Aroma Tagaytay Hotel

When we were planning for our trip to Tagaytay, we looked at several sites, reviews and blogs to choose the best deal that will be comfortable for us as well as with our pockets.

After a few discussions, we both agreed that we will go with Aroma Tagaytay Hotel.

It was just along the highway, you can never miss it [admittedly,  we did :(].

If you will be coming from Sta Rosa you will see Tagaytay Econo Inn, then you need to turn right, then on your left just watch out for Starbucks Coffee, then you will see Iglesia ni Cristo.  Just wait a few seconds and you will see (in the left side) Aroma Tagaytay Hotel.

 

We were welcomed by their very accommodating staff and even guided us to our room.  We chose one of the rooms at the 3rd level, which are the VIP Rooms.  The very instance I step foot in that place, I felt like it was an old house (ancestral house), simply because it was not your typical hotel rooms, floorings, corridors and stairs, it felt like home. 

 

Then when we had a quick chat with the Officer in Charge (Ate Mina), she mentioned that this hotel was indeed an old house turned into a hotel.  This is a Filipino owned business, no wonder that the staff are very accommodating and hospitable.

 

Now on to our room:

 

It was a very spacious room, with a queen sized bed with antique side tables with flowers, Cable TV, Fridge, Closets and a nice comfort room with hot and cold shower.

 

In the morning (say around 5-6 am) you can open the windows to let the sunlight in and feel the cool breeze coming from the lake. 

We have our own terrace and it's over looking Taal Volcano.

You will notice some contruction going on because they are always up for continuous improvement -- which is a plus of course!

 

 

Just outside our room, we can share a common dining table and sala set.. It was really homey with a fireplace (it's just a design though).

 

This was the sala set overlooking the Taal Volcano.

 

Then here are the terrace, dining table, china wares, antique chairs and tables and fireplace.

 

 

 

 

 

They have a pool. You can have a dip anytime you want but of course not during when it's being cleaned up.  They have a huge area by the pool and sometimes it's used for birthday celebrations and wedding receptions.

 

They have free Wi-fi but it's just at the reception area.

Well, if you are in a vacation, you don't need to have a Wi-Fi in your room because it loses the essence of "Me Time" or "Us Time".  It loses the intent for connection and bonding.. I saw this one post before that says "Be with the friends / family that you are right now" and not focus on Social Media -- which for me is absolutely right!

They have free breakfast - simple Si-Log dishes but it will surely kick start your day.

 

 

They also have quick menus for lunch and dinner if you do not wish to dine out.

I will surely come back to this place when we need to stay overnight at Tagaytay.  The lovely weather, accommodating and hospitable staff and the homey environment are just the perfect combination for an ultimate vacation.

If you are used to hotel settings with white beddings and towel and a corridor like walkway and elevators, then this place is not for you.  However, if you want to feel like home while in Tagaytay, then this is the place to be!

If you wish to stay here, you can inquire by texting or calling their Office in Charge - Ate Mina at 0949 784 2462.  You will definitely have a fast transaction.
