About the Hotel

Located in Johannesburg - South Africa’s largest city and gateway to the rest of Africa - Fairlawns is situated just 6 km from central Sandton, and 20 km from the Johannesburg city centre to offer the upmarket traveler a delicate mix of luxury and convenience. Established in 1997, Fairlawns, or “FBH” as it’s come to be affectionately known by Managing Director, Michael Kewley, is a property proud in heritage and character. Previously a luxury private residence, it is only fitting that the property has transformed “herself” into the stylish hotel, with an air of eclectic sophistication, that Fairlawns is today.

Reviews for Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa

Beautiful Property. Skip the spa

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

This is a stunning g property. We had a beautiful hotel room. All the rooms are different. Excellent food as well. The following is my only complaint: Had a spa appointment for a hot stone massage. This was a very unfortunate experience. First of all, there were a couple of young “influencers” who were in the dressing room taking inappropriate photos of each other. I had to find a toilet to get changed in order to prevent t being part of their “photo shoots!” This should not be happening in a high-end spa. Then, the masseuse did not follow my direction. She seems upset that she had to do this massage. She proceeded to use her body weight, with a huge amount of pressure, on my lower back after I told her to use less pressure and use the hot stones. The hot stones were barely used. Her body weight on my lower back caused a fracture of my sacrum. I reported this to the concierge via email and never received a response. The property and food are fabulous, but avoid the spa!

Our travel agent booked us into Fairlawns for our last night in Johannesburg. It's a beautiful property; a true oasis in the norther suburbs. The staff could not have been nicer.

Beautiful location and outstanding accommodation and food....a little more staff training is needed to make it truly exceptional

This is a beautiful location with incredible rooms and food. The spa is incredible and the setting simply brilliant. We loved the experience but overall a little more help with staff service is needed to make it exceptional...on our final day there was a function and we were rather abruptly moved to a new location and both nights we had drink at the bar and had to find staff to serve us....overall however this a great hotel

Perfect for business trips stay during winter and I believe it would be great to visit in summer and spend time in the outdoor spa and the pool. Perfect location as its near Midrand, Sandton and Fourways.
