Hotel/Travel

The Inn & Conference Center, University of Maryland University College

A Washington DC area conference center is making history by blending luxury with environmentally responsible design. Adding to the allure, an onsite gallery houses one of Maryland's finest art collections, and the hotel's restaurant prepares regional specialties with organically grown produce. But what makes this Marriott truly innovative is its LEEDS certification: it's the country's first environmentally friendly hotel and conference center as designated by the US Green Building Council. Using energy-saving systems and recyclable materials, The Inn & Conference Center is a green hotel built for minimal impact on the environment and big impressions on guests. Next to University of Maryland, College Park; 10 miles from downtown DC; free shuttle to Metro.
