Spa experience.
Pros:

Spa experience. An underwhelming, overpriced experience. When asked if drinks were available, we were told: not to my knowledge. The treatment itself was mediocre, held in a small airless room that just about accommodated the 4 people in there.

The Fantastic Fairway
Pros:

Had a great stay at the Fairway, great location, great staff, great bar area over looking the golf course, nice rooms, if I make it back to South Africa I won't look for any other hotels to stay at, the Fairway will be my immediate choice.

Excellent Service
Pros:

Even though my stay was short, I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent at the Fairview. Everything was clean and pleasing to the eye. From the minute I entered the gate, I was greeted with friendly smiles. The reception team, restaurant and bar staff as well as the cleaning staff was not only welcoming and friendly, but also accommodating.

Lack of maintenance
Pros:

We have stayed at the hotel a few times and it is starting to look very sad. The maintenance of the rooms is sorely lacking. This detracts from the beautiful location on a golf course and the extremely efficient and friendly service of the staff.

Pros:

Friendly welcome and wonderful room with a massive bed and delightful view over the golf course. The restaurant was great, would recommend.

The only minor letdown was the shower, which needs a replacement shower head, and the plumbing could use some maintenance.

3 nights trip
Pros:

On the surface this hotel looks great, all you could need for a short stay. However, look a little deeper and there are problems. poor food in the restaurant, often cold at breakfast, not great at dinner. The rooms are nice, but too much doesn't work is broken or is missing, lack of checks and maintenance stand out. This all comes down to poor management I'm afraid. Everything we pointed out and asked for was either dealt with or delivered, but it shouldn't need to be asked for, it should simply be there, that is poor management. Use the Golf club it is is far better than the hotel bar or restaurant.

Amazing Customer Service!
Pros:

From arrival to departure I was treated like a VIP. Fairway Hotel would not be what it is without its staff. Exceptionally clean. Fantastic facilities with a pool right outside your room. Definitely recommended.

Four-night stay - Fairway Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort
Pros:

1. On our first night, it was noted that the bed linen cover was stained yellow and was brought to the attention of reception. This is unhygienic and unacceptable and should have not occurred should there have been adequate quality checks in place by the hotel staff.
2. There were no blankets in the rooms at all. This is in peak winter season. I raised the issue at reception, and was told that no blankets are available since all have been requested by the guests. I was assured that it would be addressed. We stayed there for 4 nights and checked out, to date still have not received a follow up call about the non-availability of blankets. Really pathetic standard of service.
3. There was water from the show cubicle entering into toilet area. I raised concern about possible safety hazard with the room staff, and to date no follow up call from the hotel staff or management.

In summary, a rather deflating experience, given the cost of the hotel accommodation, one would expect much higher standards. Disappointed.
