The Fairmont The Norfolk is a legendary Nairobi hotel, opened in 1904 and long the starting point for safaris into the Kenyan interior. Its low-rise, colonial-style buildings surround lush gardens, with elegant rooms, the famous Lord Delamere Terrace and a rich history entwined with the country’s early days. Blending heritage and comfort in a central yet leafy setting, it offers a gracious and atmospheric base for exploring the city and remains one of Nairobi’s most iconic addresses.
