    Stayed on 21st and 22nd

    July 23, 2012

    I knew it was a good B&B ahead of time but it exceeded expectations. The home had a very lovely unique feel to it. It wasn't a typical 4 diamond hotel. The staff were courteous by far from snobby. The Sunday brunch was one of the better overall meals I have ever eaten in my life. Pecan pie, cheesecake, creme brul'ee , banana pudding, and or so other deserts satisfy any ones sweet tooth. They also offer great services around town and have a very nice selection of historic civil war items and books. My family had a very good time and will definitely be returning.

    Southern hospitality, charm, and history at it's best, all in one!

    June 14, 2012

    I chose this B&B for our anniversary weekend getaway and it definitely exceeded my expectations. All the staff are super friendly and go above & beyond to make sure your stay is comfortable & relaxing. The 24 hour guest pantry is awesome with ice, filtered water, soda, fresh baked goods, coffee, etc. The breakfast was delicious and very filling each morning. We stayed in the English Suite on the 3rd floor and it was fabulous from the decor to the jacuzzi tub. They offer a game room, library, & gift shop as well. I also had a 25 minute massage at the nomiSpa which was wonderful. If you love history, I highly recommend staying here, and also visit the Old Capitol Building & museum a few miles up the road, which is free by the way.

    Exceeded Expectations

    June 14, 2012

    My son, his fiance and I very recently stayed in the Magnolia Suite. We were in Jackson to find a home to lease before he begins law school and she begins medical school. The staff was beyond helpful. It is more than a hotel, you feel like you're home (but even better). Their attention to detail and the little things make such a BIG difference. As stated in earlier posts, the food is at the restaurant is amazing and the breakfast is also amazing but our server made it even better. She was so helpful and patient with us when questioning her about the area for our home. My son has decided that he would like to live their permanently...Sorry this is so long, but if you are undecided about a hotel or this bed and breakfast (home) I can honestly say I will always stay at the Fairview Inn when in Jackson...

    Wonderful place to stay

    November 07, 2011

    The rooms are nice, but it is the food - wonderful cookies and cake available in the guest kitchen (near a small, cozy sitting room for guests) and the BEST BREAKFAST ever - that made this such a hit for my husband and I. Plus the Innkeepers and staff made a huge effort to be accomodating. A lovely place.

    Excellent Getaway

    September 17, 2011

    My husband and I spent the first night of our honeymoon here, and we were totally blown away. We were greeted the second we pulled into the circle driveway. The Fairview perfectly combines antiquity with elegance. The rooms are very spacious yet cozy. The 24-hour snack bar offers free soft drinks, coffee, and fresh baked goodies. We were able to enjoy some macaroons right out of the oven. After mingling with the other guests over breakfast, I was in need of printing our reservations for the next night's stay in New Orleans. When I informed the manager that the printer was out of paper, he practically ran to get me the printer paper. That was one of many instances of their impeccable service. I highly recommend this bed and breakfast!

    Simple and Elegant

    December 31, 2010

    Discovered this Inn over the Christmas holiday and was very pleased on all counts. The room was tastefully appointed and spacious, the staff friendly and helpful, and the overall environment made you want to stay longer. Great breakfast with homemade granola along with traditional style.

    June 2010 wedding

    June 26, 2010

    I chose the Fairview Inn for my June 2010 wedding and it was absolutely a perfect choice. The property is magnificently beautiful, the rooms clean, the food is great, and the staff ever so friendly. The setting was gorgeous and everyone loved the place and the food. I would definitely recommend this Inn whether for a wedding or for a weekend retreat. Thank you Fairview staff.
