I Stay In A 5 Star Luxury Hotel In Benidorm! - OMG

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Should YOU Visit Benidorm 👉kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmrJY4edg9KVbKs

[@gazzertrn]

NOOOOOOOOO!

[@jonduthie2154]

Where’s the link for the other hotel?

[@stuartibbertson2009]

yes been twice i loved it

[@ssheen79]

I wouldn’t go now but I went when I was 20 and it was a blast. Very clubby vibe in certain parts and quite a nicely maintained placed really.

[@lynemac2539]

The infra-red light is for when you're traveling with your emotional support lizard.

[@katiemay3974]

I'd definitely want a balcony. Everything else I could cope with but being able to sit out in the evening/morning on the balcony is the best!

[@kelleennordquist5697]

OMG, I'd faint looking at that view....how amazing..wow!

[@Dingzyy]

The infrared heat directly warms the room which keeps the walls, floors and ceiling warm. This reduces damp, condensation and mould, plus with infrared there's no need for underfloor heating because you won't have cold floors.

[@patrickm1092]

“Running machine” that says it all. Seriously ur videos are helping me plan my holidays

[@npcfigureathletedawnirish691]

I had to laugh

[@mitchelldavidson9911]

the kitty and the sea gulls would of been my favorite thing about that stay

[@darkvader7231]

I've stayed in 3.5 and 4 star hotels with all the amenities that were in this hotel and a lot more besides yet were way cheaper and also included evening meals as well so not so sure about 5 stars based on amenities alone. I think you've been had or duped, no balcony is criminal given its location!!! Thank you for the videos Tim.

[@marcd6897]

Just remember where this hotel is… Benidorm. I mean, what do you expect?

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I know they missed out on that !

[@wendysharp5524]

You should be a presenter Tim you are a natural to TV love watching all ya videos 😊😊

[@robincarter6537]

My father in law used to have an infra red heater in his bathroom 40 odd years ago.

[@lukechristopher4767]

I stayed in a 4* last year, about 5 mins walk away which looked far superior to this 5*! Mine had a much, much bigger room, nice balcony, good food/drink and spa facitilies AND treatments included free of charge

[@lifestylesew]

The long round pillow on the bed is called a bolster, you put it behind your pillows, then put your pillows on top, this is so you can sit up in bed, it props your normal pillow up.

[@davebucket1962]

Infrared lights were very popular in the States in the 50s/60s. I remember them as a child. They were fantastic in the winter for warming yourself. I was surprised to see it there!

[@alainlalonde]

Yeah. I had some family that actually had one set up (cir. 1989 ish?). It's pretty nice tbh. A lot of hotels in Canada have or had them. The idea - from what I understand - was to dry off more quickly, and warmly. It's almost like heated floors, but from the ceiling, to give with you a warm ambience.

[@koogle5410]

If I booked 5* and got that I'd be bloody furious lol...also I'm not sure that lonely prawn had been de veined...oh loved this one..thanks Tim 🎉

[@Curlyperm59]

What a view beautiful. I would love that but what a small swimming pool

[@BoozySZN]

I binged all your videos since I found your channel. I work as a telehandler on a farm, so while working I always have your videos on. you have a great family and most importantly you're super likeable and I enjoy your content.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Wow, thank you!

[@CHRIS-xm1do]

You’re lucky you can drive a T/H and watch vids.

[@davidwhite7544]

Another EXCELLENT hotel critique. You should definitely have your own TV show. Carry on the excellent work, can’t wait to watch the next one 👍👍👍👍👍

[@mtnmagic1998]

The house my parents bought in the sixties the bathrooms actually had infrared lights and we loved them in the winter. They warmed up the whole room so instead of getting cold when getting out of the shower it was nice and toasty.

[@nowaypunk]

The tomato you drank is actually to put on your toast. Very common for breakfast in Spain. Pan con tomate/ tomaca

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Lololol

[@eivissalyn655]

Pan am boli

[@luzvaldes1030]

😂

[@Mc11.11]

Hi Tim, it wasn’t tomato juice, that was purée tomato that you then spread onto your toast with olive oil and salt, it’s a traditional Spanish breakfast (my favourite). Great video and looks like a nice place to stay.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I know I'm an idiot lol

[@timmysawdust193]

You forget the black and white pepper…

[@glumonion1454]

Best topped with Serrano ham 😋

[@Lanky009]

it tastes so good on the bread

[@terezjordon2290]

💕🤣😂🤣😂 I would have done the same! I learned something new today 😂🤣😂🤣💕

[@CherryPieLiverpool]

You literally need your own channel 4 show 😂 honestly Tim have you ever done presenting before ? Your a natural love your vids

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Yes a lonnnggg time ago

[@lauj888]

I SO agree you would be great Tim! When I first discovered your channel I actually thought you were a presenter for a TV home type show similar to ‘Grand Designs’ type of thing! Shows you are doing a fab job!

