But given Baguio’s popularity, everyone else might be out thinking the same thing. So, the next time you’re spending the cold nights in the City of Pines, consider these hotel bars in Baguio so you don’t have to go too far anymore.

The fireplace adds a nice touch to the place and keeps you warm and cozy during Baguio’s cold nights.

Enjoy the featured Drink of the Month at the restaurant’s main bar or order your favorite cocktail as a nightcap.
Meanwhile, Par 7 is known as a favorite spot for golfers, but it also welcomes non-golfers just the same. Unlike the privacy that The Verandah provides, the atmosphere in this cocktail lounge bar is best for hanging out with your friends and peers.

The name comes from the fact that Baguio City is always 8 degrees cooler than the temperature in the lowlands, particularly in Manila. The lounge only seats up to 20 people so it never gets too crowded or rowdy, giving you all the peace and quiet you’ll need to enjoy your sweet time over a glass of cocktail or a bottle of wine.

Room 601, the hotel’s newest bar, is an executive bar which not only provides exclusivity within its walls but also has a sumptuous menu to offer its patrons.
