This is one of those old worldly hotels. You can't fault anything. We had booked this through Magnellan vacations on the internet and everything we had asked for we got - suite so that my daugther had her on space and early and late check in/outs. We were upgraded from a deluxe room to a Palliside suite. We stayed here... more

I researched where I would like to stay for my 50th birthday weekend & chose the Fairmont Miramar out of all the hotels in the world & boy what a disappointment. I had imagined sitting on my spacious balcony eating my birthday breakfast overlooking Santa Monica beach whilst having dinner in a local fab restaurant. Well let me tell you... more

Wonderful hotel.Great location.Stayed there for three nights.. Pure luxury. more

We enjoyed our stay at the Fairmont. However, for $300+ per night, we were expecting perfection. They were just little things, which I would ignore at a Best Western, but at these prices, it shouldn’t happen. 1. The bathroom sink drained too slowly 2. Housekeeping was vacuuming the room across from us and it was very loud—she kept banging her... more

Spent 2 nights here as part of organised tour of West Coast. This hotel is just pure luxury and we would have stopped for 2 weeks. It is ideally placed for the beach and plenty of shopping a 5 minute walk away. We wanted to go to Venice Beach and enquired at the concierge desk as to the best way... more

We just got back from a wonderful weekend at the Fairmont Miramar. The staff was wonderful, the hotel was wonderful, even the weather was wonderful. The hotel is located within walking distance to restaurants, the beach and shopping and we all will be returning. more

Great location near shopping, restaurants and beaches. Rooms are small but very nicely decorated. We had a nice view. The downside is that Santa Monica is noisy with traffic and, because it's a city, dirtier than I expected for being a beach town. The restaurant is very good. more

This hotel was fine for our very short stay in Santa Monica. But, it is important to note that it is not on the beach and that to get to the beach, you have to walk quite a bit and cross a highway. This was a surprise for us. If we ever stay in Santa Monica again, we will probably... more

Stayed with another 2 couples from 27th -30th September. Having previously stayed in 9 Fairmont hotel's I would have to say this is the poorest yet. I do agree the location is good but other than that it falls way below the normal Fairmont standrards. The rooms are bordering on 3 star standards. Very small, no soundproofing, tiny bathrooms, no... more