[@lolosrainydays]

Tell us more Tim!

[@lauj888]

Just to add…LOVE your video’s Tim & Gabby too, and always happy to see a new one pop up!❤️👏🏼👏🏼

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thank you

[@samjames537]

Great video as usual Tim. Keep up the great work. Really enjoy these types of videos always looking forward to what coming next.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thanks 👍

[@traceybeerling4776]

Hi Tim ! Not overly that impressed with this hotel. I'd say it's a more 4 star than 5. No bedside tables, small room ,no balcony ,and a very awkward bathroom. It had lovely views though. But I wouldn't pay that much to stay there. Thankyou for sharing with us. Love to you as always Tracey 💕 xxxx

[@lauj888]

I agree with you for sure on this!

[@ali5on]

Great as always, hilarious food review, please do more.

[@Georginachester]

The ginger cat at the end 😍😍😍

[@chrisonYTtour]

The views are definitely stunning but it does make me wonder about how the hotel ratings system works… I just had a weekend getaway at Palazzo Versace, also 5 ⭐️ but not particularly comparable lol

[@bensong]

Love your videos Tim, only recently discovered them and currently working my way through them 👍🏻

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Welcome aboard! ben

[@christinehodge3608]

Love 5 star Hotel,lovely views, l would love a Balcony room, room so sparkly clean,

[@desimonium]

The infrared is used for drying! That is so cool! 😎

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hello Tim, another great video,it looks awesome especially from the window overlooking the beach.beach,hearing the sea probably wouldn't keep me awake.dinner seems looks nice.

[@gailhickman743]

Theres no way I'd pay £214 a night there.

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh wow - not what I expected at all when you opened the door to that room. Also, WHAT a view!

[@alice-asmr]

Absolutely love your videos Tim 💕 Never been to benidorm. The hotel looks like a 2 star 🌟 Disappointing pool. It was a small jacuzzi in a conservatory 😕 Can I suggest the Atlantica sensatori crete. Beautiful 5 star experience with private or swim up rooms. Much love Alice 💕

[@terezjordon2290]

💕the tube pillow is great during a light hearted pillow fight!💕

[@NickyDunn]

Benidorm. Stayed in one of the towers in the new end on a hen do. An apartment. The views were insane from the balcony. Sunrise was epic. Gorgeous views from your hotel. Especially while eating dinner. Have a great weekend.

[@lauriegiroux1616]

I love your videos! They are the BEST!! Makes me really feel as though I am on holiday!!

[@paulmason6474]

I would highly recommend The Hotel Canfali Hotel which is right to it. Gourmet food fabulous room and excellent staff. Going back April 2024 to celebrate my mother’s 100 th birthday😅

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Yes it's my favourite in benidorm

[@darlene9154]

Infrared lights used to be very common years ago in North America. Lots of homes had them in the bathrooms and so did hotels/motels. I think they use them to dry off after bathing.

[@hatchling88]

The infrared is meant to be a quick heating unit to take the chill off in a bathroom. Yes, quite common in older hotels and homes.

[@StephenBanner]

Thank you for your review, that was extremely enjoyable and very informative as always. Senor, gracias!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

My pleasure!

[@forthrightnight]

I think the shelf above the bed takes the place of side tables quite nicely.

[@steveb1086]

Love that view pretty amazing , we stayed in a boutique hotel in Nice had a real personal touch .

[@becomingmacy]

I totally need that round pillow!

[@lorrainebennett7528]

The gated off steps are access to the beach from our apartment block apparently, never used them!

[@valerieladeda]

Red heating lights in the bathroom were very popular in US hotels back in the day!

[@triciaowings2429]

Hey!another perfect video!Really cool!Lovely hotel and you show it perfectly.Have grown to love your great personality!Also again you look perfect..terrific outfit..very fit and together..cool! Your devoted fan from America

[@WalkWithMeTim]

thanks Tricia

[@heidistinton9213]

looking forward to watching it on my tv as one eye sight.😊

[@mojavebnsf1623]

Tim. It looks fantastic. The last time I visited Benidorm was with my late parents way back in the early 1970's. How it's changed! But you've just given me the incentive to go back and stay at this delightful hotel. Looks wonderful. Well done and I just love your video clips. Thank you.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

wow yes I reckon you will see a big difference !

[@alisonjackson5814]

Don’t stay here! It’s stupid expensive and the whole place needs a makeover. There is a far superior 2⭐️ in the next street! Hotel Rocamar. Or some really lovely places on or near the beaches. Hotel H10 Poniente for instance.

