Lemuria Inn is a cozy and relaxed guesthouse for travelers located in Pasay City, tucked away in an old family compound.  It was built in 1997 by Tony Bosch, who wanted to provide travelers with a nice transient home, using recycled materials from other old houses. 

The compound where Lemuria Inn stands was acquired by Bosch's grandparents in 1935.  It was formerly a plantation of IKMU, the leaves used in chewing betel nut.  The houses were built by Japanese artisans, whose foreman turned out to be an intelligence officer of the Japanese Imperial Army.  The compound was completed in 1936, and was rented out to, among others, the Swiss Consul.  When the Japanese occupied, the compound was confiscated and the Japanese Imperial Navy took over.  During WW II the family home in Malate was destroyed and Bosch's grandparents moved to the compound in Pasay, where the next two generations were raised.

The area has been home not only to the Bosch family, but to countless local artists and musicians as well. Pepito Bosch, Tony's late brother, was a patron of the arts and Bon Vivant.  Here, artists hung out and created, songs were written, and ideas were challenged.  It has always been a place where people found sanctuary, a legacy that Tony Bosch has continued.
