I Stay In a Bloc Hotel At Gatwick Airport With Runway Views!

[@harrypowell1692]

Tim your videos are the most therapeutic videos on the whole of KZbin. Never stop these hotel, holiday park and other night stay videos. I love them and I’m sure all your other subscribers will agree!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Wow, thanks! How are they therapeutic tho lol

[@harrypowell1692]

@@WalkWithMeTim I just lie in bed or on my sofa and watch your videos with a cup of tea every night you upload. It’s like my relaxing time 😂. It’s just the way you speak and edit your videos which is very calming and enjoyable to watch

Thanks for visiting, Tim! We're glad to see you had an amazing stay, and that you managed to find our free hot drinks room. 😉

[@TeriHargraveartist]

They look great those rooms, and the tea and coffee room is a special touch. To say their budget, good job!

[@chelseagirl278]

Excited I discovered your hotel! Look forward to stay the next time in am in the UK. 🇬🇧. Love the whole look ❤

There's something very comforting about having a nice quiet cozy hotel room in the middle of a busy airport terminal.

[@IceglacierArnar]

I stayed in this hotel...I will use again. Greeting from Iceland 🇮🇸

[@karenlove7935]

Thought I’d make my comment here as well, for those interested in this hotel. I’m currently staying one night at the Bloc Hotel at Gatwick Airport and I’ve been upgraded to a Vista Plus Room - Rm 846, exactly the same room as you stayed in! Really pleased with it and making the most of the cappuccinos on the 7th floor + just to let you know that the room now also has a Nespresso coffee machine with coffee, tea or hot chocolate options and some yummy biscuits!, 👍 Look forward to watching your next videos! All the best!

[@Adventures-with-the-McLeods]

I have stayed in this hotel twice. Once in a windowless room (before my flight to florida), and one in a corner suite where the walls were all windows (straight after my wedding as we were flying to honeymoon the next morning). Both times were fantastic stays and really enjoyed my stays. I would stay here again.

[@glueckskicks_lucky.hiccup]

Hi Tim, my daughter and I missed our flight and stayed one night at the BLOC Hotel. It was a great stay and really something special.Thank you for your great videos! I really enjoy them!

[@Bear-zl5ic]

I stayed at this hotel after being awake for over 30 hours. I have a fond memory of how much dopamine I felt as I realised there was a hotel in the terminal I could just go pass out in. Amazing hotel too!

[@marieryan2541]

Hi Tim. I love the idea of staying in a hotel in the airport especially if you have an early morning flight . Arrive at the airport the day before stay in one the night before and you are ready to go the next day. No more waking up at 2 or 3 in the morning for a mad dash to airport. I think all airports should have hotels in them.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

That's a great idea!

[@charm8167]

It’s a great Japanese Styled compact room in the South terminal easily missed but a high quality and very functional hotel.

[@chelseagirl278]

Noooo the toilet paper 🧻 was in a BLOC 😂!

[@richardbowness1595]

Funny! :D

[@comedyhunter]

What a great idea to have the hotel in the airport, gets rid of all the stress of getting to the airport, love it and glad its sound proofed !

[@PastaSauce.]

We did it before our first big holiday to Florida with my partner. We wanted to extend our trip. Was so lovely getting food in the airport in the evening, getting a good night sleep then easily strolling to the gate in the morning.

[@comedyhunter]

@@PhantomOfArkham yes I hate that stressful morning where your rushing around to get there 4 hours before, double checking everything. This solves that problem

[@lloydmorganmoore7810]

My wife and I stayed here before flying in 2018 and couldn't fault it at all. The soundproofing is astonishing given how close it is to the runways.

[@loobylou471954]

I’ve booked this hotel on the basis of your video Tim, it looks great and so convenient. Thank you so much for the review 😊😊

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@GabyStarbuckx]

You put these together so we’ll Tim xxxx

[@WalkWithMeTim]

lol

I really really love the design of the room they made use of every inch of it it is just fantastic the lighting the mirrors the bathroom the comfy bed the whole thing is just great

[@clarepurves9759]

The hotel is like a mini beamish for pan am and the 60’s it’s beautifuly done

[@CharliePlayz36]

Every year me and my mum travel to Kent to go to the big cat sanctuary and we always have to drive in the direction of Gatwick it is soooo busy!!

