- **Dimakatso Sema** (★ 5/5): "Went for the high tea. Great welcome drinks. They explain the teas and the treats. Nice chilled environment. Amazing toilet area. Loved it!!! Would definitely go again. Nice garden area."
- **Juliette Brown** (★ 5/5): "We had such a great Hight Tea, it was delicious, beautifully presented and quite substantial. Worth the money. Everything was delicious. We were welcomed with warm friendly faces and felt in good hands until we left. I would definitely recommend their afternoon Tea/High Tea. Allergies are also taken into consideration."
- **Amogelang Thake** (★ 5/5): "My girlfriend and I got spa treatments in celebration of our anniversary. The treatments were amazing, a good 8/10! The facilities are beautiful, and the entire place looks like you’ve left Johannesburg, lol. We then went to the restaurant to have a quick girl dinner, and we were assisted by a lovely lady named Precious. Upon arrival, I think his name was Brendon, asked us what the occasion was, and we let him know that we were celebrating our anniversary. After we had our girl dinner, Precious surprised us with some complimentary cupcakes with a plate written “Happy Anniversary” It was such a sweet gesture, one that both my girlfriend and I appreciated so much, especially after the hostile treatment we’d received on our dinner date the previous night at Level Seven Restaurant. Thank you for making our anniversary special, Precious."
- **Kubendran Naidoo** (★ 5/5): "Exceptional food, especially the Pasta on the Rocks. Quiet ambiance, excellent location. Above all highly efficient, friendly knowledgeable staff. Cynthia and Mark thank you for making our Daughter's Birthday special."
- **Chigwenya Cynthia** (★ 1/5): "Beautiful property let down by a failure of basic customer service. Fairlawns is a stunning property, and under different circumstances I would recommend but the hotel's subsequent handling of a straightforward administrative matter (duplicate booking) left a lasting negative impression that's worth sharing. I flagged the duplicate booking proactively before the day of arrival. At the front desk, I was advised to pay directly and pursue a refund through the booking agent. I honoured that arrangement in full: I checked in, completed my stay, and settled payment in person. What followed was a masterclass in how not to treat a guest. A written email went unanswered for seven days. I called three times to follow up; on one occasion the call dropped and not a single member of staff thought to call back. When a response eventually arrived, it mischaracterised my request entirely, deflected responsibility, and curtly declared the matter "closed" — before it had been resolved. I never asked the hotel for a refund. I asked for a single written confirmation to the booking partner confirming that I checked in and settled payment. That is all. The refusal to provide this left me caught in a dispute of the hotel's own making. In person, a complimentary bottle of wine was offered as an apology for a longer wait to check in, but this does not substitute for competent, accountable customer service. For a property of Fairlawns' calibre and price point, this is a huge disappointment."
