Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has clean and well-maintained rooms with a good view but lacks soundproofing. The service is helpful and fluent in English, although there is an extra charge for waiting time. The location offers a perfect view of the lake and volcano and is close to amenities. The dining experience is great with music, though slightly expensive. The facilities are well-maintained.
The hotel offers a mixed experience with comfy rooms needing a bit of repair and being quite far from the dining area. Service stands out with courteous and helpful staff, especially towards guests requiring assistance, while the dining experience could use some improvement. The location is superb with discount access to a nearby theme park, but a bit distant from the coffee station.
The hotel offers a stunning view of Taal Volcano, with rooms in two separate buildings, though not the newest. The air conditioning had some issues. Overall, a good option for a relaxing stay.
The hotel offers a spacious room with a veranda boasting the perfect view of the Taal Volcano. While the main restaurant is quite far from the main hall, the room itself is big and spacious with an excellent view.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms at the Mountain Wing were better, equipped with a computer for kids, which was a godsend during the bad weather. However, the rooms felt rather old and not up to the standard expected for the money paid.
I was thrilled with the hotel's prime location, offering a perfect view of Taal and situated conveniently near Tagaytay's attractions. The rooms were clean and cozy, although not all had the desired lake view. The service was friendly, though there was an oversight with seating. The dining experience was fantastic, especially with the egg station for customized meals. The facilities were top-notch, enhancing my stay overall.
