    This is my favorite place to be after work for some cocktails and appetizers. Good time his friend my Bestie on a picture we have this place.

    Capital Corner suite

    This is a lovely hotel. The lobby is gorgeous, with its massive metal sculpture with various open geometric figures hanging over the width of the lounge. All the public areas and hallways look fresh and very upscale. Check-in was gracious; I had applied for standby upgrade and went from a signature room to a 700-square foot capital corner suite for only an additional $61 a night, which gave me a great rate for a wonderful room. Lots of space, including a dining nook for four and a full couch in a sitting area. The bathroom was pretty standard (no handheld fixture, either) and the linens on the bed weren't quite as nice as you might expect, but the mattress and pillows were great and overall the room looked great and had nice lighting as well. There are only a couple of negatives -- they are missing a real signature dining experience (the bar/lounge menu is good, but there's nothing like the Blue Duck Tavern at the Hyatt across the street) and the location isn't the best for tourists. The nearest Metro stop (Foggy Bottom) is a 10-15 minute walk away and there's not much that's conveniently walkable in the area. I walked from the McPherson Square area back to the Fairmont, and it took about 20 minutes. So it's doable, but not that handy.

    Great location, short walk into Georgetown. Full gym, not just a hotel gym. The balance gym within the hotel is a full service gym that guests have access to and includes a large selection of weights, cardio, and classes. Also 2 peloton bikes. There are water fill stations in the hallways. Room was clean and spacious. Beds very comfortable. Balconies face the courtyard. Staff is friendly. There is a cocktail lounge with food. Valet parking is available. The TV has Chromecast so you can stream directly to it. Really enjoyed our stay here and would stay again.

    I had a great staycation here. I stayed in a room that was part of Fairmont Gold, which has its own floor with its own concierge and lounge area. The Fairmont gold lounge also had complimentary breakfast and canapés in the evening. The canapés were actually more substantial than what I was expecting which was a pleasant surprise. They also had drinks and other snacks throughout the day available. I also enjoyed going down to the bar and having drinks in the beautiful lobby. My room was comfortable and nicely decorated. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely want to come back.

    Exceptional service- clean- friendly! Highly recommend for a conference or banquet. The service people were so very friendly and accommodating. The bar is nice as well to grab a quick bite or a drink after a long day.

    Convenient location for business or pleasure. I enjoyed walked to many locations. Both checkin and out were quick and all staff members I encountered were extremely professional and well trained. Rooms were OK, I had the shower towel rack fall and hit the back of my foot while showering which was unpleasant. Did get to alert anyone but by the time I got back that evening the room attendant had fixed it. Even the newest -2 days employee was ready and willing to hail a taxi for me when I had Uber woes. Didn't dine at Juniper but noteworthy is the fact that it is across the street from Blue Duck Tavern. Choose it, you will not be disappointed based on the painstaking attention to details and impeccable customer service.

    We recently stayed at the Fairmont for a quick staycation weekend with our dog. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. They were very dog friendly. It's so nice to bring him along with us to the lobby and enjoy some food and drinks. It was walking distance to M street. There's a dog park 2 minute walk away. Even a dog ER center down the block. After our stay we found out they were voted best staycation hotel in dc and we agree!

    I treated a friend to the Cherry Blossom Afternoon tea this past Sunday. We enjoyed the atrium, valet parking was $30, and customer service was good. However, the Fairmont was lacking ambience. We expected it to be decked out in cherry blossom theme decor since it was technically a special event. I enjoyed the sweet cherry desserts more than the savory ones. The $95 price point included only one 3-tier stand of small bites, one pot of tea and one glass of champagne. Ultimately, I did not think it was worth the price. I would probably try a different hotel for afternoon tea next time.

    The hotel is great. The staff members are nice. The lobby area has several places to visit or just chill. The hotel is a great venue for meetings as well. Foggy Bottom metro is a few blocks away. Guests can use the pool, gym, sauna & jacuzzi.

