Fairmont The Norfolk

About

Fairmont The Norfolk is Nairobi's oldest hotel, open since 1904 and still setting the standard. Expect colonnaded verandas, manicured gardens, and the hum of the Delamere Terrace crowd. Perfect for a long lunch, a sundowner, or a base for safari departures.

Fairmont The Norfolk has anchored Nairobi's social life for over a century. It opened in 1904 and hosted explorers, colonists, and heads of state. The Delamere Terrace remains the place to watch Nairobi pass by over a cold Tusker. Inside, rooms blend colonial-era detail with modern comfort. The Lord Delamere Restaurant serves dependable continental and Kenyan dishes. The gardens are quietly spectacular, especially in the late afternoon light. Families, business travelers, and safari groups all move through here naturally. Its location on Harry Thuku Road puts you close to the University and the CBD. Book a classic room facing the garden for the best experience.
