The Fairmont Hotel dates to 1903, when two sisters—Theresa Fair Oelrichs and Virginia Fair Vanderbilt—decided to build a spectacular boutique hotel in the heart of San Francisco’s Nob Hill. Today this luxurious respite boasts 606 guestrooms and suites with several amenities. Fairmont San Francisco is glorious proof that a great story never goes out of style. World leaders, renowned stars, history-making events, and unprecedented passion for hospitality have all intersected atop Nob Hill at this famed San Francisco hotel. Designed by Julia Morgan, the Beaux-Arts hotel combines luxurious accommodations and impeccable service with breathtaking views of the city and San Francisco Bay to create a truly memorable experience.
