Wyndham Baltimore Peabody Court

Watch the Orioles soar – or penguins cavorting.

There are so many things to do and see here in our historic city, near the Wyndham Peabody Court Baltimore hotel. Fortunately, many of them are walking distance from the hotel. We call the area urban residential, you'll call it sublime. Baltimore has a thriving arts community, so take time to stroll over to the Walter's Art Museum with its Renaissance bronzes, old master paintings, and deco jewelry. Or to the Peabody Institute with its seemingly neverending performance schedule. Also in the neighborhood is the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall where you'll have a chance to enjoy the artistry of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. One more spectacular choice that's just minutes by foot is the Inner Harbor. A few blocks further is Oriole Park at Camden Yards. It's the place to see our home team at bat. Kids of all ages will love the Maryland Science Center and our own Maryland Zoo. And Pimlico Race Course with the world-class Preakness is our very own option for seeing the sport of kings. No matter how you choose to spend your time here in lovely Baltimore, we hope you will return and be our guest again and again.