[@sarahillingworth2718]

Looks lovely, and definitely a plane enthusiast's paradise 👍

[@WalkWithMeTim]

It really is!

[@insignificantaftermathPROJECTS]

As a kid, I loved watching the runways and seeing all the little utility vehicles etc doing their thing.

[@hjcdormouse7337]

What would be really useful at Hotels if they allowed is for you to show accessible rooms and do they have any Changing Rooms Accessible Toilets. Those views at night stunning

[@kieranrobinson4593]

I've stayed in this hotel before, and a similar full-service hotel in a New Zealand airport terminal. My favorite thing to do for those early morning flights: check-in, drop your bags then head back to your room to relax for another hour before security!

[@d.6593]

Yep and I fell asleep, with all my luggage gone 🙃

[@squidge125]

I stayed in the easy hotel in the Gatwick basement a while back and loved having access to all the restaurants and bars and then already being in the terminal for my flight. This looks like a step up and the sound proofing is amazing!

[@tinaboyle5459]

Sounds so convenient 😊

[@basbeestKT]

The room doesn't look half-bad... Location looks to be ideal too... Great video as always

[@cropstar]

We stayed at bloc when we had an early flight from Gatwick. Really good bed and a really good sleep. We didnt take the optional upgrade of a window, that was £5 more! It's like staying in a spaceship.

[@rob2k27]

I think you've just shown me my favorite hotel I could go too lol.. A cold beer and that view is me complete

[@shanehall98]

It looks very beautiful and it is good it’s in a terminal building. No faffing around just head out and your there.

[@jimbo6059]

It's the old north road office block. Used to be full of airline and airport offices.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

What a difference

[@maureen14]

Really nice room! Just add fridge and I could live there!

[@michaelsteven8892]

Bloc Hotel,The Ideal Place For Plane Lovers !! The video is most thrilling & exciting as it provides the actual spot for relaxing & spending the time with the much needed entertainment of enjoying the wonderful sights of the planes,landing & taking off and other related views ! Thanks ! ❤️❤️

[@Idellle]

Nice hotel, perfect for nervous traveller who want to be in time at the airport, or if flight is cancelled etc.

Always look forward to seeing where you are staying next Tim! You never cease to amaze me with the variety of accommodation and places you go to. They obviously got you sussed this time inviting you to stay & giving you the room with a view! A plane spotter's paradise. x J x

[@rossbatchelor4634]

Great Vid Tim really enjoyed it cool looking hotel

[@betagombar9022]

Great video Tim. Another hi-tech hotel (well for me and my tech knowledge it is!!) For me the best thing about the room was the view, could of spent all evening looking out the window. The corridors looked narrow, maybe it was the dark decor? Looking forward to your next video 👍

[@WalkWithMeTim]

They are a bit but yes the dark wood makes it look worse

[@debbieoconnor7054]

Really good video Tim. Would consider staying there if ever back in the UK. I have stayed in a hotel inside Singapore Airport and its a really good set up. Have great runway views as well.

[@OhioticketswithRobert]

That was an amazing hotel just what you need for an early morning flight.

[@Craigcargill80]

Looks great Tim bit dark in the corridor

[@LexiUnicorn]

Definitely going to stay here next time I fly from Gatwick, rather than spending 3 hours travelling there in the morning. It looks lovely 😍 Never even knew this existed!

[@emeraldgreen1973]

I stayed in the Yotel at Gatwick Airport about 10 years ago, but this new place looks like a better option.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Yes I did years ago

[@MrGreatplum]

Fantastic, Tim. I live only 10 minutes down the road from Gatwick so it’s very rare that I would need to stay overnight there! Great to see the Bloc Hotel - it’s signage is very prominent on the south terminal - looks perfect for an overnight stay!

I absolutely love this hotel. Always excellent customer service and great rooms. I wouldn't stay anywhere else there.

[@gregmichael8473]

Stayed there 6 years ago, before and after flights to /from the continent. Extremely convenient, plus the novelty of being in the middle of the flight action justified the cost for me. Checking back, I pre-paid 10.50 as an extra for a breakfast at one of two places in the terminal.

