Rooms & Views

All 606 guest rooms and suites at Fairmont San Francisco have high ceilings and built-in USB ports. The marble baths come with Le Labo Rose 31 toiletries and plush robes. Select rooms offer panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Coit Tower, and the Financial District.

Dining & Entertainment

The Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar serves Polynesian-fusion cuisine with live entertainment on a floating barge. Since 1907, the hotel has served afternoon tea in the opulent Laurel Court setting. A second restaurant, the Laurel Court, also offers breakfast and brunch, though the Tonga Room remains the signature attraction.

Location & Transportation

The hotel sits atop Nob Hill, the only property in San Francisco where all three cable car lines meet at the entrance. Downtown attractions such as Chinatown and Fisherman's Wharf are within walking distance or a short ride. The Golden Gate Bridge is 6 km away, and San Francisco International Airport is a 20-minute drive.

Wellness & Facilities

The on-site health club includes equipment, saunas, and exercise classes for all guests. A full-service spa offers massages and treatments, though guests should note the spa is operated by LiveFitGym. Additional amenities include a rooftop garden with outdoor furniture and a picnic area.

Sustainability & Unique Programs

The hotel maintains educational honeybee tours on its rooftop, part of a commitment to environmental sustainability. This property was the venue where the United Nations Charter was drafted in 1945, a fact still visible in its historic halls. Guests can also explore the hotel's history through walking tours of the temporary art galleries on site.
