  Taal Vista Hotel was recently rated a first-class hotel by the Department of Tourism (DoT). Through the years, the
  70-year-old tourism institution in Tagaytay has proven to be the most majestic and grandest landmark of the garden
  city 2,700 feet above sea level.

  Indeed, who will not be caught by Taal Vista Hotel’s charm and glamour?

  Taal Vista Hotel has already accommodated thousands of guests who find comfort and serenity in it. The hotel has
  hosted the grandest occasions and continues to welcome more guests into a delightful experience. Today, more than
  ever, Taal Vista Hotel once again opens a wider door for the same great view... a totally new experience.

  In 1937, with the help and management of Manila Hotel, a vacation lodge was built by leaders of the Commonwealth
  government as an alternative retreat to Baguio. It was designed to accommodate important guests, such as heads of
  state, government officials, famous shows and business personalities.

  The hotel changed hands through the years. Resort Hotels Corporation owned and managed the hotel until it was
  turned over in 1984 to Hotel Development Corporation, a subsidiary of Development Bank of the Philippines. In
  1988, SM Investments Corporation bought the property which renovated 40 rooms for exclusive use of PAGCOR
  guests. For a time, concessionaires like children’s game room and a Jollibee store kept guests coming, next to
  enjoying the great view of Taal Volcano and Taal Lake from the deck of the hotel. .
