Company Description Fairmont Breakers is a beloved feature of the Long Beach skyline, a historic landmark with a character and soul of its own.
Originally opened in the roaring twenties as a lavish hotel on the waterfront, Breakers was a sought-after destination for world-famous stars.
Following an extensive renovation, Fairmont Breakers returns as Long Beach's only luxury hotel, restoring one of California's most storied properties to its original grandeur.
It offers 185 boutique rooms and suites; a rooftop pool and terrace; an open-air rooftop lounge with 360-degree views of the Pacific; a blissful two-story spa, wellness and fitness center; dining venues and bars including a live jazz club; and 10,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor function space.
Whether exploring the comforts of elevated coastal Italian cuisine in Nettuno or dining among the stars with champagne and caviar in Sky Room, Fairmont Breakers aims to delight all of your senses with artful surroundings and innovative offerings from our culinary team.
