Fairfax JW Marriott
News provided by Marriott International, Inc. | September 16, 2025
Reston has officially arrived on the global stage of luxury hospitality. The brand-new JW Marriott Reston Station has opened its doors, marking the iconic hotel bra nd’s debut in Virginia — and reshaping the future of luxury accommodations, fine dining, and events in the Washington, D.C. region.
A Landmark for Reston and Northern Virginia
Perched above the Silver Line’s Wiehle-Reston East Station, this 247-room hotel is more than just a place to stay. It anchors Reston Station, a 90-acre master-planned community that has quickly become home to major employers like Google, Rolls-Royce, Spotify, and ICF International.
Guests are treated to sweeping views stretching from Northern Virginia to Bethesda, making this property a natural magnet for business travelers, international visitors, and locals seeking a luxury staycation.
Personally, one of the things I love about this location is how easy it is to step outside, walk around Reston Station’s restaurants and shops, grab a bite to eat, or hop on the Metro. In just minutes, you can be in Tysons Corner, downtown D.C., or straight to Dulles International Airport. That blend of walkability and connectivity makes this hotel’s setting unmatched.
And if you’ve ever dreamed of living right next to all this energy? You can. Check out this luxury condo for sale at Reston Station — it’s literally steps from the JW Marriott and all the restaurants, shopping, and Metro access.
The Mindful Rooms: A First for the Brand
Perhaps the most exciting debut is the Mindful Rooms concept — the first of its kind in the world.
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with calming natural light.
- Spa-inspired bathrooms.
- A serene wellness alcove with yoga mats, recovery tools, and circadian lighting.
- Customizable rituals like bespoke tea service and tailored turndown experiences.
These rooms are crafted for travelers who want more than a bed — they want rest, rejuvenation, and intention woven into every detail.
Three Distinct Culinary Destinations
- The Simon – A refined Mid-Atlantic restaurant with French and Mediterranean touches.
- Schar Bar – A modern lounge offering bespoke cocktails and an extensive wine program.
- JW Market – A vibrant café led by Executive Pastry Chef Claus Olsen, serving artisanal breads, sandwiches, and pastries.
Guests can also enjoy the JW Garden, which grows herbs and produce used in the hotel’s menus — a nod to the brand’s wellness-driven philosophy.

Art and Architecture That Tell a Story
The hotel isn’t just a destination; it’s part of the Reston Station cultural experience. Guests are welcomed by Building Bridges, a monumental sculpture by Italian artist Lorenzo Quinn. The piece features six interlocking hands symbolizing wisdom, love, faith, and connection — themes that perfectly capture both Reston’s founding vision and JW Marriott’s ethos of mindful unity.

It validates Reston Station as one of the premier mixed-use destinations in the D.C. metro area.
-
It signals that Northern Virginia’s luxury hospitality market is no longer overshadowed by D.C. or Tysons Corner.
-
And it brings the JW Marriott legacy home to a region that is experiencing explosive growth in tech, business, and culture.
