Make the Most of Your Gaithersburg Stay

A gateway to innovation and history

Gaithersburg serves as a biotechnology powerhouse along Maryland's I-270 corridor, where cutting-edge research facilities coexist with thoughtfully preserved 19th-century architecture. The city gained international recognition through the Kentlands neighborhood, one of America's first New Urbanism developments designed in 1988, featuring walkable brick streets and a village-style town center. The historic Olde Towne district centers on an 1884 B&O Railroad station designed by Ephraim Francis Baldwin, now housing the community museum, while the International Latitude Observatory stands as the city's only National Historic Landmark, having measured Earth's polar wobble from 1899 to 1982.

Modern gathering spaces

The RIO Lakefront complex transforms suburban retail into a destination experience, with restaurants overlooking a man-made lake where paddle boats drift past a vintage carousel. Downtown Crown represents the city's contemporary evolution, offering upscale dining including Ruth's Chris Steak House and sophisticated gathering spaces that appeal to business travelers seeking quality without the downtown D.C. commute. The culinary scene extends to Kenaki Sushi's omakase experiences in the Kentlands, reflecting the city's educated, internationally diverse population.

Strategic positioning

Located 13 miles from Washington, D.C., Gaithersburg provides easy access to the capital via the Shady Grove Metro terminus and MARC commuter rail, while Seneca Creek State Park's 6,300 acres offer immediate natural respite. Members can use miles to book accommodations near Rio or Downtown Crown, positioning yourself between the region's corporate centers and cultural attractions.