[@slkonnaris8477]

The food had my mouth watering! Great video as always!!☀️🌴

[@Playstation-Trains23]

It is a beautiful hotel and the view is stunning. But then Tim, like I said before, if you go to Altea, you get a lot more space and a proper balcony. It actually looks very similar to the hotel in Altea. I wonder if they all have those coffee machines!. As always a relaxing interesting watch. Thanks Tim.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Noted

[@crystaldance5731]

Great video Tim you look so well stunning views the hotel looked very good standard lovely blue skies and ocean shame about the negatives much as gracious Tim ❤️❤️❤️😊

[@gooders4648]

Just looked up this hotel as we are thinking of Benidorm next year,but wow it’s very expensive for such a small room!!

[@VGL72]

Lovely room, the bolster I would definitely use to prop myself up when reading, the back of the bed is clearly cleverly doubles up as a bedside table… the Spanish don’t drink a lot of tea so that’s why the cups aren’t English sized but then you are in Spain… infrared light is a lovely touch used for comfort and well being…

[@yorkshirepudding6980]

The view is wonderful but the hotel doesn't look 5 star. I have stayed in 3 star hotels in Benidorm with better bedrooms /pools/restaurant. It's not worth the extra money to stay there. 2 star motels in USA are better than that room

[@kellieashman6908]

Everyone is entitled to an opinion but I disagree with you that 2 star places in the USA are better than that! 😂😂😂 The USA literally invented dodgy hotels

[@di496]

Just found your channel Tim and its absolutely amazing. I love all your detail. Keep them coming ❤

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Welcome aboard!

[@di496]

@@WalkWithMeTim Thanks Tim.

[@bulldogsplash1]

They had one of those water jets and stones in a spa I went to. They alternate between cold and hot water whilst you walk across the stones.

[@paulrumbold2436]

Hi Tim , great video as usual , fantastastic ideas and views . Keep going

[@pav504]

It's a lovely hotel Tim and lovely country. Hygiene looked good and food looked good but clearly didn't taste great for you which is a shame. £214 for ONE night is overpriced for me but I'd stay there with a partner I think. Thanks for sharing Tim 👍

[@darrenfoy220]

I've always wondered what this hotel was like so thank you!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Our pleasure!

[@dominatortriumpf9418]

Great job finding the crumblies. Seems picky but attaining a white glover level is desirable.

[@pkurt101]

5 star ? I've been in airport hotels nicer than that. Ok, the view is great but I've seen 3 star Benidorm hotels with similar views from balconies. Thanks for sharing - now I know where not to stay when visiting Benidorm 😄 (By the way - LOVE your videos!!)

[@WalkWithMeTim]

thanks :-)

[@lauj888]

Agree with you there! I wouldn’t stay I dont think, unless it was a much lower price(but even then?)

[@Courtneyburns90]

Oasis apartments have one of the best views in Benidorm and cheap too. We got a room for £180 for 4 nights.

[@MU80k]

Tim - if that is 5* they should be done for false advertising. Take out the view of the beautiful sea and that hotel is bang average. Also no balcony with the beautiful view is quite frankly criminal. Amazing content as usual.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

its to do with amenities

[@rubberduck3788]

As Tim says, star ratings are based on ameneties available to the guest, unfortunately. The Hilton Hotel in Gateshead is 4 star but it resembles a fairly basic business hotel from the 90s and I've hated staying there, then you have the Kimpton Clocktower in Manchester which is also 4 star but is incredibly nice.

[@nicolalunnon5385]

The view from your room took me back to 1973(yes I'm old!!) When I worked as a nanny in benidorm ... Happy memories 😂

[@michaelhartley2893]

That's why it's a boutique hotel furniture shabby chic

[@melcollins1338]

The bolster is always used by my sons to have Star Wars type battles with!

[@bosse1998]

Odd with no balcony! Thank you for sharing!

[@wendyc967]

great spot on the edge of the old town amazing views breakfast on the terrace love it 💕

[@mrlister2000]

Another excellent video, and a beautiful hotel room, with an amazing seaview Would you say the seaview is on par with the Grand Hotel in Llandudno? No? Some people are hard to please! lol

[@kristinayates1]

We love the way you make your videos Tim, especially all the detail you go into ..... it really is like we are there with you because we ALWAYS agree with your comments whether good or bad .... thank you!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I appreciate that!

[@CheshireCat6639]

Yes here here 💯🥂

[@crystalcollis178]

It's a heat lamp to keep the bathroom warm after you get out of the shower.

[@wendycopcutt4891]

I liked the hotel Tim and would love to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean. I always take my own mug when I go away as you can get a decent sized cuppa then!

