Fairmont Hotels & Resorts are making a mark in Kenya with three new or upgrades venues: Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Park, Fairmont Norfolk and Fairmont Mara Safari Club.
Their website says that “Fairmont Hotels & Resorts is the largest luxury hotel company in North America, with a distinctive collection and a worldwide reputation for excellence.” Well I’ll take their word for it, because when I travel, this kind of accommodation is way out of my league.
They also say that: “Fairmont Hotels & Resorts is the world's most storied hotel brand. For more than a century, our grand collection of fabled castles, secluded lodges, storied meeting places and modern retreats, have hosted the rich and famous, kings and queens, Presidents and Prime Ministers and stars of the stage and screen.”
Fairmont Mara Safari Club
Well, my interest in this hotel group that seems to be represented in more than ten countries, is that the Fairmont Group has moved into Kenya in a big way, recently opening the exclusive, luxury tented Fairmont Mara Safari Club, right on the edge of the world renowned Masai Mara Reserve.
Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club
Soon this resort will be joined by the Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club, at the base of Mount Kenya. The Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club features 120 rooms in cottages, villas and suites on 100 acres of grounds, as well as a nine-hole golf course and other facilities. This is a perfect base for safaris.
Fairmont Norfolk in Nairobi
The third Fairmont property in Kenya will be the legendary Fairmont Norfolk in Nairobi Originally opened in 1904, Fairmont Norfolk stands as one of Africa’s most talked about gathering places. Today, the 165-room property serves as a hub of Nairobi business and ideal safari departure point, with four restaurants, an outdoor pool, an elegant ballroom and four function rooms.
