Pig and Whistle hotel – Meru Hotels

A ramshackle run-down hotel on a hill off the road to Embu .

There are cottages in the grounds, hot water, and some of those built in the 1930s have original furnishings and fittings. The hotel has a handsome central building from the colonial period with a good restaurant (mid-range), with outside tables separated by flowering hedges, friendly staff and excellent security.
