FAIRFIELD INN & SUITES BY MARRIOTT CHARLOTTE AIRPORT, Charlotte

The hotel is 3 km from Charlotte Douglas International Airport and 8 km from Truist Stadium. Freeway access puts downtown Charlotte (15 minutes) and attractions like Bank of America Stadium (10 km) and Mint Museum Uptown (10 km) within reach. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and feels safe for walking, with guests consistently noting the convenience for flight connections and vehicle-free city access via the on-demand shuttle.

The guest rooms are clean and spacious, featuring air conditioning, heating, a work desk, carpeted floors, a wardrobe, and a TV. The private bathroom includes a hairdryer, and the shower is noted for good pressure and space. Some rooms have a seating area, while suites add a sofa bed, microwave, and additional counter space. Road-facing rooms can be noisier, so a room on the quieter side is recommended for light sleepers. A standout feature is the room layout: the bed is positioned away from the door, which minimizes disturbance from hallway noise.

Breakfast is included and served as a buffet. The offering includes scrambled eggs, turkey sausage or similar, a self-serve waffle maker, fresh fruit such as berries and bananas, oatmeal, and a juice machine. The breakfast area uses disposable plates, cups, and cutlery. Coffee is available and consistently praised for taste. The hotel has no on-site restaurant or bar, but several dining options - Starbucks, Chipotle, Panera, and a wing restaurant - are a short walk away. Alcohol (wine and beer) is available for purchase at the front desk.

The seasonal outdoor swimming pool is heated and open during warmer months, with pool/beach towels, sun loungers, and umbrellas provided. The fitness centre is basic but adequate for a morning workout. The hotel also features a patio area with fire pits and a hot chocolate bar, offering a comfortable space to relax outside the room.

WiFi is free throughout the property. The 24-hour front desk offers express check-in/check-out and can assist with shuttle scheduling. The free airport shuttle runs from 4:30 AM to 11 PM and is available by calling the hotel when ready for pickup. A park-and-fly option is available with the shuttle.
