Four star hotel at best. MetLife who owns this facility is NOT a hospitality company and it shows. Read less

My experience was amazing. It is located in the heart of Georgetown. Well appointed. Stylish. Comfy pillows. The workout club was nice. The hotel hosted a conference, and the staff was extremely responsive. The food was delicious. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Was treated very well by everyone that worked at this facility. The rooms were beautiful and clean. The breakfast buffet was very nice. The only complaint is that the swimming pool closes early and the food prices at Juniper are a bit high. We will definitely stay again.

I had the pleasure of staying at the Fairmont hotel in Georgetown for a birthday visit to DC. The hotel was stunning and very clean. I was upgraded to the Gold floor which was a pleasant surprise. The check in process was easy and smooth. When I walked into the room I was greeted by a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a happy birthday cupcake and a card. Later that evening we received a fresh basket of fruit, fairmont chocolate bar and water. All of the staff were kind and accommodating. I look forward to staying here again. Read less

I really enjoyed my stay! Lovely hotel, great location, good food, friendly staff, and a comfortable room! What more could one ask for? Oh, and the runners' station with cold water and towels after my early morning run was such a lovely surprise!!
