MOMSPIRATION AT DISCOVERY COUNTRY SUITES
Everything is nice and its very picturesque here in Tagaytay City, we go here just to relax and also treat ourselves with some good food in a place with cold weather. Lots of restaurants and hotels are already been booked during the weekends and also every special days, If you are looking for something new and worth for the experience, then check out my post here about my visit in Discovery Country Suites in Tagaytay City and their restaurant – Restaurant Verbena.
If you are looking for nice weekend getaway and treat with your mom this coming Mother’s Day (May 10), here’s a sneak peak of Discovery Country Suites in Tagaytay City and Restaurant Verbena’s offerings this Mother’s Day.
Here’s a teaser - they offer a special promo rate for overnights with breakfast and sundown cocktails, outdoor movies, free head massages for moms, dessert buffet or afternoon high tea, and special menu for Mother’s Day at Restaurant Verbena this Mother’s Day.

Discovery Country Suites is a bed and breakfast lodging establishment with a 5-star quality facilities, bed, rooms and also a dining resto. I thought that I have seen the best of hotels and bed and breakfast in Tagaytay City, and when I went here, I thought that I was in a big hotel but located in the southern province of our country. Take note that Discovery Country Suites have 3 Deluxe Suites, 2 Premiere Suites and 1 Master Suites.

Entrance
I’ve learned that this was a former guest house and then it was converted by the owners into a high grade bed and breakfast establishment

Staffs and guards are in costume to match the theme of being in a country side.

Restaurant Verbena is a stand alone brand that resides inside Discovery Country Suites, it’s open everyday and they welcome walk in diners.
I’m very surprised that this resto attracts lots of staycationers and Manileno’s whenever they visit Tagaytay. Since last year, I always see this resto whenever we pass by going to Picnic Grove, and I’m always curious and want to drop by for coffee. Well, finally I’m here na!
