4th Dec 1998

I'm 44 years old, from California, USA.




The Townhouse was opened by Bill and Lorna after they had traveled and worked in Asia, Europe, and the U.S.A. for almost ten years. They have stayed in bamboo, beach huts, Asian guesthouses, Spanish pensionnes, American and European campgrounds, backpacker dormitories, Korean yogwans and Japanese ryokans on shoestring budgets. They met each other "on the road" while traveling in Hong Kong and Korea in the early 80s and got married in 1985. During a trip to Lhasa, Tibet, when Lorna was 6 months pregnant with Camilla in 1986, they decided that it was time to raise a family. They knew that they would miss the energy, excitement and adventure of world travel so they opened the doors of their small, 3 bedroom, 2 bath townhouse for travelers as a hobby.
The first guests were five Swedish young men Bill met in Hong Kong who had met on the trans-Siberian railway; since then world travelers from 78 countries have stayed at The Townhouse. After a few years, guests had written to Lonely Planet, Jens Peters' Publications and other travel guides recommending The Townhouse Hotel as a safe, clean and friendly place to stay in Manila at the lowest rates. Now, after expansion projects Bill and Lorna have created a warm, family atmosphere where travelers meet and exchange travel stories with 25 safe, clean, comfortable bedrooms and dormitory bedspaces available.
