Historical Note
Hotel Rennert was a first class Rennaisance-style hotel located in Baltimore, Maryland on the corner of West Saratoga and Liberty streets. Owned by Robert Rennert and designed by architect E. Francis Baldwin, the hotel was seven stories high and fireproof. Notable guests to the hotel included Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and ex-President William Howard Taft. With competition from the nearby Belvedere Hotel, the Rennert suffered and eventually closed down in 1939. The hotel was destroyed in 1941.
