The Fairfax is a Ritz lite. Very lite. You can hear neighbors through the walls. And you can hear noisy, truck and bus infested Massachusetts Avenue through the windows if you're on that side of the building. The rooms are very simple but comfortable. The bathroom is only a step up from a good motel. My shower was really laughable.... More

I have always been a fan of the Fairfax Embassy Row hotel in DC. I have stayed here several times and have suggested several people to stay here as well. My latest visit to the Fairfax proved to be extremely disappointing. I am a Starwood elite member, but NO elite member benefits at this property. My room was no larger... More

The Fairfax Hotel is located just one or two blocks from Dupont Circle, a major metro hub for DC. It is a little long, but pleasant walk from here to the National Mall as well in the summertime. The Embassy Row neighborhood is gorgeous and there are many great restaurants in walking distance. The interior decor of the hotel is... More

This hotel was very close (less than two blocks) from the dupont metro, and many fine restaurants on P St. If you like memory foam then you will enjoy the bed. The bathroom is wonderful with a good sized tub. The room was very nice and a corner. Will warn travelers: Breakfast at Prime was less than prime, and the... More

What a beautiful hotel!! We stayed here in Dec. 2011 while visiting family in DC. The hotel is elegant, the staff throughout the hotel helpful and friendly, and the breakfast buffet is excellent. The Phillips Art Collection is across the street and there are many wonderful restaurants and shops within a short walk of the hotel. We did have to... More

I stayed here in November while visiting my daughter. My room was small, but comfortable. I found the staff to be helpful and friendly, which is always comforting. The fitness center was well equipped and convenient to use. We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant one evening, and had a great bottle of wine that was recommended. The hotels location is... More

This hotel is part of the luxury collection.... the lobby is lacking the element of luxury. The carpet in the lobby is nasty and dirty. If you are here for one night you might not want to stay again based on the lobby, but I was at this hotel for 9 nights and found the hotel to be very nice.... More

I have stayed at the hotel a couple of times previously, but probably not within the last 2-3 years. We went to DC for the night to see a show at The Kennedy Center, and The Fairfax is centrally located in DC just off DuPont Circle. We rented a small suite.
