Big spacious rooms with a nice kitchenette. Friendly staff members who provide great service. Felt safe and secure. Home away from home . The rooms are only missing a phone to reach reception especially of the rooms are far. My experience was great . Would stay there again😊😊

Safe and lovely, simple hotel in central Sandton. Room was large, only gripe was shower which needed a refurb to avoid flooding the bathroom. Breakfast was plentiful. The grounds were big enough for me to get my morning jog in without heading outside.

First time stay at the hotel and was pleasantly surprised. Rooms are quite big and spacious, with a separate lounging area from the bedroom. Never had meals so can’t comment. Downside was the shower in bath but other than that, great experience. Upside was location quite central.

We checked into this hotel for 2 nights. Our stay was very comfortable. All staff were extra friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a lovely dinner that was freshly prepared and very good value for money. I can highly recommend this hotel for a stay just outside the city.

This Hotel is well located to everything that matters in Sandton and caters well for corporate or leisure travellers. Rooms are spacious and have a kitchenette and little dining and sitting area. It offers a comfortable and cosy feel and though the decor is a little old fashioned, it is in good condition and it is not an issue at all. The entire environment feels like you staying in a secure space and the staff are very friendly and helpful. the breakfast team were an absolute delight - Jerome and David were wonderful - professional and charming. In fact every staff member made an effort and we felt welcome from time of arrival till departure. Great value Accommodation and highly recommended.

The Fairview is centrally located so great for business or visiting many of Nairobi's shopping, hiking, etc. attractions. The security around the hotel is very high and the care they take around Covid protocols is very high. There are currently three restaurants, and I had tasty meals at all three. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Elvis the waiter was particularly helpful. The setting, in an amazingly beautiful garden made it feel like an oasis in the city. The gym was decently equipped and all of the machines were in very good condition. I noticed that one machine was sticking a bit when using. I mentioned it to an employee who came into the gym and within five minutes and man came in and repaired it. There is a nice swimming pool in the back garden (a wee bit chilly initially for my taste, but I am a Californian who loves quite warm pools). Two areas that I felt could use improvement were the decor of the rooms - they were rather spartan, and the counter space in the bathrooms - there was very little. They also used small shampoos, conditioner, body wash in the small, disposable plastic containers. I would like to see more hotels going toward the nice aluminum recyclable shampoo/conditioner bottles so that less plastic waste is generated. Overall an excellent stay. Would I stay again? Absolutely.…

I do not think I would have shelled the full price for this place in a normal situation. Luckily, during COVID-19 we got a greatly reduced rates and were able to experience this fantastic property. The grounds and the buildings are very nice and relaxing, and the rooms are comfortable (get a poolside one if yo can!). Of course, this is Nairobi, not Vienna, so expect the staff to not always be super efficient or well trained. Having said that, we still had a good time here overall.
