Reviews Hotel The Fairmont Washington D.C. ****

This hotel has always met and exceeded our expectations.

The hotel is beautiful, the hotel staff is excellent and the

rooms we've stayed in have been wonderful.

The Fairmont Hotel chain is a good brand ---but the Washington, DC Fairmont is in need of a facelift. Specifically, the bedding is on its last legs ---and very uncomfortable. The room tvs are small, old and not up to par. Carpeting, too, should be replaced....and man;y of the rooms need to be repainted. The first room we were assigned to is directely across the street from a major construction project ---with jackhammers starting around 7:00am.

The staff is courteous and helpful...but they don't have enough hotel to work with at the moment.

Right now, I would NOT recommend this hotel.

Very good location for price. Near restaurants, metro and Georgetown

Highly recommend, excellent room, great service. Good value, expectations were exceeded.

It met or exceeded all our expectations............

A comfortable, elegant hotel centrally located between Georgetown and the business district of the city. The hotel staff were courteous and, apart from a few minor slip-ups (our room wasn't serviced until after 3pm on one day), competent. Our standard room was small but well-appointed.

The hotel was very comfortable and clean. The staff was very nice and accomodating. We were impressed at how they went the extra mile to meet our requests. It was a great value for the money and we look forward to staying there again.

This hotel lives up to the Fairmont name and reputation.

The hotel was beautiful, the room very comfortable and

the service excellent. Everything far exceeded the price

paid.

Yes! The staff -- especially Kim?? (AM shift, 3/6) the Concierge, and Bacardi and Lance w/the Front Desk were just Super high-energy, "can do", service-oriented great hires. Also, Housekeeping did a great job each day. My expectations were well exceeded.

We booked 2 rooms with Fairmont. We specified (and paid more) to have one of the rooms with a queen or King bed. At check in, they informed us that Fairmont does not have a Queen room and there was no King room left. The gentleman in the reception (who, by the way, was not trying to be helpful at all) told us that the bed type (Queen/King) that has been mentioned in the hotel's voucher is not Fairmont's notation but the agency's which booked the room for us. We ended up talking to the manager and for one of the rooms he gave us part of a junior suite with a King Murphy bed.
