So for those heading to Baguio City, my tip for you are to play your itinerary properly so that you can enjoy your stay and I suggest check in at Eurotel Hotel at the 123 Abanao Extension at the Brgy Rizal Park just a few walk from Burnham Park and Session Road. It’s very affordable and with all the amenities that it offers like WI-FI access you can upload and share all the photos you had taken during the festival on your Facebook and Blogs. Aside from that it has breakfast and lunch buffet that is very affordable and perfect on you budget. So enjoy your stay on Baguio City at the 2012 Panagbenga Festival!
