"I have traveled to eighty countries over the course of my adult life, and the staff at the Fairmont Norfolk Hotel - top to bottom - is the most exceptional group I have ever encountered. They are competent, responsive and above all friendly. Every single member of the staff greeted us when we encountered them, and they accommodated all of our requests."
