the Swahili-culture has its roots in Lamu, but hand
finished, richly carved furniture and doors. Old 18th
century stone houses, women dressed in the traditional
bui-bui, donkey caravans, fishermen in their dhows with
huge triangular sails giving the atmosphere of the busy
days of the past. The narrow streets have about 4000
donkeys, which take the place of cars, lorries and
taxis.

the seashore. It has 22 rooms all of which are
air-conditioned. There is a restaurant on the rooftop
and a more spacious one on the terrace serving seafood,
as its specialty. There are sunbathing, diving,

one of the worlds most romantic hotels. When it first
opened on Christmas of 1904, it was to spearhead
traditions, which are still unmatched today. Nairobi as
a capital of Kenya grew all around the Norfolk. It soon
became a gathering place for new arrivals, businessmen
and government officials. Big game hunters, with clients
such as aristocrats and adventurers who came to

service and the fine cuisine it is now a member of "the
leading hotels of the world".
