While doing Baguio tours is the main priority for any visitor, picking a good place to stay serves as the cherry on top. The perceived most important part of choosing a hotel was thought to be the budget. However, going that route immediately puts you at the risk of not being able to explore better options. Other things you can consider when choosing a hotel include preferred amenities and proximity to places to go in Baguio and where to eat in Baguio.

On one hand, if you plan to spend a lot of time inside your hotel, then you should consider all factors equally. But if you plan to spend more time exploring Baguio activities including unique and fun things to do in Baguio like Baguio forest bathing, visiting the BenCab museum, Tam-awan Village, Burnham Park, and Mines View Park, then preferred amenities should weigh less compared to the other two factors when choosing a Baguio hotel booking or booking a hotel in the Philippines.
