Homewood Suites Bel Air

“OK, conveniently located, nothing special, not bad”

Conveniently located very near I-95 about half an hour above Baltimore, near ordinary groceries, restaurant, and gas. Astonishingly slow (though large) elevators. Check-in was a mixed bag--desk clerk: "I noticed when I came in this afternoon that your rooms were far apart from one another." So why … more

Conveniently located very near I-95 about half an hour above Baltimore, near ordinary groceries, restaurant, and gas. Astonishingly slow (though large) elevators. Check-in was a mixed bag--desk clerk: "I noticed when I came in this afternoon that your rooms were far apart from one another." So why not change them, when there were plenty of rooms available? He did change them while I stood there, but that was not time well spent late at night. The rooms were worn and thus a little shabby, but fine and comfortable enough.

“Very decent nice place to stay right off 95 on our drive South.”

We were starting our drive south on 95 and the Homewood was our first stop. Parking was easy and safe. The rooms are decent, but a door for the bathroom sink area would be nice. Shower was great - nice pressure. WI-FI was free and good. The room had a separate living area with full kitchen wi… more

We were starting our drive south on 95 and the Homewood was our first stop. Parking was easy and safe. The rooms are decent, but a door for the bathroom sink area would be nice. Shower was great - nice pressure. WI-FI was free and good. The room had a separate living area with full kitchen with table, microwave, and fridge. My two negatives are very small televisions (please replace them) and the breakfast choices were slim (no breakfast meats - only pre made omelets). Overall, this place is solid and safe and the facilities are nice. I recommend and would stay again.

“Great staff and room, appalling breakfast”

Great staff, room excellent and excellent Wi-fi. But the breakfast was truly terrible. That would have been ok if the room had been a low price, but this was quite expensive. There wasn't any healthy option, no decent coffee. I travel the world, and this was probably the worst breakfast I've ever h… more

Great staff, room excellent and excellent Wi-fi. But the breakfast was truly terrible. That would have been ok if the room had been a low price, but this was quite expensive. There wasn't any healthy option, no decent coffee. I travel the world, and this was probably the worst breakfast I've ever had. In the end, I paid for breakfast next door. Plenty of parking. I had to have my room key reprogrammed 3 or 4 times, it kept losing its settings. The WiFi was really good and robust, I was able to work very effectively. Location was ok, there were some restaurants nearby that reasonable. I would stay here again, but I wouldn’t pay for breakfast. My room could have cleaner, it was a bit grubby in places. But the staff were so friendly and helpful, they couldn’t do enough for me. This more than made up for the terrible food. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom worked well. I had a small kitchen which was great. The bed was comfortable. There were lost of access doors around the hotel making access to car park really easy, I didn’t have to constantly go via the front door.
