Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel, Colonial luxury hotel in Nairobi, Kenya

The Norfolk Hotel comprises 170 rooms across five blocks featuring Tudor-style architecture with landscaped gardens, heated outdoor pool, and four restaurants.

The Lord Delamere Terrace acts as a central meeting point where international travelers and locals gather for meals and conversations throughout the day.

Located 20 kilometers from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and 3 kilometers from central Nairobi, the hotel provides airport transfers and currency exchange services.

The hotel's French restaurant features an extensive wine cellar storing international labels, while the American steakhouse presents premium cuts of meat.
