Revival Hotel Room Review
Each room is curated to give you artful and historic symbolism for Baltimore. From the quilted map of the DMV area to the locally sourced toilet tissue in the bathroom, you are in a place that you feel like you belong.
This hotel offers classical rooms with a vibrant experience and inspiration at every turn. The rooms have distinctive art touches that tie in the charm of Baltimore, highlight local business, and have classical furniture while giving you a warm hug of nostalgia for the things that have brought us comfort growing up.
I found myself pouring myself a cup of chamomile tea, snuggling up in the Baltimore quilt laid across the bed, reading some classic comic books on display on the desk in the room.

This was probably the best part for me! The Dashery Cafe is such a cute and artful cafe. It had everything my heart yearned for — avocado toast with pickled onions and locally sourced coffee and teas for breakfast; and signature salads and sandwiches for lunch.
I had the maple pecan latte and it took me directly to my happy place! It was my first time visiting, but it won’t be my last.

What is a momcation?
Momcation Checklist
Similar to a staycation, a momcation is a getaway to recharge and refresh from the day-to-day for moms.
This is the time for moms to put theirselves first without being drowned out by the needs and desires of loved ones. A momcation can be a trip with friends or it can be a solo trip.

How to choose the perfect momcation?
When choosing a momcation there is a lot to take into consideration. For me the hotel or airbnb should serve as an anchor. If you are doing a solo trip, you want to make sure the place you choose has all the amenities you want to enjoy.
And for me, the Hotel Revival in Baltimore checked all of my boxes.
I wanted something local, soulful, artful and inspiring; and it didn’t let me down!
For the first time, in a long time, I was able to wake up to my own beat. Grab some tea, mediate with the sunrise, and enjoy
