About Fairfield House Hotel
Fairfield House occupies a restored Victorian mansion on Ayr's seafront, a short walk from the beach and the Low Green, and trades on the country-house feel of its original building alongside a full range of modern hotel facilities. The 44 rooms range from Classic doubles to the Carnegie Suite, many with views out across the Firth of Clyde toward Arran.
The hotel's restaurant has held AA rosettes for its cooking, with a menu built around Ayrshire produce alongside vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, and afternoon tea served in the lounge. An on-site health club with swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym gives guests a reason to linger beyond dinner.
Fairfield House is well used to hosting weddings and events alongside its leisure trade, so the hotel has genuine capacity and polish for both a golfing weekend and a more formal stay, with parking and proximity to Ayr town centre adding to its convenience.

What guests say
Gorgeous hotel with large spacious rooms. Perfect stay for our small family with two little kids, lovely clean large room with plenty of space for the little ones to run/crawl around. Beds were very comfortable, even the pull out sofa. Nice large bathroom with separate shower and bath which the better half enjoyed relaxing in after a busy holiday. There is also a pool which was great for the kids. We had both dinner and breakfast here and they were equally excellent as were the staff, friendly and helpful. There's plenty of parking and it's in a great location. I would recommend staying here to anybody.

Hard to understand why this place gets good reviews / this hotel is straight out of the 1970s. From the dinner menu to the breakfast to the decor in the rooms. Nothing has been touched since perhaps 1985. Play seems busy and popular, I can only imagine it’s through lack of alternatives. How hard could it be to go around with a can of white paint?

Spent 2 evenings here. First night was noisy due to ongoing building work and we mentioned this to a lovely, helpful and supportive female receptionist (2 men were slightly dour)! She apologised profusely and arranged for us to move to the Carnegie Suite (we didn’t know this) and it was a dream! 4 post bed (great mattress and bedding) and a 2 person jacuzzi bath, 2 sinks and a big shower, slept so much better and so did my partner as he snored loudly in my ear. Massive thanks to that woman and I apologise for not getting her name. Breakfast is plentiful and a wide variety of hot food and cold buffet style. Evening meals are also tasty and large portions (haggis tower was very good). Our first room was also large and comfortable and both rooms and hotel in its entirety was very clean. There is no lift so if you have mobility issues phone ahead. We had no transport so the hotel is about a 20 minute slow walk from train station. All in all we only have good things to say and would recommend and stay again. Thank you ✔️

Fairfield House Hotel Staff were very pleasant and helpful. We only booked a Classic Double room and was given room 25. There was no view to speak of but the bedroom was large and clean with everything we needed. There was a jacuzzi bath and separate shower in a very spacious bathroom which was clean and had plenty shower gels etc. then to our surprise there was another door leading to a lounge with sofa and large telly etc. It was excellent for the price! The swimming pool, sauna etc was great too. Location was good and was near the beach and children’s play area and it was only about a 10 min walk to shops, bars and restaurants. We had a very comfortable 2 night stay at the Fairfield House Hotel. Can thoroughly recommend it.
