Norfolk Fairmont is easily the classiest and most beautiful hotel we have stayed in. Everything including staff and service are unparalleled. Plus it's Nairobi's oldest hotel, where US President Roosevelt, British royalty, Ernest Hemingway and a score of other historical figures have stayed - and loved.

This property is outstanding! From the moment you walk in off the busy street to the quiet of their lush gardens. They have excellent security and you feel very safe. The lobby and restaurants have been tastefully decorated. From George at the front desk, Sidney in the lobby and Margaret in the bar the service was outstanding! Very interesting hotel with a wonderful history easy to navigate the city from here. The staff make all the difference here.

recently stayed for two nights at the Fairmont in Canyon, and while most of my stay was pleasant, I encountered an issue on the last day. The hotel provided a very small, single-use toothpaste, which wasn’t enough for the duration of my stay. As I was heading to a safari, I requested a few extra small toothpaste tubes to take with me, but the front desk was unhelpful and questioned why I needed more. They even mentioned that since I was checking out soon, they couldn’t provide any more, even though I still had a few hours left before check-out. Their attitude, including the manager’s, felt dismissive and discriminatory. I’m very disappointed to experience such poor service at a hotel of this caliber.

This was certainly a grand dame 40 years ago when my wife first stayed at The Norfolk, but we found the place tired and the whole routine a bit sketchy. We were given a room that was not what we booked (booking specifically called for a King bed, but we received a Queen and the hotel staff tried to convince us that indeed the bed was a "King-like" bed). I was given two separate quotes for a car service, one twice the other, and both were a multiple of what Uber quoted for the same ride. I sat outside enjoying a cigar and a waieter asked me if i had an "extra cigar" for him. That's never happened to me anywhere. Also of note, the manager was quite welcoming until he saw we had a problem with the room and he then disappeared faster than you could imagine. Indeed it's a grand dame that has seen better days.
