I Stay In A Butlins Hotel! - I Was Shocked!

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'd have left as soon as I saw the dirty carpet. It is a sure indication of dirt elsewhere, and not acceptable. No thank you Butlins.

[@lynjago6022]

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.

[@ChrisGBusby]

As someone who lives on the coast (Eastbourne) I can relate to the dirty exterior. If you repaint it, it will go green in about a year with the sea air down here. Best to stick to plain brick :)

[@zachkucera3793]

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.

[@andys8483]

Nope, I am not ready to Butlins👎

I would say the housekeeping are under pressure and don't care. The wages I'm guessing they're on is a joke. Although I could and hope I'm wrong.

Lovely video Tim, the hotel looks lovely even with the partial sea view. The carpet and curtains look like it needed a deep clean. It was nice they had something for the kids too.

[@ellymayx]

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. :)

[@stripeydani]

I can definitely see that, though when we went with a 2 year old we stayed in the Ocean because it was the only hotel without bunk beds for the kids. The vibe is definitely less Family and more Grown Up Hotel though!

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Good to know for those of us who don't have/want kids :D

Nice hair.

[@raymondmunroe5459]

I would rather take my kids to a decent hotel abroad than stay in that disgusting place. The one near Weston Supermare is worse..

[@80sKitty]

Why would you stay at a Butlins if you didn't have kids? That makes no sense to me lol. For the price of a stay at Butlins, you can get a holiday in Spain where the sea is warm 😊

[@deanjebuskane6133]

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]

Thanks for the tip Dean, I asked the staff on the reception and that's the way they told me lol

[@deanjebuskane6133]

@@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.

[@traceywinters9988]

Lobster pot is amazing. Always pay a visit when staying at boggers for adult weekends

[@peteking4958]

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....

Every hotel I've stayed in from California to Florida had a one cup coffee maker with a coffee pod that looks like a big teabag and they also have teabags, sugar and creamer packet. Originally from Mildenhall here 👋🏻

[@mrbutch308]

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.

[@franrowe8696]

I've holidayed in Florida and Vegas and have yet to come across any in either the big hotels or the motels I've stayed at? What states will I find this as standard?

[@EspeoniaManga]

@@franrowe8696 they have been in every hotel I've stayed at in Florida. Vegas is the only place I've been in hotels (those along the strip) that didn't have coffee/tea, which I assume is because they want to nickel and dime you. I have been in hotels in Florida, Texas, DC/Maryland, Missouri, and California and they have all had coffee and usually tea as well. I would say it's unusual NOT to have coffee/tea in the room, not the other way around.

@@EspeoniaManga that's good to know, I was treat like an idiot when I asked about these facilities in the hotels/motels I've stayed at. On my next visit I will make it my priority to find one that actually has tea/coffee making facilities. I love a good brew on getting up and before going to bed.

[@loralaibarometer]

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]

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!