[@mashenka6189]

So British…😂

@18:20 Getting “eyed-up” by the seagull 😂🤣

[@highpath4776]

We had I think a 4star corporate hotel in Palma for a business weekend away. It was pretty good and had one of the best parts on the bay there functional meeting room for the 120 getting the business update etc on the Saturday morning. When personally going to Spain (once) while I didnt stay there I found that moving a bit inland there were decent small towns with probably small functional hotels that I would probably use as a base to tour ( we actually stayed in a compound near industrial valencia that some friends had , we ended up with a bat getting into the room and unable to get out (shouldnt have left the door open)

[@andrejusgerasimovas1586]

Visited Benidorm once, stayed in “grand Bali “ hotel, was quite nice there

[@beatbonjon1384]

Been to flamingo oasis Lv it mad for sun beds tho but hotel Robin Hood just outside benny was amazing

[@robertfoerster566]

Interesting side point, infrared in the bathroom used to be a thing in North American bathrooms 60's 70 ish. It was used to heat the bather, you could also get a tan underneath it AND... ..."infrared is a drier, purer form of heat that dries out walls from the inside, eliminating mould growth."

[@EK.shortsentertainment]

Love videos like this. More more!! I also enjoyed the budget Benidorm video too😊

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thank you!

[@EK.shortsentertainment]

@@WalkWithMeTim you're welcome! ❤️❤️

[@jamesadamson7821]

Shocking that such a place can be given a 5* even with those amenities. Would be good to see some all inc family holiday vids over the summer - strongly recommend TUI Magic Life Fuertuventura. Great Value. Aim for block 14 for an awesome wake up view!

[@margaretfrost9065]

I remember this hotel from way back (1960) so it is showing its age. Sham as the position is great.

[@solotravelermart]

Best Hotel to stay at is hotel cimbel on benidorm sea front with your own private large pool on your balcony

[@quentinkelly8411]

The infrared light is and olschool thing for 1 drying your hair out a bit and 2 lightly working on your tan while getting ready for the day. Super weird. They also help fry the bathroom out

[@UseYourNoodle]

Great video as always but not 5 star from the hotel. No balcony, tiny room - iv travelled alot and nothing beats Antalya region hotels. Go there soon 😊

[@excelternow]

The long roll pillow is for side sleepers, you drape an arm and leg over it . . Very comfy 🎉💤

[@2010katak]

The infrared warning lights were used in the “olden” days in the US in the 1940s up until the 1960s or so. Very common here.

[@ValerieHolland-un1zm]

You should try the Don Pancho Tim, which is further along the Levante beach. Unfortunately, it does not cater for children - it is adults only so you couldn't take Casper. My husband and I have stayed there several times and have been holidaying in Benidorm since the mid-80s. We absolutely love it.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Yes I hear good things about it

[@doodles3075]

For some reason my reminders not working keep missing you. Just to say what we expect from other countries for a 4☆ or 5☆ is definitely not the same as the UK. Loving the series

[@WalkWithMeTim]

[@valzalevska57]

I like your comments. Great job! Keep going ... 👍

[@misse909]

Interesting what constitutes a 5 star in Benidorm probably wouldnt even get a 3 star in Marbella or St Tropez, just for example. A beautiful view can only go so far. Looks a bit like a diy dad did the rooms up there. Thanks for travels though, great to watch and learn.

[@Akiratatto0]

The red inferred light is to warm walls and floors so it reduces condensation and damp after a bath/shower

[@trevhome6580]

Great review Tim. Many thanks.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

My pleasure!

[@gollyboys1]

I’ve been lucky enough to stay in some fantastic hotels for business and pleasure over the years, I would certainly class this as an ok ish 3* it’s definitely not what I would call luxury and not what I would class as a boutique hotel. Thanks for another great video though

[@lauj888]

Agree with you there, spot on! I used to go to very nice hotels and I would be let down with this place, sadly.

[@shadow-Sun]

Nice boutique hotel , quiet oasis debateable if it's 5 star to be honest , amazing views for sure but that would probably be a big part of the 5 star rating (at least in clients minds ) Benidorm is a lovely place to stay if you take out the noise and the "blackpool vibe " that being said the Blackpool Vibe and alll that goes with it has made Benidorm what it is today and it's a vibrant destination that's for sure with something for everyone .

[@alisonjackson5814]

This is in the quiet Old Town. Having said that, the hotel Canfali next door is amazing. Brand newly refurbished and same view.

[@beccasjourneys22]

I like my tea as well Tim, I brought a cup off the Transport Museum (I like the Underground &trains). It was really detailed but too small for my liking and I spent just over £10 on it. First things first is the size of the cup from now.

[@debrabolton9372]

I was not overly impressed with this hotel. To be honest, I had never heard of Benidorm so I googled it to find out about it. The view was beautiful. Thanks, Tim. 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧
