Call me a snob but I don't care; you can see the lax in standards throughout. It is clear nobody from Butlins has been through the whole experience and highlighted the lack of hoovering, shoddy painting, stained walles etc like what Tim has. Or they have and taken a financial decision to ignore it. This is a business on its last legs.

I so feel for the room attendants who have to make up those bunk beds! When beds fit so snuggly against the walls like that, they are an absolute mare to make! I've had many a sweary moment doing those in my time! 🤣 But there's no excuse for poor hoovering.

I used to work at Bognor Butlins and as a rule of thumb. The shoreline is a family hotel for families with younger children. The wave is for families with older children and the Ocean is more for adults. It's a great place to work and a nice place for a holiday. Food can be a bit hit or miss though. :)

I am always amazed when I stay at a hotel and the room has stains everywhere. How difficult is it for housekeeping to treat those stains or just do a general once over of the room to look for things like stains on the walls or on the carpet? That suggests to me that either the staff is under a lot of pressure or they just don't care. Neither is acceptable to me as a paying patron.

Hi Tim, love your videos! I work at Butlins Bognor Regis and have done for 10yrs. I just wanted to say (and I know it’s too late now), but if you wanted to go for a walk along the beach, all you need to do is just go through main gate (the one you drive in from) you will see a little gap in the hedge. If you take a left as soon as you walking through the gap, just carry on walking straight and then carry on walking down the pavement for less than five minutes where the corner bends you can take a right and an immediate left by a blue house, you will see the sea front and the promenade. This is the same promenade (just the other end) that you walked in your day visit to Bognor/Butlins back in 2020. Not sure if you would have known this but if you ventured out you will see a cafe call the Lobster Pot, this is one of the best places to outside but local to Butlins if you don’t want to go anywhere into town. I hope that you stay on resort was still a pleasant. I wish to have met you and would have loved to have served you one of my resort famous crepes. But maybe another time when you come down with the family 🙂. Take care of yourself. Dean K.

@@WalkWithMeTim that is amazing, bless them. We do try and advise as best as we can. As I said, I hope that you w joyed your stay in the hotel despite the Bobby pin on the floor and the stains on the wall. The Butlins Eateries or QSR had only been up and running since May just gone. The new building you saw is in fact an activity centre that should be up and running in autumn 2024 🤞🏻. And the other build that was happening as soon as you walk into the pavilion is going to be the new soft play area, so it will have its own closed off building. And it will have three age groups like 0-2yrs 3-7yrs and 8-12yrs (or something along those lines) so would be hopefully perfect for Casper when he’s a bit older. The pavilion will also have a new top in the next year or so, just have to make sure everything is in place at the time of course. But it is very slowly coming along. Dean K.

Great video Tim. Stayed at the Shoreline Hotel this time last year (Rockaway Beach) and having worked on it when it was being built in 2005 I must say it is showing its age a bit. In case anyone is wondering - which I am sure they're not! - I did the drawings for all those internal and external 'Juliet' balconies, also the balustrades on the internal staircases, also those big curved glass balustrades on the south facing balconies, also loads of other little bits and bobs of metalwork like a plant room access ladder if I remember correctly. So it's nice to point out to my friends what bits I did the drawings for, they really appreciate that as you can imagine! 🤣🤣🤣Going there tomorrow for the weekend for this year's Rockaway Beach, not to the Shoreline Hotel but to the Ocean Hotel which was the second hotel to be built on the site. Can't wait!

As a London kid in the 1970s, my parents took us to Butlins every year. Clacton-on-Sea, Bognor Regis, Minehead and even Barry Island. Obviously, never up North, lol. - In the early years they still had communal washrooms and we used to bring our own sheets, pillows and toilet paper with us. Live in Florida now, but would love to go to those 80s/90s weekends! Fantastic family memories....

Correction: the vast majority of hotels and motels in America have coffee makers with cups, sugar, artificial sweeteners, powdered cream, etc in the rooms. Furthermore, many if not most, have coffee urns and the amenities in the lobby of the establishments from morning through evening. Tea not so much, but that is a cultural difference.

