Decent stay overall, but nothing to write home about. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, which are the basics I look for. Staff was polite, and check-in was quick and easy. That said, the place is starting to show its age--hallways could use a refresh, and the air conditioning unit was pretty loud. Breakfast was just okay--standard options but nothing warm really stood out. Not a bad choice for a quick overnight stop, but there might be better options nearby depending on your needs. read more

See all

We had a very pleasant overnight stay here on our way to Colorado. Each staff member we encountered was very nice and the lady who oversaw breakfast was excellent. She seemed to routinely go above and beyond for patrons. And the breakfast was really good- it is the small touches that make it a step up from a typical hotel breakfast: fresh blueberry compote, raspberry and mango syrup for the waffles; fresh fruit diced, Bob's red mill oatmeal etc. The hotel is older but clean. The 3rd floor appeared to new carpet in halls and in our room. Location is fairly convenient. My one disappointment was that they didn't have a fitness room. We could have used residence inns fitness room but who wants to drive over there. I would definitely stay here again. read more

Room was beautiful, clean and comfortable. Everyone on staff was outstanding, friendly and courteous. We travel a lot and have not had such a pleasant hotel stay since before Covid. The morning breakfast was a true breakfast with everything fresh and hot.. read more

Stellar service! Every employee that we interacted with was delightful. I was worried that the place would be noisy because there seemed to be a hoard of teenage basketball players staying there, but I didn't hear a thing. Bed was very comfortable, room and breakfast area were very clean. read more

It's Topeka...learn to expect less. I am surprised that the capital of Kansas has such low-end hotel offerings...c'mon already. As far as Fairfield goes, this is as nice as they get...clean, fast, efficient check-in. Rooms are fresh and colorful. The beds are comfy and clean...a few little up-scale things like granite sinks and larger flat screens...free wi-fi that's easy to get into is really nice. I am here all week...for $79/day you cant beat it! read more

Tammy made our stay absolutely amazing. She got us a king size bed in a wedding party that was only queens. She was so friendly and nice it made the stay amazing. read more

This Fairfield Inn is agreeable. Ashley at the front was agreeable, the lobby is quaint and the place is clean. The room on the first floor had a bit of smell to it that was mostly cleared from opening the window - hooray for windows that open! The bedding and sheets were good enough, without being squeaky or itchy. The room was clean and the decor was modern. This room still had a tube tv. This hotel is certainly acceptable, it did not have any stand out features. read more

The good: Cheap, some health things for breakfast The bad: No fitness room, property is old It's Topeka, what do you expect? read more

We booked this location as a Priceline deal rather than selecting a specific hotel. We typically stay at holiday inn express but decided to live on the edge. Upon booking we discovered they were not able to change us from a 2queen room to a king room simply because "our system won't let us". I understand they are following rules so I wasn't going to argue that I knew there was a way around this. The customer service was good, but nothing matching the reviews. The hotel as a whole is incredibly humid and stuffy feeling. It is simply old. The rooms are pretty small and the bathrooms are outdated. However!, our room was clean, the TV/cable works and there IS in fact a microwave and mini fridge (quite outdated and mismatched if I might add) There is an odd smell through the whole building including inside the room, but I would blame the age of the building. The AC is on a struggle bus, so if you are used to sleeping in a very cool room, you might reconsider. The beds are average. I don't think a remodel would help this location much as it appears they have already tried. I think it's just seen better day. On a very very positive note. We saved $50 in one night by staying here! It's definitely worth what we paid at that rate but I would be quite upset if we paid full price. read more

This Fairfield was great! We were greeted right away. We received a "welcome back" due to our Marriott status. The king room on the third floor was perfect. Clean, smelled good, the bed was comfy, the hotel was quiet. Overall, we enjoyed staying here. read more

Love this hotel!! It was conveniently located by a lot of restaurants and the room was really nice for the price. Clean, updated, and the breakfast was delicious. We also had a really amazing woman (waitress?) that was so sweet and helpful clearing plates and offering water bottles. These are the kind of touches that make a difference. Very impressed. Highly recommend. read more

The name suggests a nicer hotel than it is. The lobby is extremely run down and off-putting. No breakfast options whatsoever. No gym. No free wifi. I found blood on my new towel, and a hair on one of my pillows. This place is bad news. read more

Had several issues, manager worked to resolved everything read more

Fairfield Inn by Marriott - Dirty bed sheets - Hotels Near Me - Topeka, Kansas

I reserved the room expecting Marriott quality, but was very disappointed. It's an older property with small rooms. The only room amenity is the microwave. Breakfast was ok, but the lack of a fitness center or a decent pool was very disappointing. I was expecting more for the price paid on the hotel. Anyone planning on staying in Topeka for more than 1 night should avoid this place. read more

