• Excellent location.
• Did not see a gift shop.

“The location was in the perfect setting. The staff was helpful and friendly. The food was average. The room was nicer than I expected. I was pleasantly surprised by having the use of a fully equipped laundry with washer and dryer.”

“Overall great hotel with the exception of the room service mistakes and not having what was on the menu. I still would stay there again.”

• Beautiful setting with easy access back & forth to highways.
• Seemed to be poorly managed. I was on a sold-out floor; my companion was on an empty floor.

“The hotel itself is a very nice property, obviously catering almost exclusively to business travelers. It is well appointed, despite the somewhat embarrassing and antiquated . This hotel was undergoing some light renovations, but were hardly noticeable. Restaurant, for some reason, had gravy without biscuits, but was otherwise a standard Marriott buffet. Most annoying was that the hotel placed people so close to one another despite having loads of empty rooms. Far too few people get a good night's sleep when this is the case. Parking is free, but limited out front, and the garage is not exactly nearby. You'll want to pull the car around, as it's a long cold walk in winter.”

• Convenient access to work.
• Room had odor of mold, parking not well lit.

“For a 3-star hotel, this hotel does lack some basics. They are currently under construction which led the parking to be limited. I had to park in the garage which entailed walking around the building courtyard with basically no lighting. It is not a good set up for a single woman especially knowing there was an assailant in the area who had attacked someone in the same town the night prior. They could at least have a security guard and more lights. As far as my room, it had an odor of mold. I think for an upscale hotel that they should look into a better filtration system so that their guests do not need to be exposed to this noxious odor.”

• The lobby and public areas were very attractive and functional.
• The food in the restaurant was sub-par and was only a buffet.

“In general the hotel rooms are very comfortable and as expected, however the menu, selection and quality of the food was marginal. They are in the process of changing their menu according to signs, so this may be only a transition issue.”

• Comfortable beds and spacious rooms.
• Servers/bartenders couldn't care less about service; probably because there's no place else to go.

“Beautiful entranceway and common rooms, tucked in a parkland setting near the Capital Beltway. Guest rooms are spacious and well maintained. Bedding is comfortable. Parking is difficult; garage is confusing and leaves you a long way from the guest room elevators. Forget the bar/restaurant. Staffs are way too self-absorbed and have probably never heard of "customer service". There are no alternatives within walking distance.”

• Cleanliness, quiet.
• It was as far away from where I wanted to be as you could get in the zone.

“Enjoyed the hotel but the traffic was terrible due to where I had to commute to. It was only 10 miles but took 45+ minutes.”

• I liked the large, flat screen TV, the comfortable bed, the late check out option and the cleanliness.
• The food at the hotel bar/restaurant.

“In all I feel this was a great value! The room was comfortable and clean. The only thing was that it was a little bit hard to find because it is sort of hidden. On the other hand it was very quiet and peaceful, there no traffic noise etc.”

• Perfectly maintained, fresh, clean, luxurious bedding, Professional, friendly staff. Great breakfast restaurant. Convenient location and parking.
• Extra fees for wireless and charges for using business office computer. Great property in everyway.

“All praise for this Marriott property. This is a wonderful example of hospitality with professional friendly staff and wonderful accommodations. Recently renovated, all areas of the hotel are fresh, clean, sophisticated and modern. All non-smoking, the rooms are fresh, bright and clean and beautifully furnished with dark woods, granite computer desks, deep rich colored fabrics and wide flat screen TVs in every room. The luxurious soft beds and fine bed linens are a dream. Nice spa amenities are provided in bath. Exercise and pool areas are good. Convenience store offers coffee, bagels - fresh fruit, ice cream, snacks and sundries. Convenient free garage parking is on site. Many excellent restaurants of all types are nearby - within 1 mile, but you'll need a car to get to them because of the highways. Also nearby: Fairfax Hospital, Tysons Malls, movie theater, Merrifield, Dulles access, Wolf Trap Park. Free shuttle service to nearby Metro Dunn Loring station and shopping mall makes getting to DC business or sightseeing destinations and Tysons premier shopping areas easy! Conveniently located off Beltway in Fairview business park. Lovely landscaped business area makes for an attractive early morning outdoor jog. One negative, extra fee is charged for wireless access or for using computer/business office. This is one of my favorite Marriotts and one we'll return to again.”

• Way comfortable!
• Deluxe room was not deluxe, just regular with no extra space.

“It ended up being a beautiful room. The description was quite misleading in that it stated it was a deluxe room with an additional 300 ft of living space. There was no additional living space besides a regular hotel room with two double beds. We had two children with us and need extra space. Disappointed in the description, but my disgruntled feelings were subsided by the plush accommodations.”

• Ample parking and good location.
• Food in restaurant was average to below, internet access $10 per day (free elsewhere) in room and extremely overpriced in the business center.

“Beautiful hotel. The food in their main restaurant was disappointing and expensive - not what I would expect from a full-service Marriott. The hotel location is a bit isolated, but not too far from falls church downtown and Mclean/Tysons corner. Although most hotels don't charge for internet access this hotel charges around $10 per day. And you can't buy just one day without the hassle of calling the front desk, and then they still charged me for my entire stay anyway. Most hotels have free business centers, but theirs was outrageously expensive - which explains why it was empty while I was there. Overall this is a very nice hotel and I would stay here again.”

• Very comfortable and clean.
• Inconvenient if you don't have a car.

