[@gabrielebeinartaite2767]

You should do 3 nights in one hotel staying in three different rooms they offer from the cheapest, middle and the most expensive to see the differences

[@Grackle]

WHAT A GREAT IDEA !!!

[@prisarlogonzales8317]

@@Grackle I can just hear you say WHAT A GREAT IDEA! HAHA😆

Also you could try ''What £150 hotel room in London vs Paris (or Barcelona for example) gets you''

[@HerbieRey]

I've stayed at that same Easyhotel back in 2017 and it felt so safe and secure in a little bubble room. The lack of luxuries means there's no reason to stay in the room. It made me get up and go explore London whereas when I stay in nicer places I want to stay in and enjoy the room so there's no point being in London!

[@GabijaS18]

That’s exactly what I was thinking!!!

[@sue15cat]

That's a really good point. 😀

[@morningstar8187]

I actually love this style of super cheap hotel. When I’m travelling, a hotel room is just a place to sleep. I don’t care for about the room as long a sits clean, the food, or any other stuff. A bed, a toilet, and a shower is all I need.

[@GabijaS18]

Same here. Of course, if I had the money to book more expensive hotels I would, but as someone with barely enough to even go away for a few days, cheap hotels are perfectly fine!

[@stefancoban59]

A good hotel, while on a skiing trip makes a huge difference. I couldn't even imagine how much it improves the whole experience until I tried a fancy hotel. And all inclusive resorts, for holidays with the little ones, should be 4 or 5 stars resorts. Otherwise what's even the point for going?

[@morningstar8187]

@@stefancoban59 I don’t do resorts, so that’s not really an issue for me. When I travel, I like to blend in with the locals.

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

sadly most cheap places are filthy

[@breakfastattiffanys741]

Clean bedding, noise proof (as cities always have construction going on) and hot water is all one needs for a quick overnight or fast paced visit. Obviously if it was a beach/island resort type I would pay more for the whole comfortable experience (SPA) 💗😁

[@emilyh9159]

i love that you do solo dates, a lot of adulthood gets busy and it’s easy to fall into the trap of doing nothing bc of no one to go with! You’ve helped me understand and normalise that doing things alone is just as normal and just as enjoyable x

[@breakfastattiffanys741]

Yep I'm approaching 30 and all friends and family around my age spend their night's with Netflix and we're all getting fatter and less articulate 😅😅 really have to do something!!!

[@harmonyhope1709]

The Easy hotel reminds me of capsule hotel that Taz stayed in that time on "Click for Taz" I think I would definitely need a room with a window! I'd feel too claustrophobic otherwise!! Can't believe how much you have grown in confidence. Doing this video alone. Years ago you couldn't spend one night away from home without Chloe or going to stay with a friend. Or if you did go alone your anxiety was so bad that you couldn't sleep. So proud of you for challenging your fears x How Boujee is the 2nd hotel? The swimming pool and spa area. WOW!!! Good breakfast buffet too. Plus you got the all important robe and slippers!!!!😅😊❤️

[@juliawilliams4162]

Maybe do a cheapest vs most expensive _dinner_ buffet? I think there might be a larger difference in quality compared to a breakfast one, and overall would be interesting to see what London has to offer!

[@EmmaLouiseVlogs]

That cheapest hotel felt more like a claustrophobic cruise ship cabin than a hotel room!😂

[@lalrempuiifanai8952]

Just what I thought 😂

[@gracebevill]

The first room reminded me of a ferry cabin : functional, a little bit creepy, and a lot better with a window!

[@passiveaggressive6175]

I’ve been a ferry cabin and waay much more room😂😂😭

[@monica7790]

This is actually such a good series to plan future London trips! 😍 You should do like a budget day vs luxury day in London. Maybe try hostels. Review cheap activities vs expensive activities in London. Its nice to get a refreshing review from a genuine person (like not sponsored).

[@laulau194]

The mystery of the tv is that you have to pay extra to get a remote! Stayed in an easyhotel in Glasgow for several days once and no complaints...sure, I could touch three walls at once when lying in bed (and I am not tall), but it was clean, safe, and affordable. I did have a window though!

