18+ Hotels In Fairfax, Virginia

A diverse Northern Virginia hotspot just outside Washington DC, Fairfax mixes global eats, student energy, and easy access to the capital. These 18+ hotels roll out a no-drama check-in - just bring yourself and your bag.

Fairfax has a mix of history, campus life, and low-key fun that makes it a solid stop in Northern Virginia. With George Mason University at its core, you’ll find concerts, college sports, and plenty of student-friendly hangouts alongside trails and parks for a quick outdoor escape. Annual events like Fall for the Book add a creative edge, while the local food and music scene keeps things interesting year-round.

For under-21 travelers, the hotel scene is very limited. Only a small handful of 18+ friendly options exist, so planning ahead is key. We’ve rounded up the ones that actually welcome younger guests, making it easier to lock in a stay without the age restriction headaches.
