My stay at the Fairmont San Francisco was quite a mixed bag. The hotel offers stunning views, especially from the Golden Gate suites, and the staff genuinely tries to accommodate guests. However, I encountered significant delays with services like valet and room service, which detracted from the experience. Overall, while the location and view are major positives, the inconsistent service left me wanting more.
