Ribeye steak is meant to be fatty. It's part of what gives it the flavour :)

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Yes you're right. But the rest of the food and service was dire. Put us off ever going back. Finding a decent meal on Disney village is a challenge

[@davidGPS95]

​@@TheLodgeGuys Do you know what's happening to Planet Hollywood in the village? I hear MacDonalds is expanding.

[@TheLodgeGuys]

They are going to be building a new mcdonalds at some point. Not sure what's happening where planet Hollywood used to be. Hopefully something with good food and good service

[@gottalovetheinternet]

Have you ever tried Rainforest Cafe? Meant to be good! @@TheLodgeGuys

There is no feeling like Disney (wherever in the world you are!) ........"Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy." 🤩🥰

[@marybarlow-ci1wj]

I can’t believe Nick told Leigh that he could get sunglasses at temu but he got the Ray bans Nick should be ashamed of himself Leigh deserves Ray bans also

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Lol. You need a sense of humour like we have

[@JennyS54]

@@TheLodgeGuys, lol, phew, thank gawd you said it, I was about to go off😂❤❤

[@maliixi]

Nick also told Leigh to get both the glasses that he was looking at plus Leigh is a grown man if he really wanted RB he would have gotten them. It’s very unnecessary for you to get upset and make up how other people feel about something that you weren’t even a part of. If someone should be ashamed of themselves it’s you for this silly comment

[@fidalton1028]

You really think he meant to get them from Temu? 😂 oh dear!

[@FINPJENN]

Can always tell when Nick is the one replying to comments.

[@janetovens756]

The renovation of the former Chef Mickey looks amazing

[@TheLodgeGuys]

It is. Just a shame about the food

[@thelawgreens]

Was great to watch your travel day, really looking forward to the rest of the series. See you both soon. ❤

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Was a pleasure to prance around dlp with you

[@darrenconway127]

Can't beat a travel day. Leigh, your sunglasses looked better than the Ray bans

[@amandaturnbull6547]

Yay ive so missed this theme tune ❤ the comment on the woman on the news was hilarious 😂 looked like a fab 1st day 😊

[@TheLodgeGuys]

❤️👌

[@72Jamar]

Loved this vlog. We are travelling to Europe from Australia in June and will be visiting Disneyland Paris for our final day. Can’t wait 😊

[@susanlove5708]

Amongst the many reasons I love your vlogs, I love to hear your narration Nick during the flight. I find it soothing (being nervous about flying - yet flying often) and wonder what kind of pilot experience you had in the past. I have heard you refer to it on previous blogs. BTW my dad was a pilot who taught RAF pilots here in Canada during WWII.

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Nick did flight training at Leeds Bradford airport. In a small plane. He got his pilots licence and flew for a couple of years. Just 4 seater plane. This was way before we were vlogging. He doesn't have his license anymore as it was expensive to keep up with

[@user-ob4xh4gs7r]

Wow a Lovely Hotel. Enjoy.

[@Kerrie.jones32]

Fantastic vlog. Loved the music and the hunky fireman outside the airport over there x

[@stephmcghie8732]

I can't believe Tracy's pie was reheated twice 😮 especially being fish..i would have left without paying, hope you gave the restaurant a damn strong review 😅

[@kevshort3068]

Felt so sorry for Tracey especially there with the food. My circumstances are similar and its rare to get a "posh" meal out, for it to have been such a let down is a real shame.

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Yes it was a real shame as the restaurant itself is lovely. Had we looked at the trip advisor reviews first we wouldnt have gone anywhere near it

[@kevshort3068]

@@TheLodgeGuys you live and learn I guess! Looking at the place you'd think it'd be really nice. My Mrs had a similar experience in Annette's years ago to be fair, they served her raw chicken in there! She can't eat cheese either and when her burger came back out with it on she told them and they just scraped it off 🤦‍♂️

[@TheLodgeGuys]

It's a challenge to find a good meal with good service in the village. It's such a shame

[@pammysadventures]

Fun to watch your Disney adventures.

