The Chesapeake Bay Bridge connects "mainland" Maryland with the state's Eastern Shore region. The bridge and the routes leading to it are extremely heavily trafficked, particular during summer months when city and suburban dwellers escape to the beach. There are several hotels near the bridge that cater to the many travelers passing through this area every year.
The Annapolis Marriott Waterfront is nine miles from the Bay Bridge and sits on the Chesapeake Bay. The property offers a variety of rooms, including Jacuzzi rooms and suites, and some rooms---called PURE rooms---that have been put through a process to remove allergens and improve the air quality in the room. The hotel features concierge service, free bicycles for use in seeing the city, a full-service business center and a fitness center. The hotel has 5,600 square feet of meeting space. Restaurants within half a mile of the hotel include Pusser's Caribbean Grille, Chart House Restaurant, Hell Point Seafood, O'Leary's Seafood Restaurant and Buddy's Crabs and Ribs. The hotel is half a mile from the Maryland State House, .7 miles from the Naval Academy and one mile from Annapolis National Cemetary.
