The oldest hotel in Laguna (opened in 1888) has manicured gardens, beach views, and an ideal location downtown adjacent to Main Beach. Accommodations take second stage to the outdoor ambience, so expect rooms to be small, short on amenities, and somewhat tired in terms of decor. Among the perks is access to the hotel's private beach, where guests are provided with lounges, umbrellas, and towels and can order lunch or cocktails from the Beach Club menu. Pros: fantastic location; lovely views from restaurant; clean rooms. Cons: in need of an upgrade; street noise.
