Sonesta ES Suites Fairfax Fair Lakes

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was welcoming, professional, and incredibly helpful. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and I was even offered a complimentary upgrade, which was a lovely surprise. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was incredibly cozy, the linens felt luxurious, and the view from my window was absolutely stunning. Housekeeping did a fantastic job every day, always leaving the room fresh and tidy. The hotel amenities were also top-notch — the fitness center was well-equipped, the spa was serene and relaxing, and the on-site restaurant served delicious meals with great variety. Breakfast each morning was a real highlight, with a wide range of fresh options to suit every taste. Location-wise, the hotel couldn’t be better situated. It was close to everything I needed — shops, restaurants, and key attractions — but still felt quiet and peaceful at night. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way.

Amazing location. Beautiful property with lots of amenities. Hannah is amazing and super accommodating to guests needs. The entire staff was helpful and friendly. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great, with the perfect hours of operation. They even served some non-pork items during my stay. Plenty of parking available, and felt very safe and comfortable there. Walking distance to restaurants and shops was a nice surprise.

The location is very convenient; it is right next to several restaurants and was also close to the Eagle Bank arena, which is why I was there. The rooms are very large, clean, and comfortable. The property is well-kept and is quiet. I would stay here again if I were to return to Fairfax.

The hotel is always beautiful and clean. Easy access to the rooms with all safety measures set. The fact that there is a kitchenette in the rooms saves on having to go out to eat and spend extra money. This will be my go-to place whenever I'm in the area. Sonesta definitely lives up to their name and reputation.

The staff were wonderful and the value for what we got was excellent. The front desk was friendly and anxious to help with any need. Our room was spacious for my husband and I, and while we didn’t need the kitchen area, it was a great option. While I saw other reviewers unhappy about the breakfast, we were completely perplexed as to why! We thought it was perfect! Eggs (both scrambled and hard-boiled), meat and potatoes along with pancakes, cereals, oatmeal, yogurt, fresh fruit and more. The breakfast employees were vigilant and ready to re-stock anything or help. Overall, it was a great stay. And we would definitely stay again without hesitation.
