Welcome to Baltimore’s Inn at the Black Olive, a green hotel with luxury suites and two restaurants that embrace farm-to-table, organic and the raw food movement. With the additional help and guidance of the new owners Jack Dwyer, founder of the Capital Funding Group and award-winning actor, known for his iconic role on Cheers and most recently for True Detective and Hunger Games , Woody Harrelson - the vision of the luxury, ecological full service inn continues being managed by Dimitris Spiliadis.

A dinner was held to kick off this new phase of the Inn at the Black Olive with a multi-course dinner at their rooftop Olive Room Restaurant that benefited Great Kids Farm. Being able to sit down with the new owners one got the sense of respect both Dwyer and Harrelson held for Spiliadis and his vision.

At the press conference it was made clear that Spiliadis’s vision of a green hotel and organic, farm-to-table restaurants would continue with Dwyer guiding where needed. Harrelson would be more behind the scenes and when his schedule permits visiting the Inn at the Black Olive.

The revival of the health conscious Inn at the Black Olive

This past winter, 2014, it was announced that actor Woody Harrelson and Baltimore’s own Jack Dwyer, founder of the Capital Funding Group, rescued the repossessed Inn at the Black Olive from First Mariner Bank with a 4.5 million 50/50 co-owner purchase. Management of the hotel will remain under the original owners, the Spiliadis family, specifically Dimitris, who connected with Harrelson when he lived at the hotel while filming HBO’s Game Change.

As a means to introduce the partners and the revival of the Inn at the Black Olive they are inviting folks to the grand re-opening dinner on Sunday, July 27th at 6 p.m. where the Harrelson, Dwyer and Spildiadis share their revolutionary vision.