[@milliesabine2107]

Aw grace, speaking about how late 8:30 is to be waking up 😭 I wish

[@jamie-irenemcgovern7253]

I feel like the Easy hotel would be perfect if you were catching a flight/train and literally only need a place to crash. The pool on the second hotel looks gorge!

[@chloevanderlinde7468]

They are very similar to Ibis Budget hotels too. Perfect for when you have an early morning flight and just need to crash somewhere close to the airport!

[@karmalitaaaaa]

Or as an alternative to a hostel. When I'm backpacking I usually stay there when I can't find a camping area to pitch my tent

[@ChloeHancockcookie]

That's what me and my partner are using it for this month when we get our train to Amsterdam!

[@Elwene2fr]

The bathroom from the first room is exactly the same type I had for 5 years when I was in uni. It's kind of tricky but it's SO easy to clean (everything is plastic so you just have to use a sponge and rince everything with the shower head)

[@Saltalotl]

I would imagine it's grand for the cleaners who can just come in with a hose!

[@mjust8857]

I know the Mandarin Oriental was the most expensive at one point with their suite costing £40k per night, but this was a couple of years ago. You should definitely see if you can get a behind the scene tour of a 5* London hotel; some have onsite florists (which is so cool to just see a room full of beautiful flowers) others have fleets of amazing cars for their guests to rent out etc. An interview with a concierge at a 5* hotel would also be so exciting - they make whatever the guest wants (and can pay for) possible and have really interesting jobs.

[@bertiebug1596]

I needed this today, it was a very monsayish Monday

[@MelissaThompson432]

The mondayest. 🤗

[@bertiebug1596]

@A.E.R. Hughes-Evans thanks so much 🙏 you too 🤗 ❤️

[@13LavenderRose]

I'm tempted to do this one day with my husband- just randomly take a weekend to go to a new city and try a cheap hotel and an expensive hotel (do the cheap one on the first day so we'll be more inclined to explore the city and then on our last night, have the expensive one so we can enjoy our time together). Thanks Grack!

[@louisacoote2337]

The first one is so claustrophobic! I would need a window. Oh, and a bigger, enclosed shower too, as otherwise the whole bathroom gets soaked!

[@catherineturner2839]

Now the weather is getting better, do the cheapest v most expensive campsite. Maybe do it with Taz. You could then do the same in France and compare

[@kates7277]

Where IS Taz?

[@aylin9521]

Bestie just wanted to say I was tearing up watching this vid because you are the most lovely, genuine and warming person on KZbin! You deserve the best and more! Thank you for always being here me for me to watch because you make me feel happy!!

[@patrickhardison9669]

I've got to admit that I never much cared for room service, never thought it was worth the expense, especially if you were in a good-sized city with other choices nearby.

[@hayleyvic1830]

I know what you mean but sometimes it feels like a lovely little luxury, not having to go anywhere/get dressed up/deal with the elements etc

[@TimeTraveller2054]

I always enjoy coming home from a busy day in a city and ordering room service dessert! But that's about it.

[@stefancoban59]

I was the same, until covid, when I did have to use it due to restrictions. And I LOVED IT.

[@maneskinnnnn7190]

some of us are extremely lazy.

[@Flippin2011]

from memory, private hostel rooms are a similar price but honestly seem like way better value! you should test out hostels if you're comfortable with that!

I LOVE how personal your videos are, makes me feel so happy :)

Best channel for binge watching . Grace is amazing ❤️

[@aliciah8041]

I think using the tv at Easy Hotel is extra. You pay the fee and they give you a remote.

[@23jasmy]

Great video, I love this series. Now I really want to go to that fancy hotel. I really hope they see your video and invite you back to the deluxe room or whatever is the most expensive room they have 😍

[@lynneleverton8825]

Loved the review. That second hotel was lush!. I just have to say, being a You Tuber hasn't changed Grace at all. So refreshing! You're fab Grace!!!!

