Known as the Grande Dame of San Francisco, this legendary hotel has occupied its commanding position at the top of chic Nob Hill for over 100 years, and is truly part of the city's history. The Fairmont San Francisco was the first hotel to reopen its doors after the 1906 earthquake destroyed all the city's hotels; the world's delegates met here in 1945 to draw up the United Nations Charter; and it was here that Tony Bennett first sang his signature song "I Left my Heart in San Francisco". Guests who experience the old-world grandeur and exquisite opulence of this majestic San Francisco landmark will surely understand why he did so.
The resplendent lobby, with its soaring Corinthian columns, crystal chandeliers and gold swirled marble, pays fitting homage to the Beaux-Arts spirit of the Edwardian period. With vaulted ceilings and wrap-around staircase, it's full of original features from 1907, including velvet chairs, gilded frames and mahogany furnishings. The hallways are lined with glass cabinets containing photos and stories from the hotel's stellar history, with the walls crowded with photos of distinguished guests over the decades.
One of the top places to be seen in San Francisco is the Fairmont's jaw-dropping Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar, with thatched-roof huts, tiki torches, and a band floating on a catamaran on a central lagoon -- and there is actually a tropical rainstorm every 15 minutes. The main restaurant is the grand Laurel Court, offering the finest regional fare, sourced from local farms, in an elegant space under its three domes. Extra flavours come from herbs grown in the hotel's own rooftop culinary garden, which is also home to four honey bee hives, providing honey for both restaurants, and for brewing the hotel's own special Honey Saison Beer.
