Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Barrie

We stay in Barrie often but this was our first time at this hotel. The staff were exceptional: both friendly and professional. We had one of the best welcome/check-in experiences and were also granted an early check-in. The included breakfast had the best variety of any Barrie hotel we've visited. Our room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The bathroom was spotless and they provided proper bath-sized towels. Price often drives our final hotel decision but if the Barrie Fairfield is in the ballpark as it was this time we'll definitely be back.

It was great experience. I always stay at Marriott and its brand. We stayed here for 2 days. Housekeeping was nice. The 1st day room was not comfortable but Manager changed it. Front office manager with beautiful turban and smile + Jaspreet and other staff were cooperative- thanks everyone , breakfast quality was good but if more fruit could be added would be excellent , the staff at breakfast restaurant were v helpful + please get the hot tub done soon, hopefully in our next visit, Hot tub will be operational

Overall great experience at this hotel. We came as a hockey team and I was impressed that they allowed us to use the dining area for a team meeting space. This is what made the weekend a blast for kids and parents alike. Rooms were probably not cleaned the way I would do it in my own home, but it was ok for a hotel.

I came with two children. Obviously the only reason we came was the pool. Well it was closed at 9 pm last night. We thought it would be open until ten. But went up and went to bed with plans to come down first thing in the am. We had breakfast which was mediocre then changed and went to pool to find it was closed! A sign on the door. This would have been beneficial to know upon checking in as we would have cancelled and went somewhere else. We dealt with the cracked lights in hallways, stained carpets, marked up walls etc all these little things could go unnoticed if the kids got to swim. So horrible. Completely and utterly unsatisfactory.

When calling I was told they didn’t have a manager in at the moment this was around 5pm then when we arrived we went togo to the” heated” pool. Went into the pool in 8 months pregnant currently and it was freezing cold water I asked them they said they turned heater off when we went in 8:15-8:20 pm pool closes at 9 the heater shouldn’t have been turned off. Later the same front desk girl says she’ll have it on for the morning for us to swim. We wake up we go to the pool and it’s closed for health reasons that she just simply couldn’t explain and says the heater is on though not sure how this helps me if you can’t swim in it says it’ll be up and running afternoon then changes her answer to evening. Overall disappointing and the service wasn’t as great as it was the first time coming here.
