! to finish off with. No need for lunch. The turndown service & little goodies of a night just topped off a busy day sightseeing. The knowledge that both Cecilia & Roger have when we enquired about something is just unbelievable. They were pleased to help us in any way that they could, to help us enjoy our stay. An awesome & delightful experience. Well done and thank-you.

We selected the Blue Door Inn based on the previous reviews on this website and were not disappointed with our first visit to a B&B. Roger & Cecilia were wonderful hosts and very concientious of their guests and their needs. The breakfasts were wonderful and cooked with care. The presentation of the food was excellent! The room service was very nice and gave you options of green service along with the traditional changing of all linens every day. We stayed for a week exploring Baltimore with the help of our hosts guidance, we were directed to a wonderful experiences. After our day excursions, we returned to a turned down bed and a tray of sweets to compliment the day along with a wonderful soak in the claw foot bathtub that was in our room along with the huge robes that we never did use but it was nice they were there. Roger and Cecilia provide use of a small refidgerator stocked with complimentory sodas and water along with a nice selection of books to borrow in their library that also had a fax machine. The library also hosted a series of brochures for sights and restaurants along with a book in the main dining room you can browse through that had restaurant menus, museum options.... Baltimore is a rich city to visit with all of the history and we were not disappointed with our adventures and our wonderful experience at the Blue Door Inn!

We had a lovely few nights in this well-organized B&B. Roger offered good breakfasts with flexibility re: time, tips about amenities/dining in the area and plans for walking safely to the Conference Centre etc. The room was spacious, very clean towels/ linens, with pleasing decor and room to relax. A wonderful room to come back to following long days at a conference. One night we enjoyed food from Health food Grocery store and wine picked up on the way home, and after putting on our terry dressing gowns, was a great way to end the day. Staying there enhanced our experience of Baltimore beyond what would of been our experience if we would have stayed at the "conference" hotels. With the B& B added benefit of breakfast financially we spent less than if we would have booked the best "conference rate" that was offered. We would definitely return.

My husband and I got away from Alexandria and the hustle of tax season to celebrate his birthday to Baltimore. We just loved out Blue Door stay. And we stay at a lot of B&B's both domestic and international. The innkeepers really know what the B&B experience is all about: clean rooms, friendly hosts, walking distance to town/city, and that deck ... just loved sitting there!

Roger and Cecilia are wonderful hosts, the rooms are super and the "continental" breakfast goes way beyond expectations. We won't have to look for a place to stay in Baltimore again as long as they have room for us!

Michelle, the assistant innkeeper, pampered us the whole time with a great breakfast, fabulous bedtime snacks and great recommendations for sites to see. The location is just a few miles from downtown Baltimore and fun sites. We hated to leave!!

My husband and I were in the area for Barack Obama's Inauguration and honestly didn't put a lot of thought into where we were staying, as the inauguration was our main concern. We could NOT have been more pleased with the Blue Door. The service we received was fantastic and the friendliness and warm-hearted nature of the staff was such a welcomed surprise. The evening we arrived, after finding out why we were in town, the inn sitter (the inn keepers were on vacation) brought us the local paper with articles about the inauguration.The room itself was gorgeous and very, very clean. The food was great and the inn sitter even made us a brown bag breakfast to take with us because we were leaving at 1:30 am to head into DC for the inauguration. The price could not be beat as well. VERY reasonable for the beautiful room, private bathroom and the amazing service that we received. I cannot say enough about our wonderful experience at the Blue Door. Truly the icing on top of the cake for a very memorable trip.

This B&B is one of the finest we have ever enjoyed! Just steps from Baltimore's eclectic neighborhoods, the location allows for a mid-day return from sightseeing and shopping to rejuvinate and indulge, ready to hit the city for an evening of dining and music - or whatever your fancy may be. Bright, airy, immaculate rooms are appointed with sumptuous linens, ultra-comfortable beds and high end toiletries. No wall mounted hair dryers here! Don't pass up a soak in the tub, a view from your private deck or any of the delectable home made treats at turn down. Delicious breakfasts are served with endearing conversation from Roger and Cecelia who are on the mark with dining and entertainment suggestions, as well as historical recaps about this exciting city. You will definitely depart with wonderful memories feeling quite spoiled! Liz & Tony Nutley NJ

I stayed at the Blue Door for a whole week while my sister was at Johns Hopkins. The location is very convenient to the hospital; I was able to walk back & forth every day, saving money on cabs. And after a tiring day at the hospital, it was so comforting to be able to relax in my room. The room was elegantly decorated and very comfortable, with a great bed and giant bathtub for a good soak before bedtime. Plus there are the night time snacks that the hosts, Roger and Cecilia, bring every evening. The breakfast part of the "bed & breakfast" was really wonderful too - great egg dishes, and the best scones and breads. And Roger and Cecilia couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. I really cannot recommend this place enough.

