You are cordially invited to be our guest at The Annapolis Inn, an historic landmark townhouse optimally located in the heart of the Historic District of Annapolis. The Annapolis Inn is nestled among the Naval Academy, St. John's College, the City
Harbour and the State Capital, quietly surrounded by museums and many fine examples of the architectural diversity in our city and nation's history. Convenient and close to the excitement of sailing
activities, walking and garden tours, civic and cultural events, and restaurants and shops, the Inn remains a haven from the hustle and bustle of downtown activity.

Built circa
1770, The Annapolis Inn is a classic example of Georgian and Greek Revival architecture. Alternating dark walnut and
pine planked floors, rare in Annapolis, grace our spacious entrance foyer. The living room and dining room, stately salons of aristocratic status, are still crowned with their original ornate gilded rosette
moldings
and overshadow you with the
feeling of opulence they were meant
to bestow. The large chandeliers of imported Austrian crystal complement their elegance.
Below them the marble fireplaces warm your spirits; the tapestries, paintings, sculptures and antique
furnishings enthrall you and the Oriental rugs soften your mood.

Combined, these salons create a relaxing
ambiance
of luxury and comfort, creating the perfect setting for reading, taking afternoon tea or coffee or conversing with friends. In the morning, the warmth of the
fireplaces reaches out to you as
you linger over a freshly prepared breakfast in the dining room. Your breakfast is enhanced by the plush comfort and
allure of our antique
furnishings, masterpieces of European artisans, which surround and envelop you in a lifestyle once available to only a privileged few. Your room has also been appointed to anticipate your comfort, lifestyle and privacy, creating an atmosphere of pampering elegance and spaciousness.
Outside, an enclosed yard with shade trees, a beautiful garden, patio and Koi pond are also yours to enjoy, offering the peace and quiet found only in a private residence and providing the perfect retreat for private moments. Majestic is the feeling from our third floor sundeck with views of the State Capital and Naval Academy Chapel dome.

tranquility of a bubbling fountain, The Annapolis Inn is for you.
