USA, Bethesda, Maryland. November 28, 2024

Hilton Garden Inn Bethesda Downtown has completed a four million-dollar transformation, including the lobby, meetings and events spaces, bar and lounge, restaurant, and a new fitness center. The renovation ushers in a newly reimagined era for the 216-room property with contemporary and purposeful design elements complemented by technological enhancements such as amplified Wi-Fi capabilities, keyless locks, and UNO Net television systems. Whether guests are traveling for business, attending an event, or enjoying vacation, the welcoming, pet-friendly oasis provides a relaxing and convenient base to explore all that beautiful downtown Bethesda has to offer. The hotel is located within walking distance to trendy shops and restaurants, just one block from the Bethesda Metro Station, six miles to historic Georgetown, seven miles to downtown Washington D.C., and easily accessible from all major market airports.

"This renovation brings to life an experience where business and leisure intersect, with service and attention to detail weaved into every aspect," said Amanda Mauceri, Senior Vice President of Development for Dauntless Capital Partners, which owns Hilton Garden Inn Bethesda Downtown. "Ideally nestled in the heart of downtown Bethesda, our newly transformed hotel provides guests a passport to one of the most prominent communities in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area."

Led by Premier Design Firm, the refresh is rooted in nature with a soothing, muted palette featuring pops of vibrant colors that reference Bethesda's seasonal changes. The modern aesthetic boasts timeless finishes and furniture styles that are warm and welcoming, with a variety of soft seating options and textures. Throughout the lobby and public spaces, seating focuses on communal configurations that encourage interactions between guests and hotel team members. An emphasis on natural light, with support from warm lighting, creates a residential atmosphere. Art throughout the hotel references nature through both abstract and realistic pieces.

"With this incredible makeover, we are proud to offer our guests an experience that perfectly blends comfort, functionality, and productivity," said AJ Gallow, General Manager of Hilton Garden Inn Bethesda Downtown. "Our commitment to exceeding guest expectations remains at the forefront of our mission."

Hilton Garden Inn Bethesda Downtown features 1,662 square feet of versatile meetings and events space designed to accommodate a variety of gatherings with style and sophistication. In addition to corporate functions, these venues can also be used for social occasions, such as elegant downtown weddings. With four distinct event rooms, the hotel can accommodate up to 100 attendees. The property offers flexibility, attention to detail, personalized service, and privacy. The unique spaces come complete with robust internet capabilities, projectors, presentation screens, and audio-video equipment for clear sound and video conferencing.

The Garden Grille, the hotel's signature restaurant and lobby bar, features fresh, local ingredients with a menu focusing on comfort foods that are both familiar and delicious. The restaurant offers breakfast items such as Greek Yogurt Bowls and Belgian-Style Waffles, as well as light fare including flatbreads, salads, and sandwiches. Guests also can order heartier entrees such as the 10 Oz. NY Strip Steak, Pasta Primavera, and Simply Grilled Salmon, and enjoy desserts including Salted Caramel Crunch Cake and Flourless Chocolate Torte. The Garden Grille is open for breakfast weekdays 6:00am-10:00am and weekends 7:00am-11:00am. For dinner, The Garden Grille is open daily from 5:00pm - 10:00pm.

The new state-of-the-art fitness center is equipped with the latest exercise equipment for cardio, strength-training, and balance including a Peloton Bike and Precor, to enhance the workout experience for travelers. Fitness enthusiasts can also enjoy a morning run at Elm Street Urban Park, conveniently located adjacent to the hotel.

The hotel is part of the Hilton Garden Inn brand, offering business and leisure guests upscale, affordable accommodations and modern amenities for an elevated experience.
