CITY HOTELS<br />

HISTORIC<br />

FAIRMONT THE NORFOLK<br />

If you’re looking for a place with history,<br />

then The Norfolk, as it started out in 1904,<br />

is it. Sitting on the Lord Delamere Terrace,<br />

one can still imagine what it must have been<br />

like for a guest in the early days, drinking a<br />

beer overlooking green wilderness that has<br />

inevitably given way to the city spread.The<br />

then Jewish-owned hotel went through huge<br />

upheaval in 1980. These days, it’s a rare,<br />

high-class idyll in a quieter part of the centre,<br />

and hosts two excellent restaurants. Location:<br />