Dependable moderate hotel. Clean rooms, though needs a bit more updating - older carpet but as clean as they could get it. Extremely nice service. Pretty good breakfast - eggs and sausage... not bad for a standard hotel breakfast. read more

I travel a lot, an elite Marriott member, this hotel is older, you can tell its dates even though it has current carpets and colors. The staff was nice, but honestly I would definitely recommend probably going to another location only cause of the dated feel. It's a place to stop in a pinch read more

The room was a nice, clean, warm haven from the bitterly cold winter night. The staff of this hotel is impressive. It is another example of where customer service makes all the difference. Making the reservation was super fast and easy. The person answering the phone sounded joyful and glad we chose to stay with them. When we arrived we were greeted by Shawn. Big smile and nice interaction. What really impressed me was at breakfast. The lady who kept the breakfast going interacted very personably, she asked if we had a good nights rest and thanked us for staying with them. Also if there were anything she could do for us. After breakfast, we went to get our bags and were cheerfully greeted by two women from the cleaning staff. Again each asked if we slept well, wishing us safe travel and thanking us for staying. One joked that the cold weather would surely wake us up that morning, then wished us a safe trip. As we went to leave, the people at the front desk were thankful for our stay, invited us back, then the lady who was in charge of the breakfast happened to be at the front door helping people in and out of the door by opening and holding it for them. Again, the property was ok. The staff was exceptional. Ironically, I was on my was from Texas to Iowa to teach a couple programs on customer service. Guess who I am going to use as a positive example. read more

Our stay was great we totally enjoyed our stay and the staff was fantastic... The complimentary breakfast was perfect for our family to start the day... In short we had a wonderful time... read more

Its ok not the greatest...no fitness room..no drink area as in most marriotts has a place where i can buy some water or Gatorade or medicine or essentials...this place does not have one and for 120 a night i would expect more...also being an elite platinum member the check in was less than favorable!! The rooms were clean but they put me in the 2nd flr and not the 3rd i seem to recall elite members getting top flr. And again no dam lotion in the room! This has happened at several marriott locations!! I guess they are getting cheap on the lotion! I had this at a 3 star but i downgraded...the room is the only thing this place has going for it and that is just cuz its clean...i will update this after breakfast hopefully they can salvage a star after breakfast! read more

This is by far the worst MARRIOTT i have ever stayed at. Filthy dirty, old still has the vinyl currents, small TVs on the lower dresser! Shower was rusty and dirty as well as the toilet had a toilet ring so brown no scrubbing could get rid of it. The outlet in the bathroom had burn marks like something caught fire in it. Didn't even plug my dryer or flat iron in thought it might catch fire AGAIN. The only thing was good about my stay was the front desk check in gal super sweet and genuine. I wish I could remember her name. But I didn't see her again through our stay! Kudos to you!!! read more

I booked here because it's the chain I have rewards with, and couldn't have been happier. The people who work there - from the front desk to housekeeping to the breakfast attendant - were all very, very nice to us. The room was very comfortable and clean, the stay was quiet, the pool and hot tub were very clean, the location is centralized and convenient to everything, and free breakfast is very handy. For the level of hotel it is, we were very happy. I thought it included a fitness facility which is available but not on-site, which was a disappointment, but not that big a detractor. The staff were the shining star, though. By the end of our stay, we knew them by name and a bit about their families, as they did ours. Will definitely stay again. read more

Excellent customer service! I called to schedule a block of rooms for my wedding and they were very helpful, kind, and accommodating! I look forward to having my guests stay at this hotel! read more

We have been coming here for years. They always take great care of us. Tammy is always right there making sure we have everything we need. Sean takes care of all our front desk needs and he is a great guy. This last stay, we had a death in the family and John, the manager, made sure we had everything we needed for comfort. They held a block of rooms for the traveling family. Gave us a fair price without even asking. The day my mother in law passed, when we came back to our rooms for some much needed sleep, there were cards and flowers for us. Who's does that? These guys are amazing! Year after year they remember us all by name and details about who we all are and where we come from. The room staff does an amazing job and are so respectful of our belongings. Not to mention so wonderful on a personal level. This is Topeka Kansas, not a New York City high end Marriott but the place is always clean. The complementary breakfast is always fresh and tasty. The halls and rooms have no cigarette smells or other strange odors! We will continue to come back year after year in the future. read more
