Paradores Del Castillo

I like the place since it's near the Church and walking distance to other heritage houses/ museum. The staffs are very courteous and attentive to our needs. The house/ hotel is beautiful, well-maintained and the food is delicious. Highly recommended and will definitely be back!

Our room is near the pool side and restaurant and the noise can be heard inside the room since the walls/ windows are glass.

Clean and friendly staff

非常漂亮古色古香的房子跟房間，人員服務也是無懈可擊，不論是櫃檯人員、門口警衛跟餐廳員工很棒。

房間洗手台的水龍頭有點妙，打開水柱會直接噴到地面而非洗手台裡，除此之外都很棒，如果有提供行李架就更完美了

The vibe, accommodating staff, food is great (love the fried tawilis), my kid loved the pool, instagrammable views

Water pressure seems weak in the room where we stayed but timba and tabo were helpful. Pool maintenance is also an area for improvement.

Great location with very accommodating staff.the hotel was clean . Breakfast was good also.

We were placed in room 2&3 at second floor. The room was good but the aircon cannot adequately cool the room. I wasn't able to sleep also because I can hear the outside street and the room was very bright during the day that I cannot really rest during the day. It would also be nice if there was additional bathroom in the family room as 1 bath inside another room (2) makes it hard to go to the bathroom when you stay in room 3. but the rooms in the ground floor where my father stayed was very nice with good sound proofing and good airconditioning.

The pool and the grounds were quite beautiful. The house was a beautiful historic house. We rented the family suite and a separate room with a queen size bed. The suite was really neat with two rooms off a formal sala. The pool was very refreshing. The restaurant was amazing and food so delicious! The free breakfast was a real value but we also had dinner which was delicious.

We stated during summer so it was very hot and the ac in the individual rooms were great but the sala was too hot to spend time in. Also there is only one bathroom in the suite so you had to go through the bedroom of the second bedroom to use it.

Centrally located peaceful oasis

Rooms a bit dark, aircon a bit difficult to orient

Great location, beautiful setting and property, excellent staff at both hotel and restaurant

All foods were delicious. The kapeng barako was really great! The staff were courteous to us.

Nice place

Nice place, good location

The location and the architectural details of the building. The feelings that you travel in time.

The vintage look made us feel how life would have been in the olden times. I praise owners for keeping things as close to ambiance of that era as practical as possible.

There were no lifts for higher floors but no big deal as iit would have ruined the vintage atmosphere. It should be stated in the advert though for the benefit of seniors with mobility issues.

The bed is sagging needs to have a firm bed.

old house vibes

no security guard was on duty

House was large.

The house we stayed at was separate from the hotel, which was only communicated to us after the booking. We tried to chnage but wanting to charge as much as what we had already paid. The house only had aircon in the bedrooms, in which one was not working well. No aircon in lounge room. Surrounding area was boring and not much to do.

Delicious bfast, location is far from our place of origin but worth the trip.

No chicken in the breakfast menu

The furniture pieces/decor felt like a journey back in time, adding to the hotel's unique ambiance.

Great location, surrounded by restaurants. Beside the metro station. I found the bed to be quite hard.

Quaint! Great location! Amazing staff!

Arrived after hours at 2000h-2100h, even before getting off the car we were greeted by the staff. He helped us with our luggage, provided assistance, and gave recommendations. He remained polite despite issues with the booking.

Souvenir goods weren't fully stocked.

Authentic antique house

Too many stairs, Difficult for seniors Floors can be slippery, too shiny

I’m completely in love with this hotel & I would definitely come back here if ever I visit Taal again. It was worth every penny - from the room, to the common spaces, to breakfast. It is walking distance to all the important places to visit. Two thumbs up!

it was truly a heritage house experience with all the cozy comforts of the present day.

we couldn't open the windows to see outside

The atmosphere provided by a converted historic Filipino house and attentive customer service combine to provide a unique experience. It was a great pleasure to stay at the Paradores del Castillo

The location was perfect to easily walk and reach the limited numbers of touristic hot spots in Taal. It is worth to visit the wet market since there you can find a huge amount of fresh food etc. on display. The pool of the hotel was perfectly sized and the view from its location to the West Philippine Sea (WPS) over the city was beautiful. The restaurant had unfortunately only a limited amount of a locally(!) produced beer on stock. While the quality of the "local" food was good and plenty of option.

N.A.

Staffs are very kind and helpful. Always available when needed. The swimming pool was great and it was nice to have food choices for breakfast.

Isolation of the room, noise was very loud during the night/morning. It would be great if the lighting in the room were brighter. It could also be nice to have curtains that actually darkens the room for a better sleeping rest as the sun is up from 5-6 am. Lastly, it was too bad the bar closes early.

We recently stayed (7/21-7/22/24) at Paradores del Castillo Hotel in preparation for our prenup photoshoot, and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly accommodating and friendly, especially the Kuyas at the entrance. Their warm welcome set the tone for our stay. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained. The linens were clean and smelled wonderful, and the bathrooms were spotless. The ambiance was very homey and welcoming, making us feel as though we had traveled back in time. The community atmosphere truly added to the charm of our stay. The food at Cucina de Jardin was fantastic and worth every penny. Additionally, we highly recommend Casa Recuerdos for photoshoots. The costumes were laundered and clean, and the staff were very accommodating, assisting us up to the last minute. Overall, our stay at Paradores del Castillo was delightful, and we would highly recommend it to friends and family.

Water supply in the shower can improve

The place is so beautiful and clean.. and the staff are very accommodating lastly the foods is also delicious

The room is not cold enough but its very understandable because the weather is very hot the time when we checked in but in afternoon until the day we checked out the air conditioning is good.

