Local Dining Guide

*Minority-owned business

The list below is a quick-reference of various eating options near the hotel. For reference, the hotel is on Kingshighway Blvd and Maryland Plaza. A quick 2-block walk east will find you at the 200 block of N Euclid Ave, the heart of dining in the Central West End (CWE). We encourage you to try a new dining adventure while in the CWE! Be sure to take some time to check out a local staple business, Left Bank Books, to feed your mind, too!
