Makiling Onsen Hotel

This place is perfect for people who love nature and believe that nature can be healing. Japanese Onsen is very calming and relaxing. Good for body detox coz you will sweat a lot! You should be NAKED. 🙃🙂 Cons. If you are temperature sensitive, onsen can be too hot for you. It can dry your hair, tie it up.

We arrived late, around 8 pm, to check in. Our room included dinner, breakfast, and our private onsen. The dinner is limited to their rice meals. I ordered orange chicken, which unfortunately had no hint of orange but is grilled well. Our meal arrived within 20 minutes of ordering. Service is quite efficient. They opened our onsen for us so we can use it after our dinner. I have been communicating with them on my ti…

Place 5/5 clean, quiet Food 5/5 even though we arrived late, the chef still delivered quality good Staff 5/5 courteous and always present to assist Rooms 5/5 spacious, clean linens, Onsen 4/5 could be hotter but it is fine

Went here for an overnight staycation with my family. The facilities looked dated but clean and well maintained, which I liked a lot. Loved the covered parking, which is a godsend in this climate. The staff were easy to talk to and were so accommodating. The outdoor pool area receives quite the afternoon glare, but there's not much else that can be done short of covering it all up entirely, and there are spots in th…

I was able to reserve a room through their facebook page a day before which is great since I didn’t need to call them to make a reservation. They are active online! The staff were all very accommodating when we arrived there and politely assisted us. The Superior Room was very spacious and has it’s own onsen inside where we enjoyed some private time soaking in all the hot water and minerals. You don’t really need to…

Parking is okay. (See pics) Staff are friendly. I booked by phone for a 2 hour private Onsen but got updated to a Superior Room because of renovations. The water is warm, around 40 C. Part of me was expecting hotter water temperature. I ordered food via room service. It was warm not hot and arrived around 15 minutes later. I'd say I felt relaxed by the experience and will be back. Total spend: 599 solo.

Their onsen is not hot. It is not even warm. It’s only lukewarm. So I think if you are looking for an onsen, you are wasting your money here. The food is also not good. Despite this, the interior of their place is well designed and the atmosphere when you walk around their premises is really nice. Onsen: 2/5 - The esthetic design of the onsen (we used a private room with its own onsen) is good but the water is barel…
