Kelly G TripAdvisor review

What a disaster. We travel often and always book luxury hotels. This place is overrated and overpriced - surviving on an old and out dated reputation. We checked in to a very dirty, loud and outdated guest room: filthy carpet, dusty windows and surfaces, and you could hear everything through the paper-thin walls. The elevators were broken, the line to check in was a 25 minute wait with one front desk agent servicing everyone. Our experience only got worse. We ordered room service and figured a “luxury hotel” like the Fairmont would have decent quality food in house - it couldn’t have been worse. I am not exaggerating by saying DiGiorno frozen pizza would have been significantly better than the pizza they served us. The rest of the food was equally gross. We got terrible sleep in the loud and uncomfortable room and actually couldn’t wait to checkout. As we left, the valet brought our car up in the pouring rain and parked it out in the open where we got soaked getting into it. We left in a rush and when we got home we found significant damage on our previously spotless and garage kept brand new car. Fairmont referred us to some shoddy third party company called propark (who they contract with to park your car). They promptly denied our claim and never sent a letter or called us to notify us of the denial. I only discovered that the claim had been denied after contacting the Fairmont weeks later. If you ever stay here I’d suggest you take a video and pictures of your car before you check in and before you leave the property. Because they are not trustworthy, honest or professional with guest’s vehicles. I witnessed them recklessly whipping vehicles around a parking garage and speeding around city streets. I complained to an executive assistant named Kendra who was very unhelpful and took precisely zero responsibility or accountability for the damage. She refused to follow through with a phone call as she had previously promised and would only communicate by email. She “encouraged” me to file a claim with my own insurance - I was actually very shocked and surprised and the total lack of customer service from a “high end” expensive luxury hotel like this. The whole experience from start to finish was substandard. The people who work at this property and more importantly those who manage them need training and education. There are PLENTY of better hotels in San Francisco. Save your time and money and yourself from the potential stress of dealing with issues like the ones I’ve experienced. None of which should have ever happened at an expensive luxury hotel.

Great stay in a landmark hotel

Konstantin R TripAdvisor review

The hotel is beautifully decorated with classic and modern art and of course pictures showcasing its long and glorious heritage. You feel like you’re taking a trip back in time! The rooftop garden is beautiful with a great view of landmark SF buildings. The restaurant staff provide great service and nice little touches with treats from the waiters and the chefs. I highly recommend it and my family will not allow me to book a different hotel when we go to San Francisco.

Hello Dangler, Thank you for your kind words! Reviews like these remind us so much of why we love our jobs. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay, and we do hope to see you again in the near future! Best, Lucas Yeh Front Office Manager

Great location with easy access to all cable cars, interesting historical insights throughout the hotel and the harbor view from the tower, we were very pleased.

Love the location and the hotel is beautiful old school San Francisco. I have an extreme mold allergy and the first 2 rooms we were given had very bad mold in the bathroom that was prevalent as you walked in. They accommodated us and moved us down the hall. The breakfast was good, but the waitstaff while friendly was really slow and understaffed (waiting for an hour for food each meal and was very overpriced $100 for each meal and we did not even order full meals). Staff nice and accommodating and I imagine Covid hit them hard. I hope they can keep it going. The bar downstairs is a fun classic.

Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay at Fairmont San Francisco. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the hotel's beautiful old-school charm and prime location. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the mold in the initial rooms and the slow service during breakfast. Please rest assured that we have taken note of your comments and will address these issues with the relevant teams. Our team strives to provide a seamless experience for all our guests, and we appreciate your understanding during these challenging times. We are glad to hear that our staff were accommodating, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an improved stay. Warm regards, Fairmont San Francisco
