Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa was once the seat of a prestigious South African family. Now converted into a hotel, it still retains much of its former fascinating charm, making arriving here feel like coming home.

Fairlawns offers Courtyard Suites (classic suites, 54 m²), Villa Suites (superior suites, 84 m²), Grande Chateau Suites in the Chateau Wing (deluxe suites) and a 240 m² Presidential Suite. We recommend the Villa Suites with views over the garden and pool. All suites are individually themed and equipped with every modern-day comfort.

The restaurant offers local and international delicacies, which can be enjoyed (weather permitting) on the veranda with views of the well-manicured, deep green lawn – upon which guests can also enjoy a game of croquet. The pool invites visitors to swim, relax and unwind.

Fairlawns Hotel is situated in the Morningside Manor district of town, near Sandton, the new centre of Johannesburg. The renowned Nelson Mandela Square (excellent shopping facilities) is only 4 km away, and can be reached by taking advantage of the hotel’s free shuttle service. The airport is approximately 50 minutes away.

The pool invites guests to take a dip while the fitness studio offers an ideal place for a spot of training. The hotel boasts an in-house spa; golf and tennis facilities are located nearby.

Private guided tours in and around Johannesburg are also available – the hotel’s managers are happy to offer further details with regard to this activity.
