Amtrak has reached agreement with Hospitality Partners to develop a 77-room hotel in the upper three levels of Baltimore's 98-year-old Pennsylvania Station, the Baltimore Sun reports. Construction of the $9 million project, called The Inn at Penn Station, is expected to begin by year's end and be completed by late 2010.
The hotel will be housed in space that once housed Amtrak offices and is now vacant. Under a plan endorsed by the Maryland Historical Trust, the hotel rooms will line the station's perimeter and will be reached from corridors overlooking the main concourse below.
Hospitality Partners is a hotel management company based in Bethesda, Md.
