Beginning March 1, the Frederick Maryland Hotel & Conference Center, located adjacent to the Francis Scott Key Mall in Frederick, MD, will become the Clarion Inn Frederick Event Center. The property is located less than one hour from Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Gettysburg.
"We are excited about the evolution of this Frederick landmark," says Susan Lent-Cohen, president of Cohenterprises and owner of the 156-room conference center hotel. "The Clarion brand has strong name recognition in the leisure market but also offers convenient amenities and great value for business and group travelers, particularly for both large and small conferences."
With nearly 13,000 square feet of meeting and event space, the Frederick Event Center is the largest venue for conferences in the Frederick area.
Cohenterprises plans to convert the Frederick Event Center into a green meeting venue with alternative energy in the future. The property features a lounge, 24-hour business center, indoor pool, fitness center, and miniature golf.
