Does Your Hotel Clean With "Green" Products?

Ours does! We are proud to be partners with Proctor and Gamble Professional Services, and LOVE that all of the products we use come with their "green guarantee"! Not only has every product been assessed for safety before it reaches us, they even test the chemicals for things like short and long term toxicity, skin and eye irritation, skin allergies, aquatic toxicity, and biodegradability. Of course, their products are concentrated, which means less packaging is used to get them to us. For more information, go to www.greenguarantee.com . Or, if you want to ask someone here about what it's like to use products like Spic and Span, Tide, Mr. Clean, and Comet every day, just email Laura Zambrano, our Executive Housekeeper, at lzambrano@pmhs.com .

Do you know what your hotel is using to clean it's rooms? Shouldn't you?

What's going On With the New Old Hotel?

In 2009, the Comfort Inn/Capital Beltway (formerly the Fairfield Inn Capital Beltway) will be a preferred select service hotel in suburban Maryland serving the needs of travelers in the economy and mid price segments, as well as a preferred provider of rooms to tour groups traveling to the Washington DC and Baltimore area.

Positioned just 10 miles outside Washington, DC and 30 miles south of Baltimore, we are an affordable price alternative to those traveling to the DC and Baltimore metro areas that are seeking quieter, safer and more affordable lodging as compared to downtown hotels.
Our breakfast room, which hosts a complimentary deluxe continental breakfast each morning, provides complimentary coffee and extra work space during the day for anyone. Guests can also relax in our lobby area, which features complimentary wireless internet access in front of a cozy fireplace and flat panel LCD TV.

Recreational areas include a spacious outdoor swimming pool and whirlpool as well as a fitness center equipped with treadmills, stair climber, elliptical, and exercise cycle.

With 166 standard guest rooms and 3 deluxe suites, our guests can choose from a variety of bed types including one king bed, one queen bed, two queen beds or two room suites with sofa beds or conference table. Our hotel is 100% smoke free, 100% pet friendly, and each room is equipped with free high speed internet access and pay per view movie service. A varied selection of room inventory along with 7 function rooms totaling over 5,000 square feet makes the Comfort Inn an ideal location for large corporate or social groups. Our 130 seat amphitheater makes us an ideal location for teams or classes that would like to capitalize on group activities in a large theater setting.

Set in the middle of a shopping center that is flanked on either side by offices and across the street from a movie theater, the hotel property’s ample and complimentary parking as well as its easy access to 95 and 495 make it an ideal location for any traveler who prioritizes an easy commute. Multi-lingual staff members make any interaction easy and comfortable, from the Sales process right up until checkout.

Tour Groups, SMERF groups, and Sports Teams may find our amphitheater beneficial for meetings. Construction crews, traveling professionals, and the last minute “road trip” consumer will appreciate our easy highway access and complimentary breakfast. We are now the closest Choice product to Choice Hotel headquarters, located 6.6 miles away.
