Nestled in the lush suburb of Morningside Manor in Sandton, Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa is recognised as one of the most beautiful, romantic and exclusive hotels in South Africa.
Villa d’Este on Lake Como in Northern Italy and Easton Manor in Surrey, England, were the inspiration behind the Palladian architecture and general design style of the hotel, which is characterised by a timeless classicism infused with modern facilities. It therefore comes as no surprise that Fairlawns has been awarded numerous accolades, including: **Best Luxury Wellness Spa 2014** in South Africa,**Diamond Diners Club Wine List of the Year Award** for 2014, and the **Best Luxury Hotel Spa for 2013** at the World Luxury Hotel Awards.The original Courtyard Suites, built on the site of the old equestrian stables, were completed in 1998. Four years later the decision was made to extend the hotel by adding a Premier Wing, comprising a further six Premier Suites and a palatial Presidential Suite. The meeting and banquet centre, Balinese spa and fully equipped gymnasium followed.
Each suite, no matter what the theme, is opulent and spacious, which are the trademarks of Fairlawns. From bespoke furniture to unique architectural details, the finished product is a labour of love, and it shows. The hotel launched its Private Villa Residence, as well as its new Victorian Tea Lounge as part of its 2014 expansion plan.
Fairlawns accommodates both local and international guests, whether for corporate or leisure travel, all of whom seem to regard the hotel as their private sanctuary when in Johannesburg.
Apart from the marvellous cuisine on offer in the Terrace Restaurant, which is open to non-resident guests, the Balinese spa is also available to day visitors who want to enjoy any of the varied treatments and packages on offer. The private Bali-inspired spa gardens, with the sound of running water and birdsong, are a true restorative for the soul, even if only for an hour or two.
Golfers are also well catered for, as Fairlawns has a partnership with the nearby Johannesburg Country Club, which offers two world-class golf courses.
