The Fairmont is an excellent option for the business traveler who wants to mix in pleasure. The business amenities are satisfactory and the ambiance provides a lovely respite in between meetings. The staff is accommodating and extremely helpful. There is a SoulCycle around the corner (Wilshire & 2nd) which was so convenient. It would be great if the Fairmont partnered... More

The Fairmont is a beautiful hotel. Our room was large (even had a balcony overlooking Santa Monica beach), personnel could not have been more accommodating. Can't imagine how this hotel was rated poorly by Gmsaba? Fantastic!

This hotel is absolutely the worst i have ever stayed. The rooms are too small and the bathroom terrible. Im 1,85 m tall and I hit my head in the shower every day. They suggest me to move the room for the same size of my room and i decline. After that they charge me U$ 120,00 for the phone... More

We spent the past weekend at the Fairmont Miramar with our two young sons and had a wonderful stay. We were a bit concerned by the other reviews about the noise from the new club but found that we had no reason to be. The rooms were very comfortable and we found it very quiet at night.

By doing this, the resort guarantees early check in (12pm), late check out (4pm), breakfast included, and upgrade, and a resort specific amenity. The... More

Having stayed regularly at other Fairmont hotels, including their two hotels in Bermuda which are really top class, this one was a bit of a disappointment. It’s a very pretentious hotel but as soon as you scratch the surface you realize it’s far from meeting expectations. Our room was reasonably large (although not very large by US standards) but much... More

The property is gorgeous and the staff are so welcoming and helpful. The location can't be beat close to the boardwalk and 3rd st. Had a wonderful massage in the spa as well. Definitely recommend. My room was a bit of a walk, but still really nice.

Great location right off the main road that goes by the beach and a few blocks away from the trendy 3rd Street Promenade (Shopping). Hotel has a great pool and fitness room. The staff are typical Fairmont which in relates to great service. You wont be disappointed.

I had read the reviews on this hotel before I booked it and a lot of the reviews were very favourable, albeit the problems with the nightclub noise. After my stay I got the feeling it was the best out of a bad bunch, I think Santa Monica is missing a true five star hotel. The excellent reviews don't seem... More
