Embassy Visit

Perfect location for our visit. Our room was very spacious and furnished perfectly! Thankful the valet attendants were understanding and allowed us multiple trips back to our vehicle. Loved the overall feel of this hotel. The breakfast was expensive for the food available on the buffet... but that is the only negative thing I have to say. We would definitely stay here again!

This is a very nice hotel in a great location. Staff is helpful and professional. My problem is with their hidden fees. They advertise overnight parking for $52 but there is an "amenity fee" of $25. All that plus taxes add up to about $90 per night.

I like the breakfast place with options even the whole day, even though I did not use it. Also the happy hour a bit early 3 pm, would like more like 5-7 because at 3 you are probably out in your own business, that I have the chance to use however. Room was excellent, ample and lots of space to relax and work. In view of the virus, I would recommend to sanitize the TV control, phone, and tables in the room, a lot of precaution is never enough in these situation. Thanks for everything.

Flott beliggenhet, men et noe slitt hotell

Fantastisk beliggenhet i byen. Gåavstand til mange av de beste severdighetene i byen og til George town, hvor det finnes mange gode restauranter og barer. Noe slitt og gammelt hotell, men vennlig personell og service. Dårlige frokostmuligheter på hotellet, men mange ok steder i nærheten hvor man kan få frokost.

The Fairfax is a genteel property in a fabulous location. I loved it. I love the wall paper, the carpeting, the art. The staff is super nice and responsive. I would say there are a couple of little things...there was caulking dried on the tub floor, little things like that which I'm only mentioning as a hotel reviewer. My husband and I both know we will stay here again!
