About this property

Welcome to Citylight Hotel

Citylight Hotel stands as a modest yet well-situated accommodation option in the heart of Baguio City. Rated 4 stars, it offers guests a clean and comfortable environment with essential amenities such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and room service. Its prime location on Gen. Luna Road places it within a short walking distance from prominent landmarks like Baguio Cathedral and the lively Session Road, making it an ideal base for exploring the city's vibrant culture and bustling streets.

Guests frequently praise the hotel’s friendly and accommodating staff, who contribute greatly to the overall experience. Notably, the warm greetings from the Kuya Guard create a welcoming atmosphere that fosters a sense of belonging—a rare touch that elevates an otherwise basic stay. The Penthouse restaurant, serving breakfast through dinner, adds convenience for those looking to unwind with quality meals and drinks without leaving the premises.

However, Citylight Hotel is best suited for travelers seeking practicality over luxury. Several reviews mention certain shortcomings, such as the need for room and amenity upgrades, lack of refrigeration and microwave, and minor issues with water heating. The bathrooms notably lack exhaust fans and bidet facilities, which signal opportunities for improvement. Yet, these are balanced by a decent breakfast buffet and a clean environment that makes for a hassle-free stay.

The hotel’s charm lies in its location and approachability. It provides a straightforward, no-frills lodging experience with key conveniences like free parking, laundry service, and kid-friendly accommodations. Although not upscale, its accessibility and central positioning make it a smart choice for visitors who want to immerse themselves in Baguio’s urban buzz while enjoying reliable, kind service.

In the end, Citylight Hotel embodies the spirit of a hospitable urban retreat—functional, friendly, and centrally placed. It leaves a lasting impression not through opulence but through genuine care and situational advantage, serving as an excellent stepping stone for anyone eager to explore the pine-scented charm of Baguio.

Basic hotel, no fridge, no microwave. Beds are just box springs with mattress covers. 15 minutes before hot water "supposedly" my water never got hot. They do provide shampoo, toothbrush and 1 roll of tissue.

Talk about incredible! This hotel and its staff went out of their way to provide exceptional service! Not only were they incredibly welcoming and friendly, but they went above and beyond to meet our needs and answer all our questions with such commendable kindness. Huge shoutout to Kuya Guard for always greeting us with the friendliest smiles whenever we came in or out of the hotel. He, along with another staff member whose position I sadly didn't catch, went out of their way to help us get a taxi. And let me tell you—it was scorching hot outside, yet they didn’t hesitate for a second to ensure we were taken care of. Their effort and hospitality truly touched me. My stay here has been absolutely unforgettable, and without a doubt, if I ever visit Baguio again, this will be my go-to hotel!

Near Cathedral and Session Road - Perfect location for exploring Baguio. The Penthouse serves Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. But it is also perfect for drinking and wine session at late night.

Room is clean and good. Breakfast buffet is great. However, bathroom lacks exhaust, bidet, blower, and heater takes 5-10 minutes to heat water.

We love our stay here. It’s not that difficult to find and the location is perfect as it is near Session Road.
