The stylish Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows embodies the eclectic, casual elegance of Santa Monica and Southern California. The beachfront hotel has been a celebrity draw ever since a young Greta Garbo moved in for an extended stay in the Roaring Twenties. Overlooking the Pacific Ocean on five sweeping acres, the Miramar offers a resort-like setting in a perfect location: walking distance to the Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica State Beach, the 26-Mile Bike Path, Venice Beach Boardwalk and the renowned Santa Monica Farmers’ Market. The critically acclaimed FIG Restaurant, namesake of the landmark 80-foot Moreton Bay Fig Tree rooted in the hotel’s front drive, serves up farm-to-table SoCal cuisine and offers patio-style atrium dining. Soko, the new sushi pop-up; the hip Bungalow Bar, with ocean views and craft cocktails; Dogtown coffee and fresh-squeezed juices; and the Lobby Lounge all create a vibrant atmosphere that is a draw for locals and international visitors alike. On-site shops include Vilebrequin, Atelier by Edward Avedis (Lady Gaga’s jeweler), Lloyd’s Barbershop and Birds & Fellows by Glam + Go. The Exhale Spa, indoor/outdoor ocean-view gym, outdoor heated pool, and Miramar Golf Academy provide plenty of ways for guests to renew, recharge and simply relax. Accommodations range from secluded beach bungalows to luxury suites with breathtaking balcony ocean views, and parking is available, along with complimentary BMW house car service within a three-mile radius, beach cruisers for guests and 24-hour concierge service. Ideal for couples seeking a romantic retreat, families looking for a fun getaway and business travelers desiring coastal comfort, the Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows’ experience is so unique it can be found in one place: Only at The Miramar.

- Lisa HSan Francisco, California11 contributionsFantastic ServiceWe had a luxurious final summer splurge at the Fairmont. The staff, particularly the valet, made our vacation. This amazing service continued after we left when we left behind the adapter to charge our rented electric car. Brett Hemingway found it, contacted me when he was away from work, and got it back to me in time to return the rental. We felt so well taken care of!Dear ahills70, We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Fairmont Miramar - Hotel & Bungalows. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team.

- nancybherzogSaint Louis, Missouri3 contributionsRehearsal Dinner and Group Room BlockPlanned a rehearsal dinner for 150 guests outdoors at the Fairmont Miramar and had most of our out of town guests staying on the property. We also hosted an outdoor Sunday Brunch. The rehearsal dinner event could not have been nicer. The front driveway was miraculously transformed into a gorgeous setting with perfect mood lighting and plenty of heat lamps underneath that majestic fig tree. The meals were absolutely delicious (guests had a choice of three entrees) and the staff was pleasant, attentive and efficient. Guests raved about the food! The group room block worked out just fine. Kimberly D. was extremely organized and very responsive whenever I needed to reach her concerning any room requests or needs. She was even able to upgrade us to a lovely suite. A real pleasure to work with. The Sunday Brunch was a buffet set up outdoors. Again, the staff handled the group with ease and the food was delicious.The cost of hosting the events and the room rates are not inexpensive, but prices are probably right in line with what is considered a good value for the area. Los Angeles is an expensive place . . . Santa Monica even more so. We have no regrets at having chosen the Fairmont Miramar for our celebration weekend. The only complaints we heard from our guests was the variances in quality of hotel rooms and some guests were disturbed by music coming from the club late at night depending on room location.Date of stay: January 2020Written February 11, 2020
- Halley Ross/Fox Family9 contributionsFairmont Miramar Santa Monica :: Amazing Service & Experience from the moment we made our reservation!Just like many other households : COVID played a huge role in 2020 & first half of 2021 for us. My fiancé has underlying medical issues that really kept us fully at home for 1.5 years. Once we got fully vaccinated it was time to start looking at places to safely get out of the Arizona Heat. We had visited The Fairmont Santa Monica before and loved the people and location so after finding a great deal with via American Express we booked our trip for end of June/beginning of July! Shortly after that, we got an email from Garrick in guest services asking if there was anything they could do to make our stay more comfortable. I sent a long a few requests, and let me know how special this trip was to us ::: & they 1000% made us feel beyond special! We felt very safe with the staff wearing masks and everything always looked and felt clean. We know that most hospitality spaces are short staffed - but it did not effect the overall service at the Fairmont bc everyone is so friendly and helpful with any request. They upgraded us to a beyond beautiful room & continued to check in without though out the trip and even after! (Which lead us to booking another stay that starts tomorrow :) We are huge fans of places where the people working start to feel like friends/family and that is how we feel at the Fairmont Miramar. Garrick has gone above and beyond to make sure every detail is thought of and that every trip feels like a true celebration. #onlyatthemiramar #miramarmoments From the valet/bell desk to the front desk to the housekeeping - service with a smile and that California vibe. We will never stay at another hotel when on town!! So thank you Garrick & the entire Fairmont Family for making us feel so special :)Thank you for taking the time to fill out a survey on our behalf! It was a pleasure taking care of you and your fiancé! We can't wait to have you again sometime.Written July 23, 2021This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Date of stay: June 2021Traveled as a coupleWritten July 18, 2021

My recent stay at the FAIRMONT hotel in Santa Monica from chicago was amazing. The experience alone was very satisfying leading into next planned tripped at the exact same location due to the attentiveness to clients want/needs. Freddie the manager has been welcoming with his expertise of Santa Monica whereabouts, delivering with food options, nightlife, and executing how to make an individual feel right at home no matter how far they may have traveled. The FAIRMONT hotel team has been outstanding.

The room was cozy and looked over the ocean. Jose and Antoine were so helpful. They recommended prince driver from KLS. Exceptional service. Out of lax in a flash highly recommend. When u are Miramar hotel you must go to huckleberry on Wiltshire. Best cornbread and chai I ever had. They’re sandwiches and to go food all organic and top notch. A little off the beaten path. But worth it!

Maricela was very warm and kind. She gave me excellent service. She went beyond and above the Call of Duty®. When the umbrella wasn’t working to give me shade,Maricela herself figured out how to move the heater to give me shade. Lunch was very tasty. She worked hard to get me food that would have no pepper in it because I have a pepper allergy. I appreciated having her surgery today for lunch very much. She is definitely a five out of five server.!!!

Spent the weekend with our friends celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary. Lou from in room dining was a tremendous help as she facilitated the delivery of a heartfelt note and some goodies to await the anniversary couple. Her care and dedication was greatly appreciated by all of us! I would also like to thank Mr. Corey the director of security for running a tight ship and ensuring the safety of hotel guests. Indeed all staff members at this hotel added to the joy of the stay. Kudos to the management.

Emily is amazing but I had a bad overall experience. I came in specifically for a tomato buratta salad and it wasn't on the menu. Emily checked with the kitchen to see if they could do it. Not all of the ingredients were available but they had tomatoes and burrata and I said that was fine. Emily told me she would do her best to get the chef to make it but he refused. I've been a regular for a long time and was very disappointed.

My friend and I wanted to have lunch at Fig but it is only open for dinner. Instead we went to eat at the Lobby Lounge. The food was delicious! We had the crab cake, ahi poke bowl, and gnocchi. Our server, Maricela, was so kind and her attention to detail was superb! Highly recommend!

- After a 10 hour trip we had to wait for the room to be ready. We got the keys 2 hours after the official check-in time. - After 2 days of stay the elevators were broken. They were not repaired during the whole stay. You had to take the service elevator down which smelled like garbage. - There were 2 days that they did not do our room. We called the front desk to request service, very nice words, but no one came. - The hotel in general looks good in the lobby area, but the room was a bit old: carpet with stains, bathtub with dirt on the surface. I don't mean that the cleaners did a bad job, but that the hotel is poorly maintained. - Seeing all this, I asked for a rate change because the hotel is not up to standards for a hotel that charges almost $800 per night. They had the "generosity" to take off the $45 per day they charge for hotel services. - Overall, a hotel that ruined the long-awaited vacation my wife and I had planned.…
