Ulysses is a hotel in Mt Vernon, Baltimore with strong drinks and soft beds. Living inside the storied nine-story Latrobe Building on East Read Street, once home to seven-time Baltimore mayor Ferdinand Latrobe, and many lonely bachelors after that, Ulysses is an ever-evolving monument to Baltimores iconic contradictions and unhinged visions. 116 rooms, four auspicious suites, clandestine drinking parlors, and an all-day bistro, Ulysses is a place for transportive gathering, for filth and reverie the high priest of the fever dream. Guestrooms at Ulysses are vessels for transportive and sanctified experiences. Rich in contradiction and teeming with visual myth and rhythm, each room is an idiosyncratic destination all its own, with references culled from Art Deco movie palaces, the filth of John Waters, The Imperial New Delhi, defunct ancient languages, and the color-blocked patterns one sees from a moving train. Each room offers inspired amenities, decadent minibar offerings, a proprietary fragrance, custom bath products, and color televisions. Beds are outfitted with handmade quilts inspired by the iconic Baltimore Album Quilts, and emblazoned with invented languages. (We think this makes for better dreaming.)
