The Maryland Hotel Lodging Association (MHLA)
is a trade-based membership organization representing
Maryland’s lodging industry.

Maryland’s hotels provide the state with $1 billion in state and local taxes, $5 billion in total wages and salaries,
and $9 billion in total gross domestic product–with MHLA serving as the unified voice for the industry at the state and local level,
lobbying for their interests and providing resources. ​
