Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel

Fairmont the Norfolk Notel Nairobi

A classic and elegant East African hotel, Fairmont the Norfolk is a five-star establishment that once formed the hub of the now large metropolis of Nairobi. The town and city spread out from this historical focal point. The much-loved treasure of a hotel remains a popular destination in Nairobi today. A key feature of the property is the incredible gardens brimming with plant life and home to over 10 species of birds.

The hotel boasts a complement of deluxe rooms and luxurious suites, all positioned in the surrounding gardens. Other amenities include the Pambo Spa and Health Club and an outdoor heated swimming pool. Guests can dine in comfort and style in the hotel with two restaurants to choose from. Dine al fresco on the patio at the hotel’s award-winning Tatu Restaurant or indulge in authentic Kenyan cuisine at the Lord Delamere Terrace.

Exploring Nairobi National Park (NNP), which is approximately 6.5 miles from your hotel, is a fantastic way to experience wildlife close to the city.
