Surrounded by lush greeneries with tall tree canopies and strategically located on the quiet side of Tarlac City, Microtel by Wyndham Luisita is your best choice of business hotel and quality staycation destination in the province of Tarlac. Comfort and convenience plus a welcoming atmosphere truly provide each and every guest that homey feeling that truly transcends to the staycation ensemble.
Being the first Microtel by Wyndham property in the Philippines, the Luisita Tarlac branch boasts one of its unprecedented customer service and attention to detail coupled with warm hospitality once you stepped into their zone. Particularly, I was amazed at how they created that bespoke staycation experience I had during my stay there from ingress to check-out, it left a considerable dent in my memory.
THE CHECK-IN PROCESS
Arriving in the midst of the afternoon, the security staff at the door welcomed us soon as I stepped out of the vehicle – with the FBSE insignia notable. He readily took my heavy baggage and ushered our way to the posh reception area. The mid-afternoon humidity and heat almost consumed my energy, yet, as I stepped in and went through their lobby, the identifiable relaxing aroma filled my nostrils and the ambient climate swept my stress away. It was as if I was cloaked with an invisible anti-stress blanket. I was welcomed with a warm smile behind the mask by the reception staff who gave me the key card and further check-in instructions to fully enjoy my staycation at Microtel by Wyndham Tarlac. I was indeed excited being back here and now to experience its upper floor room. The security staff ushered me again to the room with my heavy baggage until I finally got inside.
THE QUEEN BED SUITE ROOM
After swiping the contactless keycard, I was welcomed with a dimly lit suite room with the curtains open slightly to allow ambient light that illuminates the room. The table lamps and other lighting fixtures added to the magical warm glow, ultimately, sending a relaxing ambiance. Albeit at its full strength, the air conditioning needs a bit of catching up against the afternoon warmth.
Saw again their iconic daybed, where I truly loved to lounge while reading a book or drafting an article. This is my favourite amenity of Microtel by Wyndham. Who wouldn’t love a leatherette feel against the window and enjoying the appropriate lighting while enjoying my books. At night, there are dedicated lamps if you wish to continue your reading on the daybed.
At the floating desk, I am welcomed by local delicacies for me to try. I was particular with the spicy and sour butcheron, which I was quite craving for a considerable amount of time. Available also are two canned pineapple juice and a large Banana strips that I consumed while watching movies.
There is a huge flat TV equipped with cable channels to keep me entertained and actually enjoyed Harry Potter movies that brought back a bit of my high school year memories.
Another feature of the Queen Bed Suite Room is the Sofa Bed, located in the Living Area. The support and the fabric texture are the features that I loved about this sofa bed. Apart from that, this could be an extension bed if you have another guest. I wish I had the opportunity to try and snooze here.
The Tea and Coffee Facility is placed strategically at the sink dividing the bed area and the living area. They have a separate pitcher, glass and ice bucket for your beverage needs. On top of the sink, they have a medium-sized microwave oven. There are cabinet spaces as well where you can organize some of your belongings.
The Private Toilet and Bath Room features a moderate-sized installed bathtub with multi-head hot and cold shower, clean toilet seats with bidet (which we all love, wink wink), and a separate clean lavatory. The mirror is huge enough for your self-care needs. Bath and Face towels are placed individually on their assigned racks and the toiletries provided are organized as well. The hot shower works, so be careful in turning full the shower knob to avoid scalding. Test the water temperature until you reach the desired temperature and maintain it there. Since you can shower in the bathtub, you might as well try to fill in for a relaxing bath.
Since I need a bit of productivity minutes, the wifi connection transcends until the very bed I was, so I was able to check and correspond to important communications. Thankful enough that I do not need to leave my room to connect to the internet, and I find this truly convenient.
HOTEL AMENITIES
Please note that Microtel by Wyndham Luisita is a 100% Smoke-Free Hotel. They have a dedicated spot outside if you wish to smoke or vape. They have Free Parking right in front of the Hotel Facade.
The Acacia Park – I am so excited that they developed the front lawn into an accessible park that guests can lounge on and enjoy while their stay at Microtel By Wyndham Luisita. The Acacia Park features wooden benches, a playground set with swings and slides. At night, the innumerable bulbs create an enchanting glow casting a romantic and relaxing brilliance. I find this type of scenario one of the creative triggers, I can imagine myself seating on their benches under those romantic lights with my fingers busy on the keyboard. It was truly magical that night. Thanks to Ms. Nicole for letting me experience such.
The Game Nook offers games and activities for all ages. They have the traditional sungka board which I truly love to play at. It is a life-sized made from a large tree trunk with hollowed-out holes for the game set. There are board games and other sets like chess and Scrabble that would truly occupy your energy.
The Reception and Lobby features a multi seating area and a spacious hall. As a business guest, you can receive or host your valuable guests while enjoying the cosy ambiance. The Lobby is also filled with a pleasant scent that adds to its relaxing vibe. The ambient temperature as well keeps the staff, you and your guests comfortable even during the brunt of the summer afternoon heat.
IZAKAYA COWAN GRILL JAPANESE RESTAURANT
Having a Japanese restaurant just ride beside where I stay is truly comforting, as I love Japanese Cuisine. The Restaurant also functions as the location where they serve your plated breakfast. The Dining Hall features an expansive seating area, with picture interests like the cherry blossom trees set up. Before check out, where I spent quality lunch time with Sir Rob and Ms. Nicole. We left the restaurant with full and heavy tummies after enjoying sumptuous lunch. If you wish to hold intimate events, you can coordinate with the Microtel by Wyndham Luisita team for your convenience. They would be happy to be in your assistance.
CHECKING-OUT
