"Newly Renovated"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
The Best Western Plus BWI/Arundel Mills is going through a complete renovation to be completed in the next few weeks. The lobby, breakfast area, meeting space and all rooms have new furniture, flooring and wall coverings. Beautiful! The sleeping rooms could easily be in a four star hotel. The hotel offers an indoor pool, complimentary breakfast, airport shuttle, free parking and easy access to major highways taking you to Baltimore and DC. Only minutes away from Arundel Mills mall and
Maryland Live casino. The adjacent sports pub/restaurant is a popular spot for lunch or dinner and watching a game.
