Geared for eco-conscious visitors, the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts and Lexus partnered for two Lexus Hybrid Living Suites, one at The Fairmont San Francisco and the other at The Fairmont Washington, D.C. Designed by eco-designer Kelly LaPlante, of Los Angeles’ Kelly LaPlante Organic Interior Design, guests can sleep, eat and drink sustainably. Every aspect of the room has been meticulously planned for the eco-minded traveler, incorporating ideas and products from Lexus Hybrid Living partners. (And, yes, that is Lexus as in the auto manufacturer. Lexus Hybrid Living Suite visitors have complimentary use of a low-emission Lexus LS 600h L during their stay.)

Highlights of the décor include furniture by Kelly LaPlante and the Kenneth Cobonpue collection, eco-friendly fabrics by Q Collection, an organic mattress system by Suite Sleep, bedding by Coyuchi Organic, organic towels and robes by Nandina, environmentally friendly paint provided by Benjamin Moore Aura, and pillows and comforters by Sleep & Beyond. Lexus has installed a custom coffee table, designed by LaPlante, utilizing pieces of leather recycled from Lexus vehicles.

The Lexus Hybrid Living Suite at The Fairmont San Francisco features wrap-around windows designed to allow natural light to stream in, reducing the need for artificial lighting and marrying eco-friendly quarters with the beauty of the outdoor environment. All fixtures in the room utilize compact fluorescent lights, also found throughout the hotel’s 591 newly renovated guestrooms and suites.

From eco-friendly bath amenities to mini-bars stocked with local biodynamic wines, organic farmstead cheeses and other delicious treats from each region, the Lexus Hybrid Living Suite will provide an unforgettable taste of the “green life.”
