Fairmont San Francisco reviews
“New SF Favorite”
LikedGorgeous building. Rooms felt large with high ceilings. Big closet. Great location.
DislikedNo late night bar
“We’ll visit again.”
LikedIt’s a beautiful historical property. Fantastic staff, great in room breakfast.
DislikedThere’s nothing the hotel can do about it but I wish the guests would dress more appropriately for an elegant hotel.
“A magical, romantic and a fairytale experience!”
LikedGorgeous! Regal! From the moment we pulled up, my door was being opened and bags taken from the trunk. Excellent service at front desk. This hotel is stunning!! First time there and pics online do not do justice! It's walking distance to so much too! The room was large, elegant and super comfortable . The bartenders were excellent!
“A once in a lifetime experience to spend a couple nights in a Fairmont suite with unbeatable views from the Golden…”
LikedWhat’s not to like? It’s the Fairmont after-all. Historic, beautiful, and unlike any other property in The City.
Disliked$300 incidental fee in an already expensive city may not fit everyone’s budget. Yes, of course it’s not a Motel 6 and $300 is literally nothing to most of the people who stay there. As a regular working-class person, however, it’s got me checking my bank account hoping to see that money back asap.
“I watched The Golden Girls show in bed then slept like a baby.”
LikedBeautiful property, great location, excellent staff, easy check in and check out. Room was comfortable.
DislikedThe snack I purchased from the minibar was stale. No bathrobe in the room.
“Best stay at Hotel ever!”
LikedThe manager upgraded our room at no cost to suite w/ view. All the staff at hotel were phenomenal!
LikedStaying at the Fairmont is always elevated traveling.
