PB hotel design editorial

That Moreton Bay fig tree — its canopy spreading wide enough to shade the entire motor court, its root system older than the hotel itself — is the most honest symbol of what the Fairmont Miramar Santa Monica has always been: a property defined less by its architecture than by its accumulated presence. The original bungalow on this Ocean Avenue bluff dates to 1889, built for railroad baron John P. Jones, the founder of Santa Monica itself. The current tower, a mid-century modern slab with deep balconies stepping back toward the Pacific, carries that history at some remove, but the grounds hold it intact. The interiors across the 297 rooms divide into two distinct registers. Ocean-facing rooms deploy grasscloth wall coverings, linen upholstered headboards, and Eames lounge chairs positioned to frame direct views of the Santa Monica Pier and the beach beyond — a California modernist shorthand that works precisely because the view earns it. Garden-facing rooms settle into a warmer, more residential palette: leather tufted ottomans, wing-backed beds in charcoal, and framed vintage Santa Monica photography anchoring the walls. The restaurant, FIG, brings the outdoors in through floor-to-ceiling glazing and a suspended garden of trailing potted plants above bistro chairs in woven rattan, the whole space dissolving usefully into the poolside terrace beyond, where a wood-fired oven and dark granite bar keep the atmosphere closer to Californian backyard than hotel amenity.

"This was our first time at this hotel. I booked it with the visa luxury collection. The service was above and beyond. We got welcome gifts and they were super accommodating. The view was incredible and its close walking distance to the beach, pier and shopping. Would definitely stay here again."

"Come with an expectation that it's an older hotel... Yes there some remodeling that needs to be done but honestly the service, food, and LOCATION outshined here. They attempt to modernize the rooms which I give them credit for because it's not that bad but bathrooms are expected to be outdated since this hotel is old as their humongous fig tree. It still was not terrible! Everything was working well still in our room and bathroom. Rooms were clean! Great value for Amex members. We love the service here. Everyone was so professional and kind. Those valet guys were the best we ever had!! And we stay in numerous hotels in country and internationally! They honestly were so kind in taking our scooters in and out of storage whenever we needed them. Daniel was great and so were the others! Those guys need more credit running around in their suits in this heat while maintaining their smiles and professionalism, and managing the constant chaos in this roundabout! Food was amazing at the FIG. Better than I expected it to be! Location is clutch here. This is close to all the shopping, restaurants, park, and most importantly the beach! You can rent e-bikes and bikes here. We love how this hotel is dog friendly as well! Mr. Chuck had a splendid time. We definitely will be back!!"

"We had a fantastic stay at the Fairmont Miramar. The hotel is beautiful, the location is perfect, and all of the staff were friendly and welcoming. A special thank you to Jordan, our concierge, who truly made our trip. He went above and beyond to help us throughout our stay and nothing was ever too much trouble. Jordan helped us book a Waymo so we could experience a driverless taxi for the first time, and he also arranged our car rental so we could enjoy a day trip to Santa Barbara, the Getty Villa, and Zuma Beach. His recommendations and local knowledge made our holiday even more memorable. Thank you to Jordan and the entire Fairmont Miramar team for making our stay so special. We look forward to coming back!"

"I stayed at the Fairmont for a birthday get away and had such a wonderful experience with the valet staff! Most notably, Alan, Matthew and Garry who were all so accommodating and friendly. We truly just appreciated the entire staff and are also very grateful for the manager Andres who made the entire stay a pleasure! If you’re looking for great service definitely stay here."
