The Baguio of old at Green Valley Hotel & Resort
MANILA, Philippines - When talking about Baguio City, the conversation inevitably turns to nostalgia for much simpler times. Many still remember how traffic was minimal, people could stroll along Session Road without bumping into each other, and pollution was never an issue.
That may be true for the jaded, but the city still retains most of the qualities that many consider to be its true nature — peaceful, tranquil and still the undisputed summer capital of the Philippines. You can get a slice of the Baguio you remember at Green Valley Hotel and Resort.
Previously known as the Green Valley Country Club, the hotel gives you the Baguio of old in the midst of serene mountains, fog-blanketed flora, breathtaking vistas and temperatures a few degrees cooler than that of the city proper.
Located within a private subdivision across Mt. Sto. Tomas, the second highest peak in the Cordilleras, it is five minutes away by car from the Marcos Highway-Sto. Tomas Junction and 10 to 15 minutes drive to the city.
This landmark in the City of Pines offers guests single rooms, junior suites, two- to three-bedroom apartelles, spacious dining areas, cafés, lounges, gift shops and a viewdeck.
You won’t get bored here with numerous sports facilities, which include a six-lane tenpin and six-lane duckpin bowling area, badminton court, volleyball court, indoor tennis court, and swimming pool. It also has a billiard hall, table tennis area, air hockey tables, and a video arcade. Function rooms also serve conferences, meetings and important events.
Green Valley Hotel and Resort is located at Santo Tomas Road, Baguio City. Call at (074) 442-7286 or (074) 444-5140, or its Manila office at 671-8380 and 671-8350. E-mail at reservations@greenvalleybaguio.com or visit its website at www.greenvalleybaguio.com.
