Is this a contest of some sort? :p
My list is pretty much identical to yours (a total of 18 properties I think), roughly the same hotels minus the ones in Egypt/Dubai plus the Fairmont SIN and the Fairmont Vier Jahreszeiten Hamburg, both fantastic properties!
Planning to stay at the Savoy this year for a night to check it out.:)

With a chain of only @ 70 properties I am curious if someone has actually stayed at most or all of them. That is all.

Jarusoba.. How is Amex Centurion life treating you nowadays?
So far so good! We've managed to stay in almost a dozen properties for free or with a suite ug. Looking forward to getting the new Plat packages again. But we haven't decided which Fairmonts we will be staying at this year.;)
To put it back on topic, so far, the OP has stayed in the most Fairmonts.^

There seems to be a lot of similiarity in which Fairmonts people have stayed at.
I wonder, of all the Fairmonts, if Mr. Everyman were to stay at one, which one would he most likely stay at? As in, is there a Fairmont that is the most popular from a "yeah, I stayed at one" viewpoint (sorta like a "unique visitor" ranking)?
My hunch is that the answer would be Banff, but it is just a hunch and is based on (i) the extreme busloads of tourists that visit the place; and (ii) it is a relatively famous hotel in a relatively famous tourist trap.

Still waiting to see someone to post a review of Mecca Clock Tower.
I am guessing that is a hard task, isn't mecca closed to tourism, and only for participants in the hajj?

Afaik Saudi Arabia doesn´t offer tourist visas at all and only Muslims are permitted to visit Mecca (whether year-round or only during the hajj I don´t know).
