My husband and I stayed at the Fairview Inn on a recent trip to Jackson to visit our college age son. This inn is beautiful and was one of the highlights of our trip. It is surrounded by big magnolias and crepe myrtles. We stayed in an attic suite and it was beautiful. The breakfast was excellent. We dined one night at their restaurant, Sophies, and it was also excellent. It was nice dine there and not have to drive after dinner.

The Fairview Inn is a beautifully maintained property and the Innkeepers are delightful and accomodating. The restaurant serves delicious food with friendly service. The room we stayed in had great decor and the bath robes were a nice surprise! The location is close to everything including the airport.

We stayed in the quiet, cozy, cool, spacious, elegant Third Floor Suite; it's black and white color scheme was complemented by rich, dark woodwork. Loved relaxing in the oversize Jacuzzi with overhead skylight. Tasty buffet-style breakfast made it easy to eat well but quickly, since we were traveling on business. Dinner in Sophia's Restaurant combined friendly service with elegant atmosphere; the food was delicious and creative. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Jackson, that's for sure. Great for business travel or a romantic escape.

Peter and Tamar have taken an adequate B&B and turned it into a multifaceted gem. The inn is relaxing and comfortably furnished. Savory meals are served in their lovely restaurant, Sophie's. Their full service spa is too good to miss! The staff is friendly and responsive to guests' unique needs. I highly recommend this inn!

My stay was wonderful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a beautiful, well-decorated, clean inn. the dining room, food (not breakfast) was a bit ordinary and sparse. Overall, though, I was very pleased.

The Fairview Inn overwhelms from the minutes you walk in the door. The warmth of the decor and staff are really special. You feel like you are at home. The rooms are not 'hotelly' and are all different. Will definitely will come again.

My and I went to the Fiarview Inn in March. We scurried to our room, the Hayloft Honeymoon Suite. My husband was surprised upon entering the room~e indicating this wasn't the room he looked at on the internet. Thinking he'd made a mistake we quickly made reservations for dinner at Sophia's. As we were getting ready, a wedding party, band began to play. By the time we made it to dinner we were literally screaming with each other in order to hear ourselves over the band. The waitress was very apologetic for the noise. The food was spectacular. We then went on the grounds to find a quiet place to sit and talk. The Inn is smoke free, however, the grounds are not. We went of to our room only to be disturbed by the band until later that night. We heard something in the walls most of the night. The next morning my husband discovered that the animal had actually eaten a hole about the size of two silver dollars, in the wall. You could see the fur of the animal as it attempted to get out. We immediately gathered our things and left the room. We asked to see the Inn Keeper and were told that he was not available and were instructed to speak to his daughter. We did so and were told that we could expect a call from the Peter. Still thinking he'd booked the wrong room, we looked on the Fairview Inn website to see what room he'd intended to book. We were even more disappointed when we discovered that we were in the correct room. The website, however, did not actually depict the decor of the room. The site had a very elegantly decorated room. The actual room itself was not elegant at all. After several days I called the Inn and spoke to Peter Sharp. I infomed him of our incident and the fact that the site was not factual in the depiction of the room. He stated he was unaware of both and would get back with me. I phoned 3 times and still did not get a return call.

My wife and I had to change plans for a visit to New Orleans because she had to teach a class on our 23rd Anniversary. I decided that we would stay in town at the Fairview. We had been there several times for wedding receptions and thought it might be a nice surprise. After reserving the Hayloft, I canceled dinner reservations that I had made at another restaurant and reserved a table at the Fairview. As it turned out, it was a cold weekendend and a perfect choice not to leave the Inn. What a great stay. From the time I first contacted the Inn to the last person I handed the key back to, everyone was a delight. The suite was large and warm with a jacuzzi tub and walk-in shower. Plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy our special occasion. Best of all, no 3 hour drive back home. We will definitely do this again.

This elegant mansion is home to spacious and inviting common areas, a charming fine-dining restaurant, a cozy library, and more. Guest rooms show equal attention to detail, and are equally appealing for both business travelers and romantic escapes. Owner Peter Sharp is taking years of big hotel experience and is applying it to the Fairview, so that it will have the best of both worlds.