[@gillianniel-rc2xf]

We could of done with place like that wen we were in benidorm got told on last day we had set off home so we had be at airport at 9,30 in mornin and we were there for 16hrs. That was with hays travel i could do with them buttons for my blinds in bedroom nice to watch you x

Hi Tim ! Wow this is great I've never stayed at a hotel to get an early flight . But I'd stay in one of these how easy . Thanks for sharing with us. Love to you as always Tracey 💕 xxxx

[@teyen0518]

How I wish to stay in this kind of hotel. And I can just sit by the window all day watching all the airplanes taking off, landing and park in the runway. Ooh I love airplanes.

[@mp3bbb]

Great idea and some of the more expensive rooms do have tea/coffee facilities within the room.

[@LSK77_]

Now that was cool 😎

[@machupiku]

So relieved to find this. Staying there in December as it’s quite a distance to Gatwick and we have an early flight. Decided to risk it and so glad it looks good

[@ClipperMaidOfTheSeas]

I stayed here back in Nov. I booked a day room because I landed from JFK at 6am. I checked out at 3pm and headed into the city well rested.

Happy Tuesday Diane, That’s so thoughtful of you, Thanks for your positive review, How are you.. where are you from and how’s the weather over there?

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Glad you like them!

[@fleurg1]

I stayed in this hotel about 4 years ago. My mum and I shared a twin room without windows so not as nice as your room but it was fine as all we did was sleep in it. I agree the beds are really comfortable and the soundproofing is great. We also had a lovely dinner in the Wetherspoons close by

[@cindysunley5992]

I like this. All airports should have this.

[@angier2289]

Super that there is a window in the room (unlike the Aerotel at Heathrow which is VERY claustrophobic!). My only gripe is that for 2, one of you is climbing over the other to get to the toilet in the middle of the night. Anyway, it’s IN the terminal so that is 👍👍

[@dianeprice5798]

Great idea having hotel in airport and very nice and clean room,but I think they should have put bottle's of water in room even if that do have a hot drinks machine it's bit far to go if your not on the same floor,and sometimes might like a hot drinks before going to sleep, apart from that great hotel,and love watching planes, great views,thank you Tim for a great vlog.

[@dianeprice5798]

Soz Tim but I just watched vlog again and there was bottles of water on side my mistake,but still think it would be nice to have a kettle and hot drinks in Room,thank you

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thanks Diane

[@susannah1184]

Nice one, what a find. Thanks x

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@BensPlanesTrainsProductions]

This video had helped me in to getting a runway view when I stayed at the Bloc hotel back in September, appreciate you for the tour of the room and I really wanted to stay at the hotel and room with airport view to do my plane spotting. In fact I stayed in the room you stayed in, as you said very good runway view and was a very good room with double bed. Loved the mod lighting within the room and all the controls worked as it should be. As you said advantage is your right next to departures, good place to rest before flights. Bloc hotel at Gatwick also offer you discount for you to use restaurants such as Wetherspoons.

[@CoolBoyAgent08]

Great video!! ❤ Definitely would like to try this :)

[@matthewbanjomanwalker]

I've got to take The SouthernAirs! To this hotel! Also if you like this place check out the aerotel in LHR T3, really comfy and very soundproof! Bit pricey don't get me wrong but for what you get its brilliant!

[@MariaBottin]

your running comments are so in sync with mine...it surprises me...distinguishes your vlogs from others. chuckle at some comments like what you find appealing (tv is centered and polished items) and what makes you 'gutted'...it does me too. keep these coming you are helping us in many ways.

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hello Tim,what a awesome video,I'm liking the room especially that view,just to wake up and see the planes take off is cool.shame about the kettle but not far away to fetch one.

[@-Tidgy]

Cheers for this Tim, enjoyed very much... I love airports. Room's got a nice cosy feeling to it and the busy airport view outside gives me nostalgia for some reason. Wish I worked at an airport to be honest but I don't live close enough to Heathrow or Gatwick etc. I'd love to live high in an apartment with looks similar to this room and it be right next to a big airport.

[@HSVEOCT]

Loved the video as always Tim!

[@bud1436]

[@WalkWithMeTim]

this was a invite thats why I didnt

[@flowerydaveflowerydave1533]

Our room was so much smaller than this! It was fine, although a bit small (much smaller than yours) and we didn't see the secret of free drinks. We'd definitely do Bloc again for the convenience. Great vlog!

[@Goonerette75]

This reminds me of the Yotel I stayed the night in at Gatwick. Compact, but bloody expensive.
