Lodging

Looking for nearby lodging? The hotels listed below are within driving distance of our main campus.

This list does not constitute an endorsement of the businesses listed.

Please note: APL must comply with government regulations pertaining to lodging per diem limits. It should be noted that APL’s campus, and surrounding area, is in Howard County, Maryland. For visitors traveling in connection with Laboratory business, we recommend you request the APL rate when making your reservation at one of these hotel properties. If your reservation is being made through a hotel chain’s 800 service, that service might not recognize the special APL rate. Therefore, make sure to advise the hotel front desk at check-in that your stay is related to your APL visit so the hotel will honor the special rate.
