Magdalena
Sophisticated international fare in Baltimore
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Four-Star

Located inside
Baltimore’s
The Ivy Hotel, Magdalena is a feast for the eyes and for the mouth. The lovely restaurant has quickly become an acclaimed fine-dining spot since opening in 2015.
At first glance, a striking mural of a Spanish woman, inspired by American portrait artist John Singer Sargent, welcomes you upon entering the restaurant. The decorative wall art continues throughout the Baltimore restaurant with intricate trompe l'oeil and folk art compositions.
Chef Mark Levy is at the helm of the kitchen that turns out inspired and seasonal international dishes — in fact, expect the sophisticated menu to change on a daily basis.
