a hotel with tons of charcter
very cozy and unique characteristic hotel feels like you back in time, the staff are very warm, feels like a home away form home .
However would update some of the rooms, a new coat of paint would do alot. the old style and charcter should remain, this is truley unique!!
i will be back for sure and would recommend the place!

Intriguing time capsule from colonial era
Initially given room on ground floor without windows in bedroom, and only a frosted glass window in the bathroom. Not happy with room, were given a room upstairs which was much better. Vintage plumbing but fully functional, furniture all somewhat dated but everything clean. Fascinating faded colonial charm about establishment, interesting period photos on walls of lounge. Excellent buffet breakfast, helpful and friendly waiting staff.

A very charming and lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Reception arranged a walking tour for us which was excellent. The rooms are clean and a good size with vintage furniture both in the bedrooms and in the main areas. The air con is very efficient. We loved sitting on the first floor outside terrace. We ate in the outside restaurant both nights that we stayed, as it was a very pleasant environment with good reasonable food. Very good coffee and cakes. When we stayed they didn't have a liquor license which was a pity but we understand they hope to have one shortly as they have applied.

Great place
Elgin Fairlawn is a beautiful historical landmark 1786. The staff are so friendly professional and polite. We eat at the restaurant every night that we stayed at the hotel. All of the food was very tasty and delicious, exceptionally the Chicken Manchow and Chicken hot and sour soup.

Avoid staying here
The property has weird rules of not allowing guests to rake pictures. Ended up paying extra to get a photography permit.
