Top Rockdale Hotel Reviews

Sonesta ES Suites Baltimore BWI Airport

8/10 Good

"I’ve stayed at this hotel 3 times and each time I’m more impressed with the place, only complaint is the air is tricky sometimes but overall great experience ✨"

The Royal Sonesta Harbor Court Baltimore

8/10 Good

"The mattress needs to be changed. The flickering light on the ceiling is annoying. The walls are very thin; you can hear your neighbors' conversations. Water should be included in the room. Why isn't there a bathroom in the lobby? It's horrible that you have to go up to the 2nd floor."

Wingate by Wyndham Baltimore BWI Airport

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed my stay at your establishment. The only issues I had was the room that I stayed didn't have a living room set up. It was basically an open space. The king size bed was very comfortable. The elevator seemed to have an issue with opening when it got to our floor and once while returning to the room, it stopped on the 2nd floor, brought them back to the 1st floor, then took us up to the 5th floor. I'm guessing the other elevators were out of order. I enjoyed the stay for the most part. Keep up the good work."

Pier 5 Hotel Baltimore

8/10 Good

"Clean place which to me is important. This is an older hotel. There was alot of noise at night from people in the hallway and doors slamming. We had what sounded like a large group coming back to their rooms around 3am making so much noise. Doors are thin so you heard everything. This isn't the hotels fault but it was annoying. I wish the hotel had a little coffee shop. I will say it was conveniently located near alot of stuff. We walked mostly everywhere. I'd stay here again for the price!"