[@ASK-hn3di]

It's crazy how expensive London is - I'm born and bred here and I just visited Rome last week. The expensive hotel in your video was equivalent to the one I went to in Rome - breakfast included; costed £75 per night!

[@ecuteacher5702]

It definitely isnt cheap! I feel like I even paid less for hotels in Switzerland and Norway lol. I love London though!

[@Danbenford]

I feel like if something happens in that first room they could take all the furniture out and jet-wash the entire room walls and all, how efficient

[@jennifercharlotte6203]

The excitement I get when I see you've uploaded 😁 My go to chill time video ❤

[@MelissaThompson432]

With unlimited funds, I'd prefer the bougie room. Naturally, I would irl end up in the easyhotel and be fine with it.

[@JessieCarty]

That pool area is SUCH a spa vibe! This is hilarious about the club sandwich - I ALWAYS pick a club sandwich to try out a new restaurant LOL

So happy to see a new video. You Are such a gem. thank you for making my day brighter with your sweet soul 🤍

[@harmonyhope1709]

I've missed you!! Looking forward to this very much this evening 💗

[@peaceplumbobs]

I stayed in the EasyHotel in Shoreditch a couple of months back when I was in London - craaaazy how basic it is. But makes sense for what you're paying tbh!

[@christinemoriarty7690]

Love these types of videos! That pool was sick!

[@EricaWagner46]

The easystay hotel looks perfect for if you're a backpacker or traveler on a budget without staying in a hostel!

[@Fae_rebecca]

Love this, you should do a video staying in different Premier inns across the country too see how different they are. X

[@MS-19]

Grackle in her element! I'm not a fan of easyJet, but easyHotel is OK by me. I've used it (indeed, I've used the Earl's Court one) several times on visits to London. For staying in the big cities, basic is often all you need; there are also environmental pluses to be extracted from a windowless room with amenities on demand rather than being resupplied every day whether you want them or not. It amuses me somewhat that the wash room has the dimensions and shapes of a train toilet, but at least it tends to be cleaner! In Scotland I have stayed in something similar: Tune Hotels offer a basic room like that of easyHotel, but you can "tune" your stay by adding and paying for whatever additions (hair dryer, breakfast, tea and coffee facilities, TV, iron) you desire. As for the fancy hotel - well, London has plenty and it's the sort of place to which the foreign visitor might treat him/herself.

[@TheBlondiekitten]

Oh I just love you Grace, you’re so sweet and positive. You’ve got me wanting to go to London 😀

Such a fun video :) Only you make content like this! You're a legend

[@Alan_Mac]

Nicely done and both hotels reflected their prices well. Good choices!

[@LifeWithTheCastillos]

We stayed at the Pan Pacific for our 8 year anniversary last year, it's really nice. We actually had the same room. Pool's really nice but I will say the massage, the woman actually tried to kill me 😂 I actually squealed! That's how much my bones were crying, the woman just laughed and said it's okay, it's okay 😂😂 Also, random one...the gym has really low ceilings and my bf tried to do a workout, he could literally touch the ceiling and did nearly knock it when on the treadmill / doing weights etc. The only other thing I would say is the "english breakfast" was pretty dry. Would love to visit again when we're not in lockdown as it was quite quiet when we went but staff were really nice at the bars, made our anniversary really special. Something else happened, but we won't say what as they resolved it and I was happy in the end 🙃

[@here4you2024]

the fact of the location of the ezhotel and you had to go 8 places to find food, but the pan pacific had food...for me that's the deciding factor traveling with a friend or family especially. I don't like places with no food choices and I don't like to feel I have to carry food in case of need. Having fresh choices and comfort is everything in traveling friendliness, then I want to return.

