Baguio Hotel Reservations & Accommodation Guide

Baguio is a city on the Cordillera mountain range in the middle of the island of Luzon, in the Philippines. Due to its cool mountain weather, Baguio is considered the summer capital of the Philippines. Because of its many pine trees it is also called the City of Pines.

Baguio is the "Flower Garden City of the North". One need only visit Burnham Park and admire its backdrop of beautiful and colorful flowers. Baguio Floral Festivals are held in February. The city is also famous for its towering pine trees.

Tourism is one of Baguio's main industries. During the year end holidays some people from the lowlands would prefer spending their vacation in the city. This is for them to experience the cold temperature they rarely get from their home provinces. Also, during the summer season specially during the Holy Week, tourists from all over the country would flock to the city. During this time, the total number of people in the city would double. To accommodate all these people, there are more than 80 hotels and inns available for them to check in. There are also some local residents that accept transients for a certain fee which is normally lower than the standard hotel fee. For those who can't afford renting a room, they would camp out in some local parks although this is no longer allowed to prevent the parks from getting damaged. Local festivities such as the Panagbenga Festival also attracts both local and foreign tourists.

To get to Baguio from outside of Luzon, one would still need to pass through Manila or Clark airport and from there get to Baguio by either of the following ways: bus or plan or car.
