Makiling Onsen: A Japanese-Style Vacation at Laguna

If you have ever thought of relaxing somewhere not so far from the Metro, then Makiling Onsen Hotel is the right one for you. Makiling Onsen Hotel is a Japanese inspired hotel  located at Los Baños, Laguna that offers its guests a traditional Japanese atmosphere.

Onsen is the term used for hot springs baths in Japan. These hot baths are known to be therapeutic on some common ailments like muscle pains, rheumatism and other ailments.

As my friends and I visited this hotel, we checked in a room with a hot bath inside. It was really a very relaxing experience.

The room where we stayed have tatami floor and low table. Yukata was also provided to complete our Japanese-style vacation.

There is also a restaurant inside the hotel. And of course, this restaurant serves Japanese food. If you don't feel like dining inside the restaurant, you can call their staff and have your meal served directly to your room, or even at the pool side.

And just like any other hotels in Laguna, of course they have swimming pools. They have a kiddie and adult pools that a family or group of friends can enjoy. You can click here to see more pictures of their pools and other amenities.

Overall, I can say that our stay here in Makiling Onsen Hotel has been great. The place is relaxing and I am very comfortable here. We've been here twice already, and I do not have a doubt that we will visit this place again some time soon.
