Day 1: Arrival & explore Fells Point
Friday
Check-in is at 3 pm, but be sure to arrive in the early afternoon to maximize this day in Baltimore. Drop your bags at the hotel and venture out to Fells Point, on foot, for lunch. Fells Point is a short walk from the hotel and not to be missed. Have lunch at Thames Street Oyster House, where you can enjoy a delicious seafood lunch and a classic Baltimore Orange Crush. After lunch, roam the historic cobble-stone streets, visiting the local boutiques and bars. Once your feet are ready for a break, head back to the Four Seasons for the evening.
Get checked in to your room and get ready for the evening. For dinner, you can go upstairs to The Bygone, a fancy restaurant and bar on the roof. You can also go downstairs to Loch Bar, a relaxed restaurant that serves seafood in the indoors and outdoors (try the crab cakes).
Day 2: A day by the water
Saturday
Rise and shine! Head to the main amenity floor for a work-out at the gym or steam and massage at the spa. Plan to spend the day at the pool (which opens at 10 am most days). The pool area is two floors of different seating and water options for various ages and experiences. Take a dip in the pool and take in the sweeping skyline views of Baltimore. When you get hungry, you can have lunch ordered straight to your lounge chair from the bar & grill on site.
For the evening, book a catamaran charter directly through the hotel. This charter will take you along Baltimore’s waterways to get an in-depth view of the area. You can bring drinks and snacks onboard, which makes this an awesome pre-dinner experience. For dinner, dine at either Maximon, a chic Mexican restaurant, OR Azumi, a trendy Japanese restaurant. Both dinner venues are right on property and just steps from the dock area.
Day 3: Final meals & goodbye
Sunday
Before you check-out, order breakfast in the room and try the blueberry pancakes. If you want to get lunch on your way out of the city, visit the Canton area and grab a table at Mama’s On The Half Shell. This is a local favorite that serves fantastic crab dishes and some of the best Orange Crushes in Baltimore!

For those traveling with family, The Four Seasons staff will make this as easy as possible for you. The rooms will be prepared with cribs, sheets, diapers, diaper pails, bath mats and kid-friendly toiletries. Also, when booking the room type, definitely consider one of the suites. These rooms have a full bedroom and living space separated by a door - some rooms also have a balcony off the bedroom. With these extra, separate spaces, parents can enjoy some time together once the kids have gone down for sleep.
