Built in 1909 during the American colonial period, Casa Vallejo's design reflects the practical yet graceful design sensibilities of that era. Its structure was originally conceived as a government dormitory, which explains the straightforward layout and utilitarian form. Yet over time, it has become a standing example of American-period mountain architecture, much like other preserved and restored sites in Baguio City.

At its core, Casa Vallejo is a wooden structure framed with native pine, galvanized iron, and sawali, a traditional woven split-bamboo mat. These local materials made building the hotel easier and well-suited to Baguio’s cool climate. Large windows and generous overhangs are hallmarks of its design, offering ventilation and protection from heavy rains and mountain sun.

Inside the hotel, the architecture is modest but atmospheric, combining rustic details with clean colonial elements. Wooden balustrades, vintage fixtures, and colonial-style window shutters maintain the building’s authenticity.

Casa Vallejo offers an on-site restaurant, Hill Station, that serves European, American, Asian, and Filipino dishes, a reflection of the city's storied past. Nestled in the lower level of the heritage hotel, Hill Station bears warm and rustic interiors, wooden beams, large windows, and antique furniture. Its ambiance evokes the feeling of a European mountain lodge, but within the slopes of Baguio.

Aside from its a la carte dishes, Hill Station offers special buffet menus and dishes for events like Father's Day or Mother's Day.

Opening Hours:
Monday to Thursday: 07:30 AM to 10:00 PM
Friday to Sunday: 07:00 AM to 10:00 PM
