Two New Cambria Hotels and More Property Developments in the East
Delaware
The boutique Cambria Hotel Rehoboth Beach opened in Rehoboth, Delaware, a popular Eastern Seaboard destination, and puts guests a few miles away from the world-famous Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk and some of the area’s top dining and entertainment venues.
Cambria Hotel Rehoboth Beach offers 106 guest rooms and suites as well as premium amenities that include an outdoor pool, the onsite Veranda Restaurant and Bar, and a business center. The hotel has more than 6,000 square feet of meeting space and offers onsite catering from its restaurant.
Maryland
The dual-branded Residence Inn and Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott opened in the historic heart of Annapolis, Maryland, where the city served as the first capital of the U.S..
The four-story property is the closest walkable hotel to Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium and within 15 miles of Baltimore Washington International Airport. Guests staying at the hotel can also walk to the Annapolis Shuttle to the Downtown Waterfront area for local shopping and dining.
The Residence Inn features 78 extended stay suites, including fully equipped kitchens, while the Fairfield Inn & Suites offers 75 guest rooms. Together, the properties offer a 576-square-foot meeting room that can accommodate up to 40 attendees. The Boardroom seats eight guests conference-style. Both spaces come with state-of-the-art audiovisual capabilities.

New Hampshire
Cambria Hotels International opened the new Cambria Hotel North Conway earlier this summer near Mt. Washington, promoting the property as “New Hampshire’s newest gateway for White Mountain adventures.” The hotel places guests in the North Conway area, known for its hiking trails and snow activities like skiing, snowboarding and tubing.
Cambria Hotel North Conway offers 115 guest rooms and 1,550 square feet of meeting space as well as an indoor pool and onsite restaurant.
New York
InterContinental New York Times Square, a LEED-certified property, unveiled a refresh of its meetings and events spaces, which total more than 10,000 square feet.
The hotel’s renovation project included enhancements to the conference center complex, featuring the 4,000-square-foot pillarless Gotham Ballroom, Washington Square Park, The Executive Boardroom and the private salon at The Stinger Cocktail Bar & Kitchen, the property’s onsite restaurant.
The revamped meetings and events spaces feature new art installations as well as wall and floor treatments, all designed with an earth-tone palette to complement the hotel’s natural elements.
InterContinental New York Times Square’s meeting rooms are each named after Manhattan parks—Central Park, Bryant Park, Union Square Park and Gramercy Park, among others—also drawing on the hotel’s theme of natural and environmental elements.

Hotel Champlain, formerly Hilton Burlington Lake Champlain, completed its transition to a Curio Collection by Hilton property.