    Spent Veterans Day weekend here with family. The hotel was conveniently located. 2 metro stations (Farragut North and Foggy bottom) as well as the Georgetown neighborhood are 15 minutes away by foot. The interior was spacious, clean, bright and elegantly decorated. The staff members were professional, courteous and very helpful. Check-in was very smooth. The rooms were large and well-laid out with many amenities. They included Le Labo toiletries, bathrobes, comfy beds, plenty of clean towels, and streaming options. We also had free access to the Balance gym, pool, and hot tub, and courtyard. Check-out time is 1pm instead of the usual 11am. They will also stow luggage if you want to sightsee (before check-in or after check-out). We enjoyed relaxing at the lobby bar during happy hour (and got complimentary bar snacks) as well as the courtyard lounge fire pit in the late evening (over well-crafted cocktails).

    What a great location and the neighborhood feels so welcoming. Our room was very nice and comfortable. The main thing is sleep so our goal is to always have a comfortable bed, and this hotel delivered. We arrived early in the morning and I was afraid they would not let us check in, but they did.

    Does this hotel require key access to get to the floors with guest rooms?

    No it does not. The elevators go to the regular residential floors without restriction. Key card access is required to access the premium Fairmont Gold levels (9 and 10 I think).

That jetted tub was supposed to earn its keep. The room: genuinely beautiful. The technology: aggressively dated. The vibe: a 90s time capsule, complete with missing doorknobs. There was effort here, but it felt like the hotel was holding its breath, afraid any real investment might trigger the next recession. What they got right: The bellhops were fantastic. Warm, personable, fun. Truly the highlight. Most staff we interacted with were polite and willing to help, which made the gaps elsewhere even more confusing. What they got wrong (beyond the dated room and tech): For a hotel that loudly advertises luxury service, the customer experience fell flat. Outside of the arrival bowl of fruit, nothing felt elevated. Night two, we ordered pizza and planned a cozy Home Alone movie night. The technology made streaming impossible. Fine, cable it is. We called the concierge and asked for two plates. Just two. The answer was a flat no. We were told to walk down to the lobby restaurant and see if they might have plates "to spare." I'm sorry, what? The next morning, room service arrived... with someone else's order. It was corrected, but for a luxury hotel, that kind of miss is surprising. Housekeeping came through, but only halfway. The coffee and minibar were never restocked. In a suite. At a luxury hotel. This is table stakes. At 9:30 PM we stopped by the lobby circle bar. It was immediately clear the bartenders did not want to be there. I get it, service work is hard. Still, opening our interaction by warning us about last call at 11 set a strange tone. By 10:00, one bartender disappeared for 45 minutes. No refills. No check-in. No bill. Breaks are important. Coverage is also important, especially when you're selling a premium experience. Beyond the bellhops, much of the staff felt irritated to be present. Front desk to concierge, the energy was less "historic luxury hotel" and more "counting down the minutes." The hotel was also clearly prioritizing weekend tea and brunch revenue, to the point that the historic lobby was clogged with extra tables and largely unusable for actual hotel guests. Bottom line: this was not a luxury experience, and I would not recommend it. I'm only posting this publicly because I reached out directly to hotel management and never received a response. At that point, a review feels necessary.

Too bad stored blankets were unavailable for sleepers wanting more warmth than their traveling companions. We had to make a second request for one. May I also suggest providing more than one bar of mini soap bars. It's such a minuscule cost item but would obviate having to repeatedly move the precious one bar from sink to shower. We found the valet staff particularly helpful especially when navigating awkward arrivals and parking needs of our personal guests. Sean was a prince. He supervised an otherwise complicated set of logistics with competence and gentlemanly grace. Another shout out to the manager ( sou?) of the breakfast dining. We watched him rigorously oversee staff and guests while occasionally stepping in when helpful. His leadership is likely responsible for the professionalism of said staff. This is in direct contrast to the staff of the Willard across the street where we took the first breakfast of our stay. We were dismayed to have to endure extremely loud staff socializing, boisterous laughter and downright flirting. This type of behavior would have been unacceptable at the JWMarriott.

Upon welcome we received free Trolley tickets for one day and some food credits, probably based on our Bonvoy Status (we travel all the time). The price for a room I guess because of the multiple conventions in the place was excessive. I think for a room, not a suite, it would have ben $750 per night during the week. I thought that was a lot so we used points, and the 1st night they had not held our King Room for us, and despite being our anniversary, we had to sleep in a double room and move the next day. Unfortunately, the double room was quiet, and the King Room had an adjoining door and we heard every little thing from the room next door. I would put this down one point, but the service, staffing and helpful Concierge made this place really nice for us.
