Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows
Sustainable, oceanfront elegance in Santa Monica
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

As you enter the gilded gates, cruise down a long driveway and arrive underneath a behemoth fig tree, you know you’re in for something special at Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, which is tucked on five verdant acres overlooking the ocean in Santa Monica.
Steeped in more than a century of history, Fairmont Miramar was once the estate of the founders of Santa Monica. Since its inception as a hotel in 1921, the luxury stay has hosted a roster of star-studded guests, including Marilyn Monroe, Bill Clinton, Angelina Jolie and Matthew McConaughey.
The unique hotel offers accommodations to suit any style. Of the 297 rooms to choose from, opt for the vintage-vibe Bungalows (a celebrity favorite) with private patios, modern rooms in the nine-story Ocean Tower or the elegant accommodations in the six-story Palisades Building.
You also will have plenty of choice among the high-end amenities, such as six dining and drinking options, Lloyd’s Barbershop, Exhale Spa with treatments and exercise classes, the French-based brand Vilebrequin swimwear store and Atelier by Edward Avedis jewelry shop.
