The Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar (Fairmont Hotel tiki bar)

The Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar is a tiki-themed bar and restaurant inside the Fairmont Hotel, opened in 1945 and noted for its indoor pool/lagoon, floating bandstand, and simulated tropical rainstorms. The room's Polynesian decor and live music have made it a long-standing fixture in San Francisco nightlife; reservations and early arrival are common on nights with live performances. The Tonga Room is frequently mentioned in local coverage of the city's historic bars and remains a neighborhood destination for cocktails and themed dining. The Fairmont's lobby-level entrance leads to the Tonga Room at this Mason Street address.
