| footnotes = }} The Fairmont San Francisco is a luxury hotel at 950 Mason Street, atop Nob Hill in San Francisco, California. The hotel was named after mining magnate and U.S. Senator James Graham Fair (1831-94), by his daughters, Theresa Fair Oelrichs and Virginia Fair Vanderbilt, who built the hotel in his honor. The hotel was the vanguard of the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts chain. The group is now owned by Fairmont Raffles Hotels International, but all the original Fairmont hotels still keep their names. As of July 2014, room rates begin at $409 per night. It has been featured in many films, including ''The Rock''. Exterior and interior shots of the hotel were used as stand-ins for the fictional St. Gregory Hotel in the television series ''Hotel''. The Fairmont San Francisco was added to the National Register of Historic Places (#02000373) on 17 April 2002. The Fairmont Hotel San Francisco is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Since 2015, Adventures by Disney, a Disney-owned premium tour company, has used the Fairmont San Francisco as the base for its four-day tour of San Francisco and Napa. == 1906 Earthquake == The hotel was nearly completed before the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Although the structure survived, the interior was heavily damaged by fire, and opening was delayed until 1907. Architect and engineer Julia Morgan was hired to repair the building because of her then innovative use of reinforced concrete, which could produce buildings capable of withstanding earthquakes and other disasters. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fairmont San Francisco」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
