FAIRMONT THE NORFOLK

Historic city hotel on Harry Thuku Road in central Nairobi. Airport journey times depend on the airport, route and traffic.

A PLACE IN YOUR JOURNEY

A DIFFERENT OUTLOOK.
A PLACE TO PAUSE.

Fairmont The Norfolk provides a garden-centred base on Harry Thuku Road in central Nairobi. The historic buildings and courtyards give it a different rhythm from the city’s newer towers, while its central position suits travellers combining urban plans with the beginning or end of a safari.

The current operator lists one hundred and eight rooms and seventeen suites. Room choice ranges from Fairmont and Deluxe categories to courtyard and veranda options, with several suite layouts. Families can request explicitly interconnecting Fairmont or Deluxe allocations, which is more useful than assuming every large room can accommodate additional guests.

Nobu would consider The Norfolk for travellers who value a central location, established shared spaces and time around the gardens. Dining, afternoon tea, fitness and spa facilities offer ways to spend a quieter day between journeys. Airport transfers should be planned for the actual airport and traffic conditions, rather than relying on a short marketing estimate.
