HOTEL 45 EXTENSION
(+74 4423460 / +917 5882759 / no email)
Located just opposite Leonard Wood and SM Baguio. Dont be confused with the Hotel 45 just beside it. I got confused when I approached these hotels. Although almost similar in name, they say they have different managements. So your prices here would be the same with that of 45. Hotel Cheap rates but I doubt they have good service. Their reception was not receptive to my inquiries. Always booked because of their low rates so better make advance reservations here. Lowest rate is room for 2pax and Php1,300 Php1,600 room for 3pax. WIFI in room they say.

Near Harisson Road
HOTEL OLA
(+74 4425078 / no email / no mobile number)
Located in Abanao Road at the corner of Harisson Road. Its McDonalds near Burnham Park. if you are walking on Abanao, you might miss the entrance as you will have to pass through a donut shop (if you forgot or Mr. Dunkin Donut sorry). Their reception is on the second floor. Reception said they just acquired the place and expect more renovations (I hope). WIFI is in the lobby. Rates start for Php1,405 for 2pax double bed. As per my opinion, first check the rooms before you check in. My taste is very different from yours so better see for yourself.

Along Session Road
Benguet PRIME HOTEL
(+922 3333907 / +926 7358840 / +918 3047315 / benguetprimehotel@gmail.com)
Located along session road, actually this session in the upper road, so if you are coming from the bus station, this is walking distance for me. They do not have a printed rack rate so I lost information as to their rates. Their facebook shows 2013 rates so better call them first before checking in.
HOTEL 456
Located at Session Road, its still down Session Road and its a difficult thing to spot their entrance. The landmark to see it is when you see the 456 restaurants located on its ground floor. Its a chinese restaurant open 24 hours (I think - I saw it when I arrived at 5am). Call their sister hotel, Hotel 45 Extension herein. They are not a social media savvy hotel nor into marketing. I included herein them just in case you needed one along Session Road. Although I doubt its facilities so better see it first before booking.

Located on Kisad Road, has ample parking and has a facade partly hidden so their sign is your best bet in locating this hotel. WIFI in the lobby has the lowest downpayment for reservation and 50%. Rates start 4person for Php1,800 for a room as high as Php2,600 for a 7pax room. Not bad for the price.

Located on top of Leonard Wood Road, they have a good view of Burnham and some parts of Baguio. This is a 5 star hotel so amenities will be at a premium.

Other accommodations worth mentioning
Yang's Homestay
(+915 1184419)
Located at Queen of Peace Street, its a bit far from Session Road Php40 but a taxi ride costs for going there. We mentioned them here as they are also a good budget hotel worth looking into. Homestay means a home away from home in Taiwan, it does offer a feeling of home. Owners are cordial and attentive to your needs. Rates start at Php1,200 for 2pax dorm room and they have thus type of accommodation housing a group of 8-10pax is no problem for Php5,500. Can not wait to go back to this place.
