The hot water took forever to reach my shower. On my last morning there just wasn’t any and I had to have a cold shower. I was very frustrated about this. I spoke with the front desk and while they apologised, they didn’t do anything to remedy when I checked out.
Aside from this, the hotel was an oasis, it was relaxing stay. I particularly liked the bar.

We had just completed a two week tour of East Africa and The Norfolk was the perfect place to relax for the final few days! At the start of the holiday, I read "An Unsuitable Woman" by Kat Gordon which is mainly set at the Norfolk (The Happy Valley set) and it was so exciting to imagine the characters in this charming hotel.
Nothing was too much trouble for staff - whether on Reception, by the pool, in the restaurants and bars or at the security gate.
We ate twice in the bar and the food was fabulous!
Comfortable and well appointed rooms.
Location is great - near the CBD - and we were able to easily get Ubers to other parts of the city. The National Theatre is opposite and we went to see a show there which was great fun!
Dear Ms. H.,
Thank you for your wonderful review regarding your recent stay with us at Fairmont The Norfolk. We are thrilled to hear that you found our hotel to be the perfect place to unwind after your extensive tour of East Africa. It is especially delightful to know that you enjoyed the charm of our establishment while reminiscing about the characters from "An Unsuitable Woman." We take great pride in our dedicated team, and it is gratifying to learn that their efforts made your experience enjoyable, whether at the reception, by the pool, or in our dining areas. Additionally, we are pleased that you found your room comfortable and well-appointed, and that our location served you well for your city explorations.

I used to frequently stay at The Norfolk some years ago and returned for the first time in August 2026. It's great to note that the property is still as charming as it was in the past. While the rooms are the same (no renovation yet), the fittings and fixtures are still in fantastic condition. The rooms are very comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful. I would like to highlight a great experience with George from the front desk. Thank you

The Norfolk is a genuine oasis in the heart of Nairobi. Despite being in a busy city, the hotel feels calm and secluded, centred around a beautiful courtyard and gardens that provide a welcome retreat from the bustle outside. The facilities are excellent, particularly the gym and pool, which were both well maintained and a pleasure to use. What really stood out, however, was the warmth and professionalism of the staff. An elegant hotel with real character, exceptional hospitality, and a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere. I would be delighted to return.

We stayed here both at the beginning and end of our trip on Odyssey Unlimited. We were advised NOT to leave the property by the hotel and OU so we relaxed at the pool, used the small gym and enjoyed the landscape. It was a beautiful spot. We did not care for the Tatoo restaurant though. The staff was busy with a big group and my fish arrived under cooked. They did fix though.

The Fairmont The Norfolk has a lovely environment and an excellent location, which we really appreciated. We checked‑in around 4 p.m. and specifically requested a quiet room at check‑in, and the staff confirmed they could accommodate this. We were assigned a room under the staircase and thought it would be acceptable. However, we didn't notice the problem until the next morning. We found the housekeeping linen closet is next to our room and the cleaning cart was positioned right outside our door. Constant noise started from just after 6 a.m., and we got virtually no proper rest.
Besides, during the turndown service in the afternoon on check‑in day, a housekeeping staff member knocked on our door but opened it immediately without waiting for our response. This made us feel very uncomfortable, so we declined the turndown service.
It is a beautiful hotel, yet these service‑related issues kind of affected our experience.
Dear Ms. C.,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Fairmont The Norfolk. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated our lovely environment and excellent location. However, I sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. It is concerning to learn that your request for a quiet room was not met, and that noise from the housekeeping linen closet disrupted your rest. Please know that we take such feedback seriously, as we strive to provide our guests with a restful and comfortable experience. Additionally, I regret that the turndown service was not conducted in a manner that made you feel at ease. We understand the importance of privacy and will emphasize this with our housekeeping team to ensure they adhere to proper protocols in the future. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our services and guest experience.
