Top hotels in Downtown Frederick
Visitation Hotel Frederick, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
Very nice hotel. Luggage had to be taken up significant stone stairs - so be aware. Parking is valet or difficult street parking. Nice spacious clean room with comfortable bed; well stocked bathroom. Ice brought by cleaning lady — very helpful.

Hilton Garden Inn Frederick
Quality and Spaciousness of the room, lobby, and halls was lovely. Labelling around stairwells could be improved I didn't know if the stairwell next to my room I was in was fire exit only or a normal stairwell.