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it

Omg that food 😮 absolute disgrace I wld have refused to pay full price, your lucky yous didn't get food poisoning...these vlogs are great to show ppl where to avoid xx

[@TheLodgeGuys]

In hindsight we should have just left half way through the meal and told them we weren't paying. Very poor

[@emilymason4827]

We stayed at that hotel about 10 years ago with our kids and had bunkbeds!!! It was fine but then was a bit rundown and I remember there being “breakfast police” on the dining room door in case any one was taking spare croissants out into the parks 😂😂😂

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Lol. Can confirm we didnt see any food police

[@emilymason4827]

Bonus 🥐 😂

[@disneyfam4309]

Love the Dream Castle! Stayed last May, we had exactly the same room and you guys and pretty much that view too! Enjoy 😊x

[@TheLodgeGuys]

We really enjoyed our stay

[@clairehaigh4612]

Memories of getting the bus back to what was then the Kyriad many years ago. I had my son as a babe in arms and I literally had to elbow people out of the way to stop him getting crushed. It was horrendous.

[@TheLodgeGuys]

It's a horrible experience. It's a free for all fight to get on and off

[@LOUFOX100]

Hotel looks amazing. Did you book this as a package and if so who through. Or did you book flights hotel and tickets separately. Great vlog as always. X

So glad to hear that theme tune again, I love it.

Guys Bolt is a thing in London and has been for years …

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Never knew

Hey Lodge Guys! I may have missed it on this vlog, however, please can you let me know how much the UBER was? We normally do magical shuttle but thinking this option may be cheaper. Love the vlogs ! xx

Nick I loved that red hoodie it looked so smart

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Thanks ❤️

[@coopercat9035]

Funny enough in south africa we find bolt much cheaper and more reliable than uber but glad you got sorted ...love your vlog💞💞

we just had a bad experience with it, we do it again in a vlog in a couple of days so you can see how that turned out soon

[@Sue-tj9oy]

Love Disneyland Paris this vlog was amazing nice and long really enjoyed it ,our favourite is the Croque monsieur for food and I love their coffees there, can’t beat a mickey cookie, that restaurant did look beautiful but im glad you went first that food was awful imagine if you ate the Luke warm fish it could of made you really sick get a grip Disney sack the chef thanks for your time making these vlogs can’t wait for an life 🤓😊

Hi Nick and Leigh, really enjoying these vlogs, as it's a short flight ,do you have to have fully charged phones etc before flight ?

The flight is short we didn't have to bother charging on the plane. We just charged everything that morning as we usually do

I have to disagree about bolt. I used them in London and they were fine. Tip - go to a place/road you know they can pick you up from.

Great Disney day! Dinner looks delicious! Would you recommend going in winter?

[@TheLodgeGuys]

it's better in summer but winter especially Christmas has a magical feel

[@jofereday7213]

I think the flight time includes the taxiing time at airport, we went to Venice last year & it said 2 & half hours! But it was 1 hour 55 minutes flying from Manchester! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@TheLodgeGuys]

Must do as our flight was a lot quicker than the time stated

We really love Disney World but Disneyland Paris has never appealed to us but for some reason we really got the Disney vibe watching this vlog, so much so we are now looking at going later on in the year. The hotel looked really nice, just wondering what the price comparison would be against a Disney hotel.

We love it. You just have to be prepared that the staff aren't magical and smiley like they are in Florida.

We stayed at Santa Fe in 2019 and I just hated that hotel. The food was not good, bad Mexican, there was no air con just a ceiling fan. And there was a mandatory power cut on the hottest day. You bought a drinks cup but you could only use it once a day, rip off

Hi Guys, Enjoyed watching your vlog , the Dreamcastle hotel looks lovely, what was the breakfast at the hotel like ? We stayed at Campanile val de france hotel it was ok but your not allowed to sit in the hotel lounge chairs unless your buying food and drink 😮 which is shocking and there are no tea coffee making facilities in the bedrooms. So sad that the new Disney restaurant is bad , i will be avoiding it , its annoying because its not cheap the food should be better . Cheers 👍😊

A shame about Rosalie. At first only saw vloggers reviews of Disney Paris restaurants - but I’m glad I checked trip advisor before I went because remy, and captain jacks have pretty bad reviews and we didn’t bother in the end. Unfortunately we went to rainforest cafe on a whim and that was terrible too. So overpriced and the service seems so bad in all the Paris restaurants.
