The Camp John Hay Manor Hotel.

An exquisite hotel situated in a former recreational facility for the American military. The site was an exclusive enclave off limits to most Filipinos until it was turned over to the local government in the 1990s, when the last of the US forces left their bases in the Philippines. The Manor Hotel, opened two years ago, a four-storey deluxe hotel offering conveniences similar to those found in most hotels and even serviced apartments in Metro Manila. It has mini bar, in-room safe and spacious rooms with kitchenette and suites with living and dining areas. This four-storey structure, designed to blend neatly with towering pine trees, provides a magnificent view of the Cordillera mountain range. Here, one can literally open windows to cool, fresh air. For a distinct touch, a Baguio stone exterior finish, shingled roofing and tinted glass windows add warm accents to Camp John Hay Manor’s cozy, relaxed and luxurious ambiance. As it is the best hotel so far in the area, it is pricey yet expect Manor Hotel to be fully booked with both locals and tourists during long weekends or holidays.

How to get there.

Camp John Hay Manor is located in Loakan Road which is a 10 minute-drive from the city center. The Philippine Military Academy is 15 minutes further up. Airport is 2 to 3 minutes drive.

To get to Baguio, it is reachable by land and air thru daily airconditioned buses from Manila and commercial flights in Loakan Airport.
