Hotels near Frederick Municipal Airport - FDK, Frederick

We were at the same hotel several years ago and had a decent/good experience so we revisited. However...the bed was so awful that we abandoned our anniversary weekend plans to leave at 1:30 am and drive the 90 minutes back home in rain. The staff was polite and generally helpful. They were very nearly full so I didn't push to get another room. My wife is wheelchair bound so it's no small effort for me to get everything picked up and resettled into another room - I was awake enough to simply drive home. Our special request to have extra pillows if the bed was non-adjustable was missed and I was a little surprised that it wasn't easy for them to find 3 extra (thin) pillows. IF there's a next time, we're bringing all of the pillows we might need, with zero apologies for doing so.

We had to cancel all our tours because my husband is having surgery next week & can't walk much. We loved the MET & enjoyed the play very much. Very friendly people. 3 times he had to have people help him as he could not get out of a chair twice & fell once. We ate at the Orchard which was very spicy, and the Shucking Shack. We love lobster rolls in New England so looked forward to then. These we chopped & seasoned without much lobster taste, but we enjoyed them.

Frederick is an interesting mix of old and new. Downtown is full of interesting small shops and eateries, all with their own character and ambience. Blocks of pleasant walking and the side streets also have unique spots to check out. Then there is the newer section with its own flavor and culinary delights. Great place to spend a few days.

Just love Frederick, especially the Carroll Creek area. Many different restaurants there and in downtown. My husband and I like to go to craft breweries and we enjoyed going to several during our stay. Had dinner at Brewers Alley and brunch at Isabella’s. Would recommend both.

Don’t miss the creek walk. A long beautiful walk with hardscaping, fountains, sculptures, and many beautiful walking bridges, each one different. We walked parts of it three times, and each time was a bustling community gathering. Prom couples also stopped by for photos on the bridges. Only a little frustrating when they would close down a section for a pay/wristband event. But it was just the amphitheater section of one side. You could still walk on the other side both times. Many boutiques and shops and good restaurants. The Thai place on Patrick and the sushi place above it were great. The civil war medical museum was very interesting and you can see everything in an hour or two. Parking was a little tight with all going on, but we drove around the block only once each time and found an open meter. Didn’t have to find a garage, unlike my own town. I was in town a couple weeks ago (loved the Delaplaine Art Center) and had to go back with family, I knew they’d love it.

Whether you like to explore the surrounding area or shop downtown at the many beautiful stores. Antiques and history are within reach of this area. Try the restaurants. You can find plenty to do. Visit Baker park or a favorite of my grandkids I Made This, pottery paint store. Visit DC museums about 40 minutes away or Gettsyburg. Back after a long day swim in the indoor pool or go to movie theatre.