Look no further! Skip the hotel in the Harbor, Fells Point or other! Stay here! The rooms and the service in this wonderful B & B could be the only reason to visit Baltimore. Roger and Cecelia have outdone themselves in furnishing each room with all the things you wish for when staying in a hotel. You want a full length mirror--you got it! A wonderful bathroom--you got it! Fabulous towels--you got em! A beautiful, comfortable bed with sumptuous linens--you got it! (Triple sheeted bed--I love it!) A giant cozy bathrobe--you got it! Turndown service with a yummy bedtime snack--you got it! Flat-screen direct TV--you got it! Wonderful furniture--you got it! Great lighting--you got it! A library--you got it! And I can't begin to even explain how delicious the morning feast is! The hospitality Roger and Cecelia offer as you enter this haven is amazing. It is worth a round trip ticket just to retreat for the weekend. You won't be disappointed at 2023 E. Baltimore! And it is close to everything you will want to do.....if you wander out. Enjoy!!! Thank you Roger and Cecelia!

We stayed 2 nights in the Hampstead room at the Blue Door on Baltimore. The room was just as it looked on the website, spacious, clean, and comfortable. Loved the exposed brick in the room. We came back a little early in the evening just to relax and enjoy the comforts of our room as well as the delicious treats left each night on our bed. The breakfasts are a perfect start to the day from the coffee, to the tasty breads, and delicious main courses. Roger and Cecelia are very warm and friendly and are a great source of information to enhance your stay in Baltimore. My review would not complete without mentioning their cat Megan. She is very friendly and sweet and you have to pet her to see how soft her pelt coat is.

Beautiful facility owned and superbly kept up by a wonderful and knowledgeable couple, Roger and Cecelia, attentive to all your needs. The property is located in the Butchers Hill neighborhood of Baltimore, a 20 mn stroll away from Fells Point, a 30 mn walk from the downtown Inner Harbor region and a very convenient 10 mn walk to the world renown Johns Hopkins Medical Campus. I highly recommend it, among other people, to healthcare professionals who are visiting Baltimore specifically for a visit of the Johns Hopkins medical campus. The rooms are spacious, super clean and very comfortably and beautifully furnished, including free wireless internet and a flat screen TV; some of the rooms communicate with others to offer additional bedding for larger groups. A delicious continental breakfast is served every morning from 7-10 am and at least one of the owners is onsite at all time to assist you with any question that you may have about your visit to Baltimore and/or with your stay. Very quickly, you realize that you are in the presence of sophisticated and extremely kind people that you would be proud to count among your own friends. This will definitely be my lodging destination the next time I visit Baltimore with my family.

I spent two nights in Sept. 2008. Great B&B - modern amenities, spacious room with a balcony, and large bathroom. Spotless and well-appointed. Close to Fells Point where there are lots of eating and shopping options. Nicest place I've stayed in Baltimore so far (after visiting 5 times and 5 different hotels and B^Bs).

This place should be called the Blue Sanctuary. This little hidden jewel is a great place for a inner city retreat. I loved the whole feel. From the clean and luscious room and bath, to the friendly service, to the cozy atmosphere. Not to mention the unbelievable breakfast.Oh my gosh, these guys are great hosts and this place is fantastic. You will not regret a night or week spent here. This was the best experience that I have stumbled upon in a very long time. And it is a nice walk away from an energetic Baltimore harbor.

Our trip was a last minute getaway. We stayed in the Washburn Room, a very large, well appointed room with a relaxing clawfoot tub in the bathroom. We are relocating to Baltimore. The innkeepers were friendly, their recommendations for dinners, neighborhoods and general Baltimore knowledge were spot-on. Roger's food is fabulous, we didn't really eat lunch either day! We enjoyed many conversations with Roger and Cecilia and expect to stay in touch as we settle into the City. We've stayed at numerous bed and breakfasts and this one is tops. We highly recommend Blue Door on Baltimore!

My wife and I celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary in part my staying with Roger and Cecelia at the Blue Door. The short drive from our house was worth the trip. The hosts are friendly, gracious, and demonstrative of their capability to meet the needs of their guests. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Our king room had more than enough space left over for the table to be installed for our in-room massage. Everything is new and sparkling. Complimentary soft drinks and sweets delivered during the turn-down service were pleasant touches. The simple, urban decor of the rooms was a great change of pace over the more common congested Victorian designs I have seen over the years. Roger and Cecelia are naturals. We will be seeing them again.
