Perhaps the Fairmont could be located closer to a DC Metro stop, or maybe a shorter walk to either the Mall or Georgetown, but beyond that there is nothing I can think of that would make it any better than it is.
The bar did advertise a 'Happy Hour' but when we went to take advantage of it were told that it only applied on weekdays and not the weekend. Boo. They held two Christmas receptions in the lobby lounge that would have been more convenient to non-receptionguests had they been held elsewhere in the hotel.....but these are very minor faults in an otherwise typically satisfiede experience. If only I could afford the Savoy or the Plaza.

“Great Hotel”
Stayed on the Fairmont Gold Level... was worth the extra money, staff was great! They were welcoming and really attentative to anythign that you needed. Our rooms were wonderfully designed and they were luxurious. The only downside was that the walls were paper thin in one of the rooms but besides that it was a fabulous stay.

“Great location”
The Fairmont's room was clean, quiet and comfortable. My wife claimed to have the best sleep ever in a hotel. We walked the DC monuments by moonlight and breakfasted in Georgetown - no need for a car.