[@sarahjaneholland4672]

Really helpful video Grace. Perfect for anyone planning a trip to London, especially on a budget. Not going to lie, the lack of window in the Easy hotel was a bit strange… think I’d have to pay extra for a window however for anyone just needing a base to sleep whilst exploring London, it a good idea x

[@HelenBeeee]

Cheapest vs expensive day tour. As a tourist I would love to see a comparison of day tours available or visitor experience for a tourist? I’ve loved these videos a lot 👍

Finished work, feet up and now switch off with Grace. Perfect 👌💫

[@lavenderoh]

Got married in Vegas last June and it was my first opportunity for room service. You ordered through the TV it was amazing. The room service was a great price and the food was cheaper than the restaurants in the food court in the casino, but it was the same exact foods. I still think about the chicken quesadilla I got and the pizza was actually so amazing as well. Also got a veggie omelette one morning that was delicious. Vegas was such a fun place all around!

[@joebriscomb3826]

Love the dungarees and the lipstick 🥰

Yaaay Grace videos!

[@erich2099]

Wow, I have no idea what your channel is about and was just looking for vlogs of the Pan Pacific London. But, you’re personality is so charming and adorable that I am liking and subscribing ASAP.

[@carliem9494]

My friend and I stayed overnight at The Ritz on a similar once in a millennia deal a few years ago. There was no in room tea station, but I presume you called room service for tea as you wanted it - we weren’t sure if that was included or not so didn’t (we did get a free paper delivered in a cotton bag the following morning though. We also didn’t dare take anything from the in-room bar as even cheap hotels mark-up bog-standard chocolate bars several thousand percent.

[@jackattack833]

Love these videos! Hopefully I can visit London one day

[@katiesiddons7464]

You need to go on a cruise! I've just come back from a cunard cruise and oh my it was the most incredible experience I've ever had. And you get chocolates on the pillow...

[@heulwen_]

I’ve stayed in easyhotels loads of times. Always been fine! You have to pay extra for a remote control. Same as you do for a window.

[@janecox4173]

Those flowers are called bleeding hearts.....one of my favourites x

[@lizpratt1641]

Cheapest vs. most expensive spa/massage/facial could be fun (and potentially hilarious!) But also for travellers to London cheapest vs. most expensive West End show/seat in the theatre.

That EasyHotel reminds me of my uni halls room (and I had en suite so the bathroom was similar too).

A musical group called Voctave, which is an a capella group, did a cd of musicals music. I know one of the high sopranos. They put out a call for ppl to send in tapes of themselves singing You Will Be Found. They supplied the click track, sheet music & mp3 of the song. I submitted a track & am on their cd! It was nerve wracking but so thrilling for me! Anyway, loved your review of the 2 hotels! I think they both won bc they did as advertised. I do think the more luxurious one was the one you liked best tho. 💜

Graceeeee, just saw a glimpse of your backpack but it looks so handy for travelling. Any chance you could share where it is from? Cheers from Gemany x

[@milkypony]

last time i went to london with my bf we stayed at the easy hotel and it was great because we just wanted a place to sleep after walking around town the whole day! the room was exactly the same as you showed, we laughed so much at how small it was but again, for the price i'd stay there again haha :) also, i'm in love with pan pacific?? it looks DREAMYY

[@FreshSalad645]

Hay fever trick for next year : wash out your eyes before sleep with some physiological serum (basically pour it in, make sure your "under upper lid" gets washed out. It really helps my friend with her allergies !

Thanks for your videos Grace they genuinely help so much. Going through a very stressful time at the moment and this helped me calm down and distracted me from anxiety and calmed my breathing. I wanna go to that fancy hotel now just to relax and recover!! How much did you pay, I don't think I caught that part?

[@JessieCarty]

I think she said $300 pounds but it is normally much more?

[@MT-kr8cn]

good to see the Pan Pacific inside! Its nearby my ex office. But 300 quid for what you get is not too bad! minimalist and tranquil. The breakfast could be much better for an asian chain company...😉

[@renamerryfield9802]

It's funny because when I went to NYC 20 years ago, I didn't dare order room service because of the sheer cost. What's ironic is that I have had to stay in the hospital a few times in the last couple of years and now the hospital system in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA, now has room service. All you do is look at the menu and order what you want that you are allowed to have, if you have dietary restrictions, or you can only have so many of one type of course. It's just too cool.
