Candlewood Suites Building 4690

I have to stay here for several weeks at a time twice a year. To manage expectations for folks who need an extended stay, there are no ovens which is problematic. Room cleaning isn’t consistent and a lot of the time, I’m missing the items they’re supposed to provide (dish towel/rag, dishwasher tabs) for service. The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired (expected powdered eggs and frozen items for the Wed socials) so I opt to cook all meals in my room if I don’t go out. The gym only has a few cardio machines, a set of dumbbells, and a very small cable machine. Plan on using the base gyms. The rooms I’ve stayed in are quite nice and spacious.

This is not a civilian hotel in any way. What the front desk doesn't tell you when you book is you need a sponsor if you are a civilian. And if you sponsor lives off base they need to physically escort you to the hotel. The hotel is great IF you hold a current military ID.

I’m always impressed with this hotel! It’s my third time staying here, and it’s one of my favorite places. The hotel is easy to access, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast is great, with a wide variety of options. The rooms are fantastic, with all the little touches like Kleenex, paper towels, and a special light under the microwave that makes me excited to come back to my room at night. The Dove toiletries are also great. Highly recommend if you are coming to Fort Meade!

*Must have military base access* We love this location! Lived here for 6 weeks during PCS. It was a great intro to Ft Meade, a home away from home. The rooms are comfortable. Great AC/Heat, clean, and they have a full size fridge and two burner stove, microwave and desk. They allow pets and try to get most on the first floor so it's easier for potty breaks. They have an awesome daily breakfast! When we stayed, they also had a manager's special Wed nights that served foods like hot dogs, chips, that sort of thing. On 8/7/2025, we noticed that they also have brand new Cornhole games set out. They have free laundry, you just need soap and they have a business section that we used often for homework and PCS paperwork. They also have a loan locker with things like a crockpot and even office su

Very nice accommodations for families and friends of those stationed at Ft. Meade. Spacious rooms with kitchenette and plenty of counter space. Clean! There was an older gentleman who was very friendly, helpful, and always cleaning! A hot breakfast was provided consisting of eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, potatoes, bagels, oatmeal, pastries, cereals, juices, yogurts, and milk. We would definitely stay here again!
