welcome to this baguio hotel blog :)

Thank you for visiting this Baguio hotel blog. :)

I decided to start this Baguio hotel blog because it has always been one of those places which fascinate me.  I've been there very many times, spread out over very many years.  I'm a little bit familiar with how it was quite some time ago, when it was a lot more raw than it is now.  I've also been there recently, well relatively recently, so I have an idea of what a current traveler will come across if he or she goes up to Baguio.  I've been wanting to write about Baguio for quite a while, but the idea of having a blog all about the city was a little bit daunting.  By choosing to focus on one particular aspect, such as the Baguio tourism industry, specifically the hotels and lodging, which include other smaller forms of lodging such as inns, apartelles, and the like, then I have a venue for discussing Baguio City with a particular focus, so the idea of blogging about it doesn't seem so overwhelming.

After all, a discussion of Baguio hotels will inevitably lead to a discussion of many other things. For example, I intend to start off my posts by focusing first on how exactly to get to Baguio City, so that will include for example the trip from Metro Manila to Baguio.  I can discuss the roads, the fog, those sorts of things and then tie this all to Baguio lodging by finishing with a discussion of where travelers will probably end up once they arrive in the city.

Also, when I discuss Baguio hotels, I'll be discussing the tourist trade of the city.  For example, I might mention which particular hotels are near certain key tourist spots, that sort of thing.  And when I talk about Baguio hotels, I'll also be discussing some of the other issues which both locals and tourists have to deal with when they are in the city, during peak tourist season.  For example, water tends to be an issue so that when a traveler arrives in Baguio City, and he chooses to stay in one of the smaller forms of lodging, he or she will probably want to make sure that there is sufficient water available for bathing and other needs.  After all, Baguio is geographically located in such a way that water at times can be difficult to come by.

So basically what I'm trying to say is that I started this Baguio hotel blog both because I wanted to talk about Baguio tourism and lodging, and also because I want to be able to discuss other things that interest me about the city, and which anyway have an effect on or a relationship with Baguio hotels.

Again, I'll probably be focusing first in my next several posts on traveling to Baguio as well as traveling within the city itself.  Then I'll proceed to discuss some of the different lodging options available to tourists who go up to Baguio, but I'll probably be discussing them rather generally in the beginning.  Once I'm able to post on Baguio hotels a bit in more general terms, then I'll start to focus on individual places where tourists can go.  Let me add though that I won't be giving any recommendations as to particular hotels to go to, because I don't feel qualified to do so, and I really don't want to have to worry about claims of favoritism or something similar.  I'll talk about what I come across online and my impressions, and then I'll leave it up to readers to determine whether something I discuss is worth more research, and merits additional attention.

Whatever happens, I hope at least that the information I provide here on Baguio hotels, even if it really isn't all that comprehensive is still helpful somehow to those who would read it.

Again, thank you for reading this Baguio hotel blog. :)
