Fairmont San Francisco

San Francisco, USA
5.5COSY

The Fairmont San Francisco dazzles with its iconic grandeur and a warmth carried largely by its staff, from Fermin's attentive breakfast service each morning to the doormen's cheerful greetings and Alma's carefully made coffee at the bar, though prospective guests should note that some rooms show their age with threadbare furnishings and worn carpets, making the human touch rather than the décor the true heart of the experience here.