When we first arrived i was concerned about the hotel, but after goinsude and seeing the heritage i was sold. The room is good, the bed comfortable. Swimming pool is great. The food delicious and the staff delightful A little overpriced but given the staff and the food it is well worth staying there!

Great historic building in a very historic neighborhood. The hotel has a beautiful pool

Better soundproofing in the room would be good, though I understand it’s difficult to do in a historic building

Friendly staff. Close to everything. Clean

Floor of shower is slipper. Hazard to elderly

Great value for money, spacious, clean and comfortable room. The staff were friendly and very accomodating. We'd happily stay here again.

We stayed at Casa de Herencia which was just behind the church. It was decent. Lots of bugs though on the ground floor but the sheets and beds were clean. You can't expect too much from an old house but they did their best to maintain it. The staff overall were very helpful and accommodating though the front desk girl was a bit annoying. The manager also did not want to honor Senior Citizen's Discount for an extra bed we requested, which was a bit off-putting. The breakfast at the restaurant was pretty good. Overall its above average for a provincial stay in the Philippines but definitely not at par with international standards. It is still nice to experience something different in the countryside.

I love the ambiance and the design of the hotel. Location is super convenient also as all are walking distance and near the national highway. Staffs are hospitable also.

The leather bed. This is personal; should not impact the hotel’s credibility and service.

It has an ambience of nostalgia. But still cozy. Had good night sleep every night. Less crowded. Lots of chairs and tables outside the room for us to spend day or night just lounging. The internet signal very strong anywhere within the property. The food was great. The staff very accommodating. Location is great as it’s about walking distance to the main town center. But if one wants to go to malls which are just a few kilometers away, there’s a public transportation (motorized tricycles) available outside.

Nothing really significant. Although there’s a window in the room but I’m wishing there’s a glass/screen on the window for sunlight to get in the room and to appreciate the view outside without letting in flying insects.

Great place.

Heritage house, friendly staff, nice rooms, clean, nice breakfast.

Not really didn't like, but you just need to know that since Taal is an old town, streets are narrow. The restaurant closes early, and you need to be patient with your order.

Location and old world feel

Nothing

Really nice people and the deck was a great place to drink an evening beer and watch the evening thunderstorms roll in.

Liked the very old house and cleanliness. Nice bed

It was like travelling back in time! The whole house was a showcase of the grand old days! The creativity and artistry of the Filipinos could be seen in even the smallest details of the house. A walk through time and history, for sure! And the staff! They were the ultimate in making our stay comfortable. The warmth and friendliness of everyone felt like we were coming home to family and not just visiting. A big thank you to Leonard, Roselyn, Marian, Bisoy and everyone else I did not manage to get the name of! You all deserve 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Nothing

The staff were friendly and accommodating. The place and experience were perfect.

Staff are very accomodating, super friendly and polite, warm hospitality, food is delicious, place is clean and cozy... It's like staying in a museum. Swimming pool and facilities are clean. We enjoyed our stay.

The annex family villa where we stayed is quite far from main... We don't have a car, but they provided shuttle service to transport us to and fro the main hotel where the swimming pool and breakfast are located... There's no private pool in the annex family villa even though the posting shows it.

Paradores is a jewel of a hotel in Taal. Its an aura of magical vintage ness that exudes the opulent Filipino spirit. Every guest will be billeted to experiences of walking back in time, Philippine scene, by this hotel.

The mattress used in one of the beds has seen the best of times, so to speak. May the management find it soon and replace promptly

good food, efficient and courteous staff

squeaky bed

the location

The breakfast was wonderful and I love the historic ambience and the neighborhood.

The view was non-existant. It was a little buggy in the garden.

The bathroom shower curtain too short, water going out on the floor.

Nice pool and dining area

The facilities is opt for accidents or fall. Ground floors have a lot of uneven payment that will cause accident. I don't know if they ever had any claim from their guests? Likewise, they are the only hotel we encounter limiting bottle of water to 2 bottles for the duration of your stay. The rest you have to pay Php42.00 each. However, their bfast is super great!

love the old world charm, outdoor restaurant served a great buffet breakfast at the weekend. nice terrace to sit on and watch the sunset

It was our second time in this establishment. There was no swimming pool yet in the past and the restaurant has gone bigger and better. The location is expectedly excellent because it is right at the center where interesting spots can be reached through walking. Very nice view at the deck. The room is very clean and the food (buffet breakfast) was excellent. Very warm and helpful staff.

There was a little problem with the A/C initially but it was quickly resolved. Shower water pressure can be improved.

Beautiful peaceful sanctuary

Great view and walkable area.

The staff is excellent but the bathroom is too small. The lavatory faucet needs to adjust the water flow. The water flow spills over the lavatory.

It was nice

Highly recommeded! Customer service was superb.Rooms were clean. Pool was not that big but very clean,sanitized regularly. All of the staff were very attentive of our needs,they're all accomodating. Kudos to the whole team. I can't thank them enough. I'm so happy that I made the right booking.

Overall amenities is great. Staff are helpful and courteous. Nice display of historical items, veranda, gardens and infinity pool.

Extremely pleasant and friendly in a nice building on nice grounds

The place was great, they have the modern luxury such as hot and cold shower, AC and wide screen tv with cable yet the ambiance and the hotel itself was kept as authentic to our olden days as possible.

Very nice stay :) I super love the reception, food, ambiance, and cleanliness of the room ❤️ Our stay was super worth it 👍 congrats to Paradores Team 🎉 The parking slot was superb! We were assisted properly and the room was very clean and sanitized :)
