Paradores Del Castillo

The place is pleasant, quaint and has lovely well preserved heritage structures. Staff was accomodating and well mannered. Food in their restaurants are at par with Manila standards. Although our friends ,who stayed in the annex bldg, did not get to sleep because of noise from basketball court which had very late till early morning games.

Large family meal ( 12). Good welcome and efficient friendly service. Food came quickly and was hot! Yes I know I am in Philippines and other dishes ordered were all local but I went for a thin pizza and it was excellent- exceeded my expectations. The Filipino food all disappeared so we can take that as a very good sign. All in all very good food and nice setting too. Would return .

Painstaking attention to detail is put into Paradores del Castillo to help transport guests to a time when the Ilustrados’ thoughts turned to something far more important than themselves. Its terrific pasta & halo-halo are timeless though. Don Juan Boodle House is a can’t-miss foodie destination in a surprising locale. Get ready to fight for delicious sinaing na tulingan, adobong dilaw & crispy tawilis. And in a nod to Spain, the paella, chipirones & gambas at Cuchara y Tenedor were superb. To complete the trip, one should drop in at Taal Tees Souvenir Shop. All these are a convenient walk from Paradores. Like its accommodation costs, food & item prices at said places were reasonable. The owner’s passion to keep alive the family heritage & promote Taal’s rich history & culture makes the whole experience possible. Impressive also are the staff who take pride in what they do. Special mention to Manager Suzette & Tour Host Jersa whom my kids loved.

My friends and I decided to book a hotel in Batangas as a last minute getaway and Paradores del Castillo is one of the few affordable choices left. We honestly didn’t expect it to be a remarkable hotel but it proved us wrong. It has exceeded our expectations! Affordable stay and yet, we experienced a top notch service. From the very accommodating and welcoming staff, good food, beautiful view of the pool and garden, and peaceful area. Everything that you need if you wish to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. The place was truly like little Vigan, vintage beauty with a touch of modern which is the pool area. They also have their own restaurant (Cucina De Jardin) that offers quality food and amazing service. Very recommendable! It was a memorable stay so we’re definitely going back! 🥰

The Best hotel to stay here in Taal, I’m from Canada but I was born in the Philippines and taal is my hometown and I always see this hotel and wondered what it would feel like to stay in that hotel. The staff are best in doing their work, rooms have a historic feeling but still feels modern, the restaurant has such great foods, the pool with a beautiful view of the garden. That’s all i wanted to say it’s a great hotel
