Fairlawn a well managed and serviced small property near to Indian museum in Sudder street just few meters away from crowded main road. January 1st week I stayed there. My room no-7 is in first floor. Common spaces in first floor decorated carefully, showing the past glory. Bath room was neat and clean. Except me all guests were from Europe.... More

I agree with the majority of the positive reviews. This hotel has to been seen to appreciate it. It is like walking back into colonial days. Certainly there are signs that it needs some updating. The photocopier at reception, for example, is on its last legs. Bathrooms need some attention. But considering the cost, the great location and the helpful... More

Walking into the Fairlawn Hotel was like a childhood memory of a visit to an eccentric, eldery relative's house, but with everything "super-sized".

I've been to India many times, but always in the South which is much more gentle and less poverty stricken than the North, so I've been told. I was surprised at how confontational I found Calcutta - the streets of the city are really shocking in their filth, poverty and decay. (I know this sounds pathetic - Tourist finds India... More

The bathroom is super good - neat and... More
