Navy Gateway Inns & Suites (NGIS) opened a new facility on March 1, at the Naval Support Activity (NSA) Bethesda, Maryland.

NSA Bethesda is responsible for base operational support for more than 40 tenant commands, including Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

"NGIS offers more than 24,000 guest beds at military installations worldwide and provides excellent accommodations for Department of Defense travelers on official government travel," said Tamara Davis, Navy Lodging program director. "We're very excited to add the Bethesda NGIS to our inventory. NSA Bethesda has been without an NGIS for a number of years. The additional inventory will provide a much needed service and save travel dollars."

NGIS offers quality lodging services for individual and group temporary duty travelers, Department of Defense civilians, retirees, reservists, and sponsored guests. NGIS lodging also provides accommodation for vacation and leisure travel on a space-available basis.

The new NGIS Bethesda facility is located at 4520 Taylor Road, Building 64. It offers standard and suite guest rooms with queen-size beds.

All rooms include a microwave oven, mini-refrigerator, iron and ironing board, cable TV with premium channels, complimentary Wi-Fi, coffee maker, clock radio, hair dryer and an in-room safe. Laundry facilities are provided on site and parking is available.
