From Silver Screen to Front Row
For over a century, Fairmont hotels have been part of cinematic history, serving as backdrops for beloved films and as settings for legendary gatherings of movie stars, fashion icons, musicians, tastemakers, and royalty.
Birth of a Legend
In 1907, Fairmont San Francisco opened on Nob Hill, quickly becoming the city’s venue of choice for glittering balls, presidential visits and political gatherings. With this grand debut, the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts brand was born.
The Fairmont Muse
Fairmont hotels have long inspired creative minds. From playwright Noël Coward finishing "Private Lives" at Fairmont Peace Hotel to Claude Monet painting London scenes at The Savoy, our properties have been muses for celebrated artists.
A Royal Welcome
Our hotels have welcomed royalty from around the globe. Queen Elizabeth II visited our iconic properties throughout her reign, while Princess Diana graced Fairmont Le Château Laurier during her 1983 royal tour.
Ready for Our Close up
Since 1921, Fairmont hotels have been the backdrop for movie masterpieces, hosting stars and crews alike. From silent classics like "Kipps" to modern blockbusters, our properties continue to shine on the silver screen.
