Top George Mason University Hotel Reviews

Sonesta ES Suites Fairfax Fair Lakes

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place to stay."

Holiday Inn Express Fairfax - Arlington Boulevard by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"There aren't enough stars to convey our appreciation to the management of the Holiday Inn Express Fairfax. We arrived on an evening when the hotel was packed with guests for a soccer tournament. I had inadvertently booked the wrong day online and we were stressed having rushed into town to be with a relative in the hospital. The manager worked his magic and somehow found us a beautiful room, insured we had the booking for 2 nights and was extremely kind by also including a discount. We're hoping we don't find it necessary to be near Fairfax Hospital on Gallows Rd. anytime again soon. But should the need arise, we surely know exactly where we will be staying - The Holiday Inn Express Fairfax... If I could I've give you 10 stars!"

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing value for the price! Room had everything you could need. Fitness center was clean and useful. Breakfast buffet had a lot of options, and the food was good. Staff was helpful and available. The only thing I could wish for was a hot tub. This time of year, it would be nice, but they had it closed. However, I will definitely stay here next time I'm in town."
