Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriot Richmond-Ashland: Guests’ Favorite Home Away From Home

With an excellent overall rating on Tripadvisor, the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriot Richmond-Ashland knows how to welcome their guests with legendary hospitality.

The pet-friendly property consists of 103 beautiful and spacious rooms – 32 king rooms, 45 queen rooms, and 15 executive king and 11 queen suites featuring an elegant archway leading into the living room with a comfortable pull-out sofa. A fridge, microwave, and coffee maker are available in each room, but guests love the many food options found within the hotel.

“We are one of the few Fairfield Inns that have a bar area within the hotel,” says Dave Johnson, General Manager. “Beer, wine, and appetizers are a huge hit with our guests especially if the weather conditions are bad and guests don’t want to leave.”

In addition to the bar, a market area to buy snacks and drink is available to guests who crave late-night snacks or meals to prepare in their rooms. In the morning, guests enjoy a free hot and fresh breakfast to help start their day.

Alice Liu, a recent guest at the Fairfield Inn, stated in her review that the breakfast had more than just delicious foods. “Gwen, the breakfast server, was busy caring for everyone like a mother: friendly, proactively helpful, and was even making waffles and serving everyone. I’ve never been to a hotel breakfast buffet where there was such service!”

Dave and his team take great pride in serving their guests with the utmost service. In mid-January, the Ashland area had a huge snowstorm. Guests and team members alike were stuck within the hotel, but that didn’t a put damper on the atmosphere inside.

“We had a big group stay, and they were enjoying the various in-hotel amenities to pass the time. Some of my team members, however, had to stay overnight in the hotel due to the road conditions. Even though they were technically off-duty, they made sure the guests were having a great time in spite of the weather,” says Dave.

Fairfield Inn has a state-of-the-art fitness center, conference room, and a perfect indoor pool with four fountains that continuously shoot streams of warm water arcing into the pool.

There is so much to indulge in while staying at the hotel, and there are just as many attractions within the surrounding area which include:

  • Kings Dominion Amusement Park
  • Bass Pro Shop
  • Variety of restaurants – Mexican, Mediterranean, American, and more
  • Shopping centers
  • State Fairs

“Our hotel is super close to a lot of different venues and Richmond,” says Dave. “Whether you are going on a day trip to see the historic areas around us like Williamsburg and the Historic Triangle, having a weekend getaway to the mountains, or enjoying the variety of wine tours and wineries nearby, the hotel’s unique design and excellent service is ready to accommodate for you.”

Thank you to the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriot Richmond-Ashland for providing guests with remarkable hospitality and experiences.
