Location

The Fairmont San Francisco boasts a prime location atop Nob Hill, offering incredible views of the city and the bay. Guests rave about the hotel's nice roof garden and the view from it, as well as the view of the bay and the city from their rooms. The location is described as perfect for visiting San Francisco's top tourist attractions, including Chinatown, Fisherman’s Wharf and the cable car routes, which conveniently stop just outside the hotel. Though some mention the steep hills making it hard to walk everywhere, the hotel's central location is still deemed excellent with some guests even calling it an iconic landmark of the bay. Overall, the quality of the hotel, its location atop the hill and the surrounding area are highly praised, making this a top choice for travelers looking for a well-located and stunning hotel in San Francisco.

Breakfast

The Fairmont San Francisco offers a delicious breakfast that guests have raved about. Although there were no continental options, guests enjoyed the food and coffee with some even describing it as "so good." Breakfasts at the Laurel Court and Tonga Room were also highlights. However, some guests expressed outrage at the expensive pricing of breakfast with one even paying $35 for a bottle of water on their first day. Despite this, most guests were pleased with the breakfast and found it to be excellent along with the rooms and exceptional service.

Rooms

The Fairmont San Francisco is a beautiful hotel that boasts luxurious and spacious rooms. Guests loved the comfortable and clean beds and many were upgraded to rooms with stunning views of the city skyline, the bay or Alcatraz. While some guests noted that the rooms were outdated and in need of renovation, others appreciated the classic, old-fashioned charm of the hotel. The hotel's location and lobby were also praised by guests. However, there were some negative comments, including small rooms without views, missing amenities like slippers and shower caps, dirty carpets or furniture and rooms that had a smell or were not properly cleaned. Despite these issues, most guests enjoyed their stay at the Fairmont San Francisco and found the views, comfort and amenities to be top notch.

Cleanliness

Fairmont San Francisco is a classy hotel that stands out with its cleanliness. The rooms are overall very tidy and comfortable with no lack of attention to detail in terms of decor and cleanliness. While some guests experienced issues such as dirty sofas or malfunctioning elevators, the staff was excellent in taking care of their needs and the majority of guests found the facility impeccable. The historic nature of the hotel did not detract from the cleanliness or comfort of the rooms and even the public spaces such as bathrooms and the gym were pleasingly fresh. The concierge and cleaning staff went above and beyond in ensuring guests' satisfaction and any minor issues such as empty lotion bottles or forgotten replenishments were dealt with promptly. Overall, Fairmont San Francisco is a hotel that stands out for its cleanliness and attention to detail with guests generally very satisfied with the maintenance and upkeep of the facility.

Staff

From the friendly valet and bell hop to the helpful concierge, the staff truly goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. Many guests rave about the amazing customer service they received with comments like "incredibly friendly and helpful" and "staff was amazing" being common. The hotel's prime location is matched by its exceptional staff, who are often described as friendly, attentive, professional and accommodating. However, a handful of guests did note some negatives, such as a lack of staff to assist with luggage upon arrival or an unhelpful concierge. Despite these minor issues, the overwhelming majority of guests were impressed by the friendly and helpful staff at Fairmont San Francisco.

Wi-Fi

Guests at the Fairmont San Francisco have mixed reviews about the wifi provided by the hotel. Several guests were disappointed to find that there was no free wifi available and that they had to pay a daily fee of $14 or $30 for internet access, which they found to be an absurd charge. Some guests mentioned that the internet was terrible or super slow, making it difficult for them to work or stay connected. However, a few guests did find the speed of the wifi to be around 20mbps, which was satisfactory. Despite the negative comments, there were a few positive notes about the wifi service, such as a guest not having to pay for internet service for the past five years and the reception helping them join the Accor membership to obtain free wifi. Overall, while some guests found the wifi service to be useless and the reception uninterested, there were a few options available to access free or satisfactory internet during their stay.

Parking

While there were mixed feelings about the parking situation at Fairmont San Francisco, some guests highly praised the organization and efficiency of the valet service. However, many found the fees for parking to be quite high and unexpected with some expressing frustration about missing flights due to vehicle retrieval delays. Some guests also noted that valet staffing seemed to be lacking, resulting in long wait times for both luggage and parking. Despite concerns about pricing, many guests still highly recommended the hotel overall, but some suggested that providing complimentary parking could be a way to further enhance the guest experience.

Family

The Fairmont San Francisco is a fantastic hotel for families traveling with children. The spacious rooms comfortably accommodate large families, up to 5 people. Several family members were fortunate enough to have tower rooms overlooking the bay, providing stunning views. While some guests had to pay a charge to guarantee rooms next to each other, it's well worth it to create the perfect family vacation. Although the hotel doesn't have a pool for kids to splash around in, it's still a great place to have friends meet up. The hotel is beautiful and a wonderful sight to see. The roll-away bed fee was charged but unused, as the teenager preferred the comfortable sofa bed. While some guests wished for a more personal touch, they still loved the hotel and plan on returning.
