If you listen to the beat...
you will hear William Butterfield, the drummer on Drummer’s lot #49 in the 1750's conveying public information through a variety of complex drumbeats. Since 1784 this lot has been the location for the historic Maryland Inn, a popular place for lodging throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, The Maryland Inn along with it’s vintage sister properties, The Governor Calvert House and The Robert Johnson House form the Historic Inns of Annapolis where guests enjoy modern features and amenities amidst the rich traditions of this charming seaport community.
The Historic Inns of Annapolis welcomes you to enjoy the unique ambiance of their boutique style guestrooms, each with their own individualized story of famous guests. Dining in the award winning 18th Century Restaurant, the Treaty of Paris, keeps you steeped in American history while reminiscing about the sights and sounds of your day.
Whether you strolled the waterfront, visited the U.S. Naval Academy, followed the cobblestone streets to the State House and legislative buildings or spent your time meandering among the unique shops and high-energy pubs, you have made the perfect choice to listen to the beat, as guests have done for centuries, at the Historic Inns of Annapolis.
