Tim, I've been watching episodes of the Hotel Inspector with Alex Polizzi, it would be a cool series to visit the hotels she's helped to see if they're still up to par or even still open.

[@MargaretUK]

I watch those too, it would be interesting to see Tim visit some independent hotels like those you mention 👍

[@congresstaart823]

Awesome idea!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I've never seen that show lol

[@ThesecitydaysUkblog]

​@@WalkWithMeTimHow have you never watched that?!?

[@johnbarnes888]

Weirdly I’ve been watching that show as well. On KZbin. I guess that’s the good old algorithm at work. Great idea for Tim to visit those places

[@chrisonYTtour]

If you’re not local and after spending a big day in the park, I reckon that’s a great value option for a place to stay, recharge and ready for another day of fun. Cheers Tim 👍

[@walterfillingham]

It actually looks like a cabin on an offshore oil and gas platform in the North Sea albeit more brightly painted, where I would spend two weeks every month on a two week on two week off rotation. We usually have bunk beds (bottom for day shift, top bunk for night shift).

[@benzo900]

I really like watching ur vids, you should go to USA and make some videos there on hotels

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I'm planning too 🙂

[@matthewb604]

Stayed here a few times, it's basic, but after a long day at the park you only really need a place to sleep. For dinner we actually walked to The Red Lion in Thorpe village for a really good meal. Rather than pay theme park prices for food inside the dome

[@shanehall98]

I really like that aesthetic it is like a very posh industrial building mixed in with a beautiful theme. I think Pontins could do something similar.

[@marthaanderson2656]

Cruise ship cabins are constructed inside what are essentially shipping container type units and slid in to place on the ship. The little room has old cruise / ferry vibes

[@jesushitler2000]

More like migrant worker accom, for the managers of course !

[@and7barton]

I love the atmosphere of these kinds of place when they're deserted. I'd keep well away during busy periods.

[@hamshackleton]

That's one long walk from the carpark, for those a bit less mobile!

[@leighmonty13]

Surprised they close the bar and food so early your litrley a captive audience they could make a bundle

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I know

[@EmmaCruises]

I think I'd be happy in the roooom! As long as it's clean, I'm happy. Great video!

[@michaelknight2721]

Thankyou for your Thorpe Park Hotel video,I couldn't stay there,I would need a room with a window.Shame the water park was closed

[@Curlyperm59]

Reminds me of butlins all those stairs and the bunk beds. Not sure I would like to stay there though. Thanks for another brilliant vlog ❤xxx

Can you do a day and evening in the Alton towers hotel, theme park and waterpark please? Great video as usual Tim!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Coming soon

[@leeannw484]

For autumn/Halloween can you stay in more haunted castles/ hotels? I know it's a bit early to be asking but gives you plenty of time to research & book 😁👻

[@liamcollinson5695]

If the want to do something like that I would recommend the golden fleece in York it's allegedly very haunted and doesn't cost a fortune I would say you will probably need some bravery. I have heard so many creepy stories about the place

[@leeannw484]

@@liamcollinson5695 looks perfect! Exactly the kind of place I'd love Tim to check out... Especially as he seems to have some belief in the supernatural, makes it a more enjoyable watch 👻🎃

[@BBROPHOTO]

Ahh, seeing that Canada Creek and Rocky Express sign brought back memories. Classic childhood memories of the area of park now taken up by Hyperia.

[@joannharrington2279]

That would be a pretty cool place to stay. What a great idea to reuse shipping containers. I don't think I would stay there if the park were open. Too noisy and crowded but worth a try in off season.

[@lynnballington8467]

Hello Tim how are you and gabbie and baby Casper and Holly love your vidio of the Thorp hotel Shawn and Charlotte have stayed there too have a good time much love to you and your family stay safe xx ❤😊

Fascinating vlog, Tim. I have seen homes made from these shipping containers but always think they must feel a bit claustrophobic.. Very eerie seeing an empty park in the evening.. I half expected a creepy clown to jump out! 😂 Thanks for the interesting video! 👍

[@CoastersThrillsAndAirtimeHills]

Thank you for sharing such a good, concise review of the shark cabins! ☺️

[@bexhil7]

A good video of I Stay In A Shipping Container Hotel! - WOW!💚💚💚💚

[@stepsgrouprock]

If you're there after the vibes bar and kitchen closes, you can always uber some food to the park. I stayed there not long after it re opened during covid, and they actually recommend it to you. Every time I've stayed there since I've ordered out. It's cheaper, and the options are so much better. McDonald's, kfc, small independent places as long as you put in the parks address they'll deliver.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Yes I did think that

[@richardtunstall9827]

Summer nights used to be great the park opened till 10pm with hardly any queues 😊

[@namits3775]

Looks really nice. The chrome fittings and mirror were spotless to.

[@Me-wk3ix]

If you're a family with small kids that are really about the theme park, this is pretty basic but seems like it would fit bill.

