Taal Vista Hotel Tagaytay

 
We are frequent Tagaytay travelers, but this is the first time we have actually stayed at Taal Vista. 
 
We got a Premier room at the Lake Wing with a grand view of the Taal Lake. 
 
Reviews weren't exaggerating, when they said it is a long walk to the Lake Wing of the hotel, but it was well worth the extra walk. It was a cozy room with a balcony with Taal Volcano as the backdrop! 
 
A sip of a regular 3-in-1 coffee, almost tasted brewed (hahaha!) and expensive, while seated at the balcony! 
 
Who cares about the room, when you have this as your view?
 
 
Bed was comfortable, but not heavenly...


They could have done a lot better in terms of toiletries... Ace Suites were way better than this!
Also their towels are quite worn out and needed replacement.

Bathroom is 3 way - I am not a fan though! It has no door (I honestly thought it must have broken and instead of repairing management decided to just take it out :P)!

The shower, sink and toilet were separated only by smoked-glass doors.



RATING:
  • LOCATION - Perfect
  • SERVICE - AAA+++ Check-in  and check-out were a breeze, Staff were all very attentive and efficient!
  • PRICE - On the expensive side
  • ROOM - Average
  • GROUNDS - The hotel grounds is expansive.  Garden is well manicured, picture perfect and overlooks Taal Volcano.
  • AMENITIES - There is an outdoor pool, gym, kids' play room and activity/game room, however, these were all located on the old wing (it was quite a walk from where we were staying - it was really far!) of the hotel.  Never got to try any of them.
  • FOOD - Just good.  I was expecting better :P


The location makes up for the little peeves. I don't mind staying again and paying a little extra just for the view, which was really breathtaking especially on a clear sunny morning.
