Camp John Hay Manor

I decided to feature Camp John Hay in Baguio, Philippines, as they currently have an ongoing promo for the 2013 rainy season.


We visited Camp John Hay during our Baguio trip last July with some friends from the East Coast. We arrived around 10AM and immediately explored the nice grounds of the Manor since the weather that morning was beautiful.





We decided to have lunch at Chef Billy King's Le Chef restaurant, located at the ground floor of Camp John Hay Manor.  It was also going to be perfect for Al Fresco dining given the nice prevailing weather that day.


Nice relaxing  Baguio vacation
Or so we thought...


Well now at least you know the advantage of coming here during the summer.  But it was just going to be a minor quibble to an otherwise awesome vacation.  We just moved to the indoor dining area of Le Chef/ and started ordering.







We probably spent a total of around P1000 (US$$23)  per person for the food items above.  It was a complete meal, from the salad up to the desert. Wine and other alcoholic drinks are not included in that amount though.  But for that amount, the food was well worth it that we were all satisfied (and also busog ) after lunch.


After lunch, the hotel staff showed us the 2-bedroom suite which according to their website sleeps 1 - 5 persons.  The room was actually spacious enough to accommodate more, but it is usually hotel policy to not let guests stuff too many people in one room.

Trivia: Camp John Hay a former R&R facility for US military personnel
Before I forget, Camp John Hay Manor's website  http://www.campjohnhay.ph/  currently has a web promo wherein a  2-bedroom Forest View suite goes for only P7000 ($163) instead of the regular rate of P12,000 ($279).

If you are coming with a smaller party, the 1-bedroom suite, which is good for 1-3 persons, costs only P4900 (US$113) instead of P8,600 (US$200).

The promo expires on October 15th, which is around 2 weeks from now.

As mentioned previously in my other posts, I DO NOT have sponsored posts here.  ALL my featured travels and food trips in this blog were paid for using personal funds.
