I stayed here on a work trip 8 nights in Nairobi, it was a perfect location and hotel to return to in the evenings after being out all day for work. The hotel restaurants are alright if you are staying in for the evening. The room was lovely and spacious with a view on the inside courtyard.

I keep on coming back to this place. tried the other`luxury` ones , the new ones in Nairobi , but is is for me how a hotel has to be. Welcoming , clean , good food , the bar is perfect , the Tatu a little overpriced , the breakfast terrace is so nice and so much food you can... More

I stayed for three nights at The Norfolk and had a fantastic time. The room itself was very nice and quiet, overlooking the main courtyard, the room service, bar and restaurants were all of a very high standard and the hotel gym was also great. I had a very peaceful and relaxing stay which I didn't necessarily expect because it... More

The Norfolk is certainly my favorite hotel in Nairobi and from my experience probably the best in town. I also believe that it competes well with similar class hotels elsewhere in the world. The hotel has a number of things going for it. Above all there is a wonderful fusion of the old British colonial style of the property and... More

Stayed one night here during my 3 night stay in Nairobi and this was the best hotel. The rooms and bathrooms were large and the service was fantastic. I really enjoyed the room looking out to the beautiful courtyard, with the very comfortable bed and large flat screen TV. For a hotel in the downtown Nairobi it was very quiet... More

The hotel was in process of renovation but the friendly staff were very helpful and welcoming. We sat in the bar and watched Margaret Thatcher's funeral on the television. The staff very helpfully gave us a table... More

I stayed at the hotel being a basic member of Fairmont President Club program (which still gives free internet access and free gym access to all members, therefore it is worth joining even if you never plan to stay at Fairmont property again). I was traveling alone on a business trip Hotel is located in central Nairobi in what I... More

At the Norfolk, you do not get the "authentic" African experience, but it is an oasis for everything going on around you. The rooms are well-appointed, the restaurants excellent and the staff professional and anxious to please. You won't see wild animals, but the gardens are relaxing to sit and watch the birds or pet the gray cat who visits.... More

The title of my review is how the hotel describes itself. Opening in 1904, it is still very "sophisticated", spotless and very welcoming. We stayed for 2 nights prior to leaving on a safari. The rooms and grounds are beautiful and well kept. The location is great and only a short walk to the hectic city center. It has also... More