[@bobbythomas200420032]

Hi Tim what an excellent video and I really enjoyed seeing a Shipping Container Hotel Room where you spent the night and what an awesome hotel. . I have really enjoy seeing you make videos of different types of hotels you stay at.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Glad you enjoyed it bobby

[@Hunnysxx21]

Love watch you video and give me ideas for where to go in holiday

Please come to Manchester and stay at the Kimpton Clocktower Hotel, I've worked there previously and would love to see your thoughts on it as a customer

Looks like a great place to stay there , nice room for a small family sleep there at night spend the day out and about.

Interesting thanks Tim great video yes very compact look forward to the next Yvonne 😊

You always make me smile....A shipping container? Oh myCan't wait to see where get to stay next! You must be running out of choices of ''strange places to stay overnight'' by now surely?!!! Not sure I could do a room without any windows again...I did once, in a back street B & B in Blackpool opposite a windowless toilet & bathroom too. I couldn't wait to get out to see the daylight again!!!😵‍💫🌞Great video again Tim x J x

Thanks J

Glad you didn’t end up in the bins. Interesting place. Great video

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Lol

[@Japonicastar]

Not sure if you could, but I’d be tempted to go into the car park in the morning and give my day tickets to someone arriving. You know if you were in the same position and was leaving and not using yourself. I’m sure Tim left far before opening time but that’s what I’d like to do. Nice to pass good karma if you can 😊

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I would have but left so early I did say that at reception they said no

[@jesushitler2000]

Yes pass it along I was at a festi once Eastern Haze only ran for one year twaz nice, anyhoot I stayed to do the litter pick for £25 a day and a guy came up to me on the last night and said he had to go but here, have this 2 grams of MDMA so I shared it with randoms, it was great, Is that the sort of thing you mean ?

Sorry but i wanted to thank you for the brilliant videos you and Gaby do and also to say a massive thank you because my son and i are off to Potters at Hopton on Sea on Fri 7th July after seeing your tour of it back in Jan.

£159 per person that is too , not by room. I thought amazing price untill I just went to book it and came up to 522 for 4 of us 😂

[@Pebblesmistwalker]

We went, two days in the park, free breakie, free parking and an hours fast pass on the second day , worked out cheaper than a day ticket!

[@jenH779]

They are cute cozy rooms

[@sharonellis8776]

That is a good price package Tim. Hotel at Chessington is £125 per night not including any park access ! xx

[@pav504]

Hotel looks amazing such a cosy room and fantastic they got AC cos most hotels they don't and thats ridiculous during summer. I would stay there for sure hygiene looked great. Ummm but only thing is for one night 1 person £159 for me is a little on the pricey side but I mean thorpe park is lovely even when it's empty still looked cool. Also yeah if the music was playing in an empty theme park like that then I would have found it creepy lol. Thanks for sharing Tim 👍

[@keith79mod11]

When I was a kid back in the late 70s I went on a school trip to Thorpe Park. Things were completely different then have any roller coasters or theme park it was mainly water rides. I'm pretty sure it had maybe one or two amusement arcades and 1 or 2 bars + restaurants which us kids was not allowed in as we was only 15 at the time. I do remember a few aircraft hangers as well with old World War II planes. There was also things like boats from the Viking era as I said it was more like a history place, how things have changed. I'm curious does anyone else remember Thorpe Park like this back in the late 70s.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

wow can't say I do

[@katewolfspirit6722]

I remember it from the 80s as a teen. There used to be a rabbit mascot but can't remember his name?

[@Hannahxx1971]

I went with the school in around 85/86... It was meant to be a Wimbledon trip to watch the tennis but after queuing up for ages they closed the gates and we ended up at Thorpe Park.. I can't remember much (my friend and I had been drinking Monterez and Thunderbird wine the night before so we had thumping hangovers 😂). It didn't have that many rides, I don't think and I got a Mr. Rabbit baseball cap that had long ears that flapped... Yep, totally forgettable lol

[@judybee]

Yep, it was a different place back then. Think we visited when it first opened in the first or second year. Unrecognisable now!

[@davidnm21]

Nice vlog Tim. The last time I went to Thorpe Park was in the late 90s so it’s been a while. These are cute cosy little cabins and I kind of like them. Brilliant as you say, if you want the theme park. Really nice vlog.

when i saw the title i had to have a peek, and sorry to say i didnt watch it all & skipped through to the relevent bits to take a look, coz as a kid when travelling round parts of the world i've slept in a plethora of unusual places, (usually for free) such as garages, sheds, shop floors, squats, derelict buildings, doorways, you name it, but never in a container lol, i never realised what i was missing !! - luxury.

[@deancrouch5267]

We stayed there last week and booked breakfast at 8.00. Overall it was very good, you can eat as much as you want. The only thing was the sausages could have been better as not much flavour. The staff were friendly and showed us in and asked us where we want to sit, oh and the coffee was very good had a cappuccino and a latte. For our experience I have to give it 4 out of 5. It was much better than I was expecting.😊
