LOCAL AIRPORTS

The best airports to fly into include: Washington National Airport (DCA) or Baltimore/Washington International (BWI).  If you fly into DCA, you could take the metro to the College Park station (green line) and The Hotel has a complimentary shuttle that will pick you up.  If you fly into BWI,  you would need to either rent a car or take a taxi/shuttle/Uber/Lyft from the airport to the hotel.   The Hotel does NOT provide a shuttle from BWI and there is no metro or train that would take you to College Park.