“The Marriott Fairview Park was clean and very upscale. It is in a business park (or near one) and if you don't want to eat at the hotel's restaurants there is an Italian restaurant and a Chinese place in the foot court of the business park where you can eat dinner easily for around $6.00. There is a free shuttle from the metro to the hotel, though it doesn't run past 8:30 p.m. The time from the hotel to downtown DC was only about 30 minutes. The subway seemed to run every 5 minutes or so. When I first got there and called the hotel the clerk told me the wrong place to wait for the shuttle, so I did have to wait a bit.”

“This hotel is close enough to DC to make it a great choice. It was extremely clean, comfortable and has an indoor/outdoor pool that was wonderful. It felt very safe and staff was helpful and polite. It is not walking distance to anything but it's a short drive to pretty much anything you might need or want to do.”

• The facility is very nice and the location is great.
• I do not like the fact that this hotel charges extra for Internet access.

“Great hotel, great location. Rooms are nicely appointed and the beds/bedding is very nice. Staff is friendly. There is a small surface lot and a large garage for self parking, but the garage is not convenient to the hotel lobby and elevators to sleeping rooms. Room service is available, and there is a bar and a couple of restaurants on site. There is also a small gift shop that sells star bucks coffee and pastries. The location is convenient to Tyson's Corner and the beltway. There are no off-site retail establishments within walking distance but there are several shopping centers a short drive away. A car is required if you want to go anywhere outside of the hotel. There is a shuttle bus service available.”

• The indoor -outdoor pool was great for us and the grandchildren.
• We had to wait longer than expected for the shuttle car driver to take us to the metro.

“We came here with our daughter, her husband and our 2 grandchildren. We enjoyed the pool facilities and the overall cooperativeness of the staff. The place was clean and comfortable and it met our expectations. The staff helped us in any way they could, even paying for our taxi when our shuttle car driver was struck in traffic.”

“This is an excellent hotel, in a wonderful location. If you don't have your own vehicle, they have a shuttle available to take you either to the metro station or to local shopping areas. Would highly recommend this to anyone - family friendly, business travelers, etc.”

• The ground of this hotel is well manicured and pleasing to the senses.
• Although it advertised internet availability, the hotel did not disclose that it costs $10 per day.

“My only gripe with this hotel was the size and location of the room. For two adults and three children (all under eight years old), I think we should have been given a larger room. Also, the room was located on the second floor along with some conference room and service rooms (although separated).”

• It was new, clean and had a great bed.
• They put us in a handicap room. It made the bathroom less than desirable.

“It is away from o.k. But they have a shuttle to the metro. You can get anywhere from there. The bed was very comfortable but don't let them put you in a handicap room unless you are handicapped. The vanity space was very small.”

• Its location was perfect for the dc area.
• When I booked the room I selected smoking, when I got there it was all non smoking. The pool is only open till 11pm, and work out area was just ok.

“I would do my homework before staying in another Marriott. I expected the pool and work out facilities to be open later, and the rooms were not as big as I expected. For close to the same price I could have stayed in an embassy suites with bigger rooms, closer location, and smoking available.”

• They didn't have a bell boy for my entire luggage coming or going and I wasn't feeling well and needed the help.

“The Marriott at Fairview park was beautifully situated you felt as though you were in a garden area. The grounds were beautiful! The staff was very friendly! Everything was very pretty and clean. The bed was pretty good for a hotel. My only complaint it there wasn't a bell boy to help with my luggage coming or going. Overall I really enjoyed my stay and would do it again! It just had a nice feel to it!”

• I very much like the front desk staff. They are always wonderful and courteous. Also the maid service is very good.
• There is a continuous disconnect with the restaurant. The people greeting have been surely on numerous occasions and do not make guests feel welcome.

“It is a shame that the hotel restaurant continues to be a disappointment. We frequently eat at the Marriott where there is Shoals and we think it is top notch and outstanding every time. Recently, there was no one in the restaurant and we went in for lunch at 1. We ended up leaving for many reasons. The hotel staff again, with the exception of the restaurant is all great.”

• This was a very attractive hotel; the lobby and common areas were very nice but the comfort of the bed and the room was even more attractive.
• Through no fault of the hotel it was slightly out of the area I was looking for but the quite professional atmosphere made up for the slight drive.

“This was a very attractive hotel located in a park like setting. The main lobby; restaurant and bar were nicely appointed and most of all the comfort of the rooms themselves made a very relaxing stay.”

• The room was very well appointed and clean. Quite a nice room, indeed.
• Our room was noisy! We could hear every bit of conversation, snores, and other gutturals from the adjoining room.

“Located in a rustic, tree lined area in falls church, van; this hotel will meet most of your needs whether on business or pleasure. Although, a restaurant is on site, I would suggest driving a short distance to some of the local venues for food as the selection at the hotel is somewhat limited and institutional. Do not expect complimentary breakfast here. Very comfortable rooms with the exception of being somewhat noisy! Request non-adjoining rooms at the least.”

• Great quiet location, good room service, clean, quiet.
• Sign pointing to hotel from Fairview blvd should be bigger/brighter a little hard to see.

“Great, upscale hotel in a safe part of town, within easy access to the beltway (495), but far enough from the noise of the interstate. Try to arrive in the day, because it is in what appears to be a business park with lots of trees, and could be difficult to find at night (for some reason, the bright Marriott sign is not seen very well from Fairview blvd).”
