Thayer Lodging Group is a privately held real estate investment company with a portfolio of 14 hotels and over 2,800 guest rooms.

As recently announced, they will offer allergy-friendly guest accommodations at ten of their hotels and 99.9% allergenic-free meeting facilities at four of their Executive Meeting Centers (EMC) and Conference Centers.

Utilizing the PURE Room system, the most comprehensive allergy-friendly system in the hospitality industry, Thayer Lodging will offer guests an environment where surfaces are treated to minimize contaminants and irritants, such as mold spores, yeast, bacteria, pollen, dust, dust mites and chlorine -- as well as their odors.

In Thayer Lodging Group "Pure Conference Rooms," air will be purified at greater intensity and will be filtrated eight times more frequently than standard air handling systems.

Featuring a 99.9% non-allergenic treatment of air and surfaces, and frequently recycled air to lower levels of sleep- inducing carbon dioxide, these IACC-Certified Conference Centers will aim to increase meeting attendee productivity.

Currently, Thayer Lodging Group offers seven hotels with PURE allergy- friendly rooms, four with PURE conference space and three more hotels are scheduled to have PURE rooms by mid-July:

• Annapolis Marriott Waterfront, MD
