The best among the rest.

Super 5 star and beyond.

Everything is nice... From staff to the rooms and just the whole hotel... Two thumbs up... Include my toes. =)

This is the place to be.

What are you waiting for? Quit reading and check in already! :p

We stayed at the Manor and it was a very reasonable hotel for a one-night stay. You probably would not go all the way there just to stay at the place (unless you were working in Manila during the hot season and needed a break somewhere cooler) but if you are on the way to see the rice terraces, it is a good place to stop. It is not too far from Baguio proper so you can use the opportunity to visit the town. Rooms and food are not amazing but they are pretty decent.

The first time I went to Baguio was in 1989, a year before the killer earthquake devastated the summer capital of the Philippines. I was only 12 years old. Two years and two decades later, I returned. So much has changed in the city. I find Baguio crowded, main roads with heavy traffic, Burnham Park seems neglected. My memory of Baguio when I was a child was so vivid I was somehow saddened with what happened to Baguio. The city now look and feel like Manila, except colder.

Back then, I was so awed by Camp John Hay and even dreamt of living inside the camp when I grow up. I'm glad that there is already a hotel, The Manor. I made sure I got to stay there while in Baguio.

Lots of facilities within the Camp are still in existence. Some houses were converted into restaurants. The mini golf looks so old but still enjoyable. The tennis courts are not well maintained but playable. The picnic areas are still there, just the way I remembered them. The tall trees are as amazing. The golf course worth noticing. A new attraction, Tree Top Adventure is fun and thrilling.

What to find inside Camp John Hay:

The Manor Hotel
- a four-storey structure with very impressive architecture.

The Mile Hi Center
-strip of restaurants (Carlo's Pizza, Little John's, Mile Hi-Diner etc) and shops (Nike, Adidas,convenience store etc)

- House of Waffles and Starbucks

- Camp John Hay Golf Club

-Tree Top Adventure, Picnic Area, Pet Cemetery

We stayed at the Manor on January 16 2012. When we checked out the first room had cockroaches on the carpet the staff didn't even seem bothered with no apology. We ended up getting a different room and it was somewhat cleaner. I haven't stayed in other hotels in Baguio, so I can't compare but the hotel room seems priced well above the quality. The restraints and entrance are very nice and had live piano and sacksaphone music playing. It was an okay experience and from what I have seen of other hotels would probably stay again, but don't get to excited about the room when you arrive. The staff, other than the roach, we're very friendly and helpful.
