“Loved the Courtyard Garden!”

Reviewed May 17, 2013 NEW

My husband and I stayed 4 nights and we loved to sit in the Courtyard Garden each afternoon before dinner. The garden is full of color and serenity and we found it an oasis after a day of visiting monuments and museums! The garden can also be enjoyed from the Piano bar which is elegantly furnished. The Hotel is walking... More

“One of my favorite hotels in DC”

I go to DC quite a bit for business and I love staying at the Fairmont. The location is perfect for both my business requirements and for its proximity to Georgetown, great restaurants and fun nightlife. The rooms are nice and clean, but fairly standard. My only suggestion would be to avoid Room 424 (which is actually quite beautiful) unless... More

“First time in a Fairmont”

This was my first time in a Farmont hotel, so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. The building, entrance, lobby, all look great. But there was nothing particularly memorable about the room. It was nice, had a pleasant view. There are a number of other high end hotels in that area, The Four Season, The Park... More

“One of my Favourite Fairmonts”

Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW

I do like to stay in Fairmont hotels, and I have to say this was one of my favourites. Having a room that faces the lovely courtyard is a beautiful thing. I suppose it helped that the flowers were in bloom...but regardless, it's so peaceful having that as your room backdrop! I loved the Fairmont "Loyalty Member" check in -... More

Thank you for the review! We’re glad you are such a Fairmont loyalist—and that we were one of your favorites. Always exciting to hear! The courtyard view is delightful any time of the year, but there is no arguing that having the flowers in bloom helps. You picked a wonderful time to come to DC. We appreciate your kind words...

Great place to stay, fantastic customer service,I would definitley stay again when in Washington D.C. The rooms were Luxurious and the beds were very comfortable with many pillows. The attention to detail at this hotel is fabulous and monuments are a healthy walk or cab ride.

“Old luxury, with a couple parts showing more old than luxury”

Reviewed May 12, 2013 NEW

I stayed here for two nights comped as part of a conference (rate would have been $249). The room was luxurious, as my title would suggest, but look closely and you can start to see the wear and tear that likely needs updating soon. The furniture (mostly wood, for the dresser/desk/night tables) had many small nicks; the bed wasn't quite... More

Set within walking distance to the Lincoln Memorial, The Fairmont Washington is a quiet oasis on the edge of Georgetown. I stayed here four nights and every one of the service staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. I upgraded my room to face the courtyard on a higher floor and it was worth it!
