Reviews for Fairmont San Francisco
Seen better days
Old and dated. The ambience is long gone. No handrails in the bathroom. No stand alone shower. In room menu was uninteresting. No desert available. Nowhere to plug in electronics next to your bedside. Check in looked rough. Obsolete hotel. Needs a major overhaul. Great staff however they can't make up for an aging hotel trying to hold on to its past. Would not stay here again

Great location and upscale hotel in the City
We lived in the city for over a decade before leaving a few years ago. We come back quite a bit, usually as a day trip but we wanted to stay overnight so we stayed here and were really pleased. Staff was professional and friendly. Service was good. Room was upgraded and had a stunning view over the city. The location is very good IMO. Walking to Union Square shopping involves a very steep descent and incline back so unless you’re used to that, you might want to take an Uber/Lyft. We are used to walking around the city and it was fine. Safe to walk. Only had bfast in the hotel and they were out of the fresh croissants so can’t comment though the yogurt w/ house made granola was good. The reason I docked them 1 star is my app showed the resort/city fee included a few things, including one beverage from the mini bar (dollar limit). That’s the only reason we took a sparkling water from there. Upon checkout, was told I owed that $8 or whatever it was from the mini bar and they did charge me. Frustrating.

Justin was amazing!
Wonder experience with Justin! What an excellent employee you have behind the bar at the Fairmont in SF. He made our evening twice the experience we hoped for.

Staff at Cirque
Fabrics and Alma at the Cirque room were wonderful. They were much more personable than the weekend staff.
