Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott South Bend at Notre Dame

Nice hotel that gets the job done

Staff was very welcoming, friendly, helpful and accommodating upon arrival. Hotel is very nice, rooms are a little dated, but clean and comfortable. Location is perfect for anything at the Notre Dame campus.

Great location. Rooms are run down and need a refreshing.

I dont stay in many hotels so I dont have alot to compare it too but I thought it was great

Beware....we booked a king room, got told we'd been upgraded and got to our room and it was two queens and bathroom with a bath!!! I have a bad back and struggle getting into a bath. When we complained they would do nothing about it!!! Also my pillow had such an awful smell about it...not sure what it was! Very very disappointed!!!

Hotel was nicely acquainted. Only problem we encountered was getting the handicap bathroom but it worked fine just needed extra towels, which the facility provided. Rooms were clean, fitness area was nice. Pool wasn’t operational when we were there. A hot tub would be a nice addition.

Across the street from Notre Dame

Was disappointed by our stay. All started with our toilet being clogged by the previous guest. Hotel staff was kind enough to give us a plunger, but made us plunge it ourselves. I wouldn’t expect that service at the cheapest motels, let alone here. Bathroom shower was slow to drain and shower head was loose, so either you had to kneel to shower or be directly against the wall to have shower spray. Wasn’t told about paying for parking either, but luckily saw that from reviews. Second night there were no spots left so we had to find street parking and walk despite paying. Can’t imagine how this goes football weekends. Would not stay here again, and with football surge pricing this is highly overpriced to the point of being a joke.

Excellent and clean

Great stop to check out the college.

The hotel is in a great location! It is close to the University of Notre Dame-we easily walked to the campus.

Typically had to wait several minutes for front desk staff to appear if they did at all. Not sure where they are. Rarely there. Never been to a hotel where no one is there even during check in hours. People standing in lobby waiting to check in with their luggage for several minutes. One customer found the manager phone number and called him cause he was waiting so long. Also once there the staff complained that the computer system is always slow and management won’t do anything about it even though it is a known long standing problem.

Everything was great except the pillows!

Great

Very clean and ideal location.

I hardly ever write reviews, but I wish I had been warned how difficult an experience this would be. We rented a suite with 2 queen beds and a sofa bed for 2 nights, but were only given 1 towel and 1/4 roll of toilet paper. When I called to ask for more I was told to come down to the front desk to get more. However actually finding someone at the front desk to help was frustrating and proved impossible. The 3 different times we went down to find more towels and toilet paper, the “away from desk” sign was displayed and we could not find an employee to help. I ended up tracking down a cleaning cart and getting them myself. Additionally, when the sofa bed was set up, it extended into the furniture opposite it making it impossible to access the bathroom without climbing onto the bed. For a room that cost almost $800 for 2 nights, these oversights and lack of attentiveness seem very unfair. The bright spot was the convenient location and the breakfast attendant who was very kind and went out of his way to help me. Overall this seemed like an understaffed facility with poor space planning that survives due to its excellent location.

Great hotel- convenient to Notre Dame University.

thanks

the only thing missing was a dining room. that wwould have been good

Great close location to Notre Dame, however was surprised to learn of the overnight parking charge AFTER checking out. New hotel, very nice, etc.