I used to work for a hotel who asked for upfront payment for breakfast and most hotels I’ve been to check if you have prepaid or ask you to pay upfront before entering. Honestly I think it is a tactic to try and prevent people complaining and even if they do it is easier to argue a part refund. Tbh from personal experience that “sorry” from the staff sounds like someone wasn’t at the door to get your payment prior to you entering and they were told to get it ASAP. The staff hate it, the guests hate it but management demand those sale figures.
@jamesfoo8999
@jamesfoo8999 7 ай бұрын
Payment anytime at all is fine, up front, afterwards, etc, apart from one time - at the time you are eating. This is just entirely unprofessional. It's also pointless as if you were going to do a runner and not pay, you'd not sit there taking your time eating and talking about the hotel, you'd already be gone. But, it is Butlins not a 5 star setup. Cheap and cheerful, which is fine :)

Definitely different from those Pontins Chalets you stayed in with Gaby & Casper! Speaking of Casper he would love the playthings on the wall as you said Tim I bet it would give him a few happy hours. And the Kiddie Colour Changing Lamp was perfect for him i can imagine Casper smiling at that! I always love those coloured Lava Lamps even now! Definitely looks like they were adding to the Hotel you with all the Scaffolding up! How odd that little microwave in the Hotel Corridor! The Room was definitely in need of a deep clean & shame the bouncy Carpet was stained. I've never felt a bouncy Carpet beneath my feet! Liked the little Sofa. Didn't like that big air conditioning above the Bunk Bed waffing down cold air brrr! But you looked cosy in the top bunk Tim! Liked the full length Mirror with the handy hooks for Jackets. And great storage for your clothes. And I did like that swing mirror with space for make up or small items. Didn't like the Bed head it reminded me of a padded cell a bit. I don't like a badly made up Bed either Tim. But it was a nice basic room with an excellent view of the Car Park. The Sea view was considerably smaller!😂 The Bathroom looked cleaner. The Little Kiddies Toilet Seat is essential to stop accidents like I had🤣 falling in! The Buffet restaurant shame it didn't float your Boat. Certainly a bit more luxury that the other Butlins you have previously stayed in. The other food outlets looked interesting too! The weather was lovely for you there Tim in Bognor Regis! Hope you haven't suffered with this Storm Babet!

So interesting to see what Bognor looks like today. I worked in Bognor about 30 years ago. Looks almost totally different. You needed to ask the staff if they can still live on camp and if they do are the wages knocked in half because of rent, mine was. Yea you had to pay rent to Butlins out of your wages Butlins paid you. Also are staff in the staff canteen sill given 'left overs'? When I was at Butlins whatever people that went full-board had to eat one day we got it the next day!

4 nights for £99 is a bargain, Tim. Looks pretty good for a cheap break with the family too :) I guess the hotel looks grotty on the outside because of the sea air?

it's 4 nights for £99 because everything about the place is designed to extract the real price from You in small doses every time You want to eat, or do anything. Twelve quid for that breakfast? I about fell out of my seat, until I remembered that that's their business model, it was when My Mum took me in the 80s.

You should try the sea view apartments at Butlins Minehead Tim, they're about 7 years old now I believe and they are really close to the beach.

Funny you should say it looks a bit like a prison camp - locally it is known as 'Butlitz'! Yes, it is beginning to look very shabby round the edges, despite the major rebuild in the last 20 years. Oh, and I hope you got to see the miles and miles of sandy beach this time round - last time you said it was a pebble beach: you were wrong! All those pebbles were put there in the 80s because the high tides would regularly flood the road and even wash pebbles into the path of cars and stuff. When the tide is fully out, there's a few hundred yards of very gently sloping sand, and it's very difficult to swim in the sea. Many times we could get as far out as a line of small rocks. Yes, I grew up in Bognor, in case you're wondering! Oh, and quite a bit of the original lower level promenade is still there if you go out towards Aldwick (where my family still lives), and that's also where the beach huts are.

We stay at many different Marriott hotels from budget lines with various kitchen models to the highest end historical hotels. We always get a suite due to our point system and level. I can say we have had amazing experiences all over Europe, Canada, and the US. This line looks like the bottom level Marriott line we would stay in for a night on the way to where we want to end up for a week’s stay.
