VIEW PARK HOTEL TAGAYTAY REVIEW : OUR SWEET ESCAPE

Remember I told you I’ll be writing a separate review on our View Park Hotel experience?

Well tadaaa! Here it is.  I actually made a brief feedback via travel advisor which will be found here.

I went hotel scouting weeks before our trip. (Yes! like 2 weeks before? I was really excited that time!)

View Park hotel ranked number 2 among all the hotels in Tagaytay, and rave reviews were pouring!

I also fell in love with the landscape and pool! We totally forgot that our budget for hotel is supposed to be around 2000 php only, but screw limits! its our anniversary so we should not mind the one time expense!

Good thing Boyf lives in Bacoor, so he went there to personally book. We got ourselves the deluxe room. Cost is Php 3,500.

He told me that the staff were very friendly and the lobby was cozy and beautiful. That really made me want to jump out of my bed and go straight to Tagaytay!

Fast forward, chaaaaaraaaaaan!

After our scrumptious lunch, we went to check in and didn’t notice that we were an hour earlier. We were immediately informed that they are still preparing our room, and since check in is at 1:00, we opted to past time at the picnic grove where I got my first evaaah fish spa!

Back to the hotel, they are so warm that they even gave us complimentary  four seasons juice while waiting in the lobby – and mind you, its not the usual powdered four seasons in the market. Absolutely refreshing!

and there came the surprise! now that’s why they got a bit late as they were preparing MY FLOWERS and MY ROSE PETALS!  yes,they’re  all mine! *evil laugh*

Well of course I cried, I cried because I’m one hell of a lucky girl!

A happy me w/ the flowers and all! and the sheet smells good too!

Going back to the review, (haha)

We were also welcomed by complimentary coffees, a basket full of treats and a mini ref full of beverages! I particularly enjoyed the ref, because it was really useful during our stay, we were able to store our left overs and eat ‘em the next day! (ka ching! ka ching!) not to mention that its really clean and cute too! :)

T’was Saturday evening, and they were so nice inviting us to join their acoustic night at red lemon grill, just beside view park. Sadly, we are set to go to Skyranch so we missed the first part of the gig. When we got back, the band is in their last set already – and as much as we wanted to watch, our take out dinner might get cold, so we just let it passed. The music is heard across the room anyway, which some found annoying – but we did enjoy the serenading band as we lie on our comfy beds though.. :)
I originally wanted to dip in the pool before going to bed, but maaan! it was unbelievably cold! so yeah, poor me. (Sings let it go, let it gooooo!)

And there comes the morning. Room reservation comes with complimentary breakfast buffet for two. As we go down, cheerful “good morning” greetings from the staff was heard. They never failed to greet us everytime we pass by the lobby! *Gives the staff a two thumbs up* Some of them were really kind to guide the way, and offers umbrella too, as it was drizzling that morning.

We arrived at their breakfast hall, and as expected, courteous staff were there and made us feel at home. From bread, pancakes to rice, and unlimited coffee, its impossible that your will leave with unsatisfied stomach. I’ll rate the food taste 8/10, and service a 10 out of 10! They also gave us complimentary fruit platter as anniversary gift! Everyone was so kind that (sorry I forgot the name) even ordered to have my coffee replaced as it was already cold, (but it was entirely my fault, they serve their coffee pretty hot!) They even took a snapshot of us and told that its for our souvenir.

Free fruit platter! yay! :) So much thanks to View Park for making our anniversary happier :)

And before I end this post, sure its a hotel – it is expected that they sell service. But it was different in View Park Hotel, it really felt like a genuine care and you can tell that it was everyone’s passion. What’s more impressing is they tend to their customers very well! Imagine I demanded hot water, ice bucket, additional glasses and utensils, reheat our pizza the next day, and they even helped us with our spilled drinks at the lobby (haha clumsy us! sorry) but all were properly taken care of! So, kudos to all the hard working and passionate people in this hotel! :)

We got a photo magnet (the picture that was taken during breakfast) and a cute bag tag at check out! Thank you View Park! We will definitely come back… :)

xo,
