320 is a Minneapolis, MN, area code. (there's always a tit for tat between Minneapolis and the UK...for example: Prince (the artist formerly known as) passed away on Queen Elizabeth's birthday ..found on the elevator in his Paisly Park Compound (minneapolis), also, during the George Floyd trial in Minneapolis, Queen Elizabeth's husband passed away. Also, 320 was the number of Derek Chauvin's police car. (chauvin or chauvinist pig reference). This stuff comes up, but I'm not sure what it all means, why it comes up or...if a game is going on, how is it done? I have no idea, but 'Blackpool' and a rollercoaster and alligator or snake skin is enough for me to know that I wouldn't stay there too long. lol and shoulders shrugged. Wondering who knows about this kind of stuff. I can't believe they gave you room 320.
Glasses upside down is the correct way to store them as long as they are on a matt where air can get into the glass. Firstly it stops dust getting into the glass if it sits for a while, Secondly it means (more as a bartender like myself) we pick up the bottom third of the glass keeping prints away from the the top third where customers will drink, Thirdly if they have been recently washed it stops water gathering in the bottom and leaving water marks.
Also keeps bugs out , if that is an issue!
Was there ever a more detailed account of how to arrange a glass? I salute you.
The reality is that most people don't keep the bottom of their cupboards particularly hygienic. In this case it might be okay as those are presumably disposable coasters.
Nevertheless, that being so with most cupboards, this means the part of the glass/mug/whatever that you put your lips to is smooshed about in the dirt. That's got to be worse than whatever it picks up between uses if let upright (the same stuff that is always falling and then breeding on the 'floor' of the cupboard).
Of course if you have proper glass holders that hold them upside down and the lips not touching anything (as in most bars) then that's clearly better.
I always used to store my glasses upside down when i was single, but when i got married, my wife insisted on 'right way up', (i think she said so they don't trap stale air), but now that she does the washing up and putting away i don't give a bugger which way they stand :).
@@AdamPurcell I use bar matting on my home bar and in my kitchen
Won awards for being the best hotel in UK, Blackpool and Northern Europe. I work here too and is a nice lovely hotel indeed. 😊👍👌
Nice to see that quality still exists. Nowadays people charge quality prices for substandard service, it was great to see you showing off the cleanliness and tidiness of the room.
Tim, it's quite normal to place crockery and glassware upside down for reasons of hygiene. It prevents dust and any airborne contaminants from settling in cups or tumblers.
You'd think someone his age would know that really
I think Tim's concern was that they were directly on the coasters. I am pretty sure from other videos he doesn't have a problem with upside down as usually on disposable paper coasters🙃
@Twelfth 72 every time a cup or something is upside down he says he don't understand it lol
@@wolvezy ah fair enough 👍
I think Tim always complains that the glasses are upside down but this is standard and in my opinion makes sense
Lovely hotel, I've stayed in one of the suites although I didn't get cake or a note from the manager, they must have knew you were coming
Thanks always supporting Walk with me Tim UA-cam videos 🎉
What an amazing backdrop to have but I guess noisy during the day! Fair price by the looks of things!
Not sea facing it was quiet
I have stayed here before as family of 4. It was good and comfy, nice to have the beach right in front of you
I auntie always stay at this hotel when she in Blackpool, can see why she loves it now. The rooms looks very nice and I love the sound on a VIP.
Thanks Tim, my daughter has been trying to persuade us to take a trip to Blackpool to go on the big rollercoaster, to be honest we've never fancied going as we thought it looks a bit rough. After seeing this video Im definitely booking this hotel for a weekend it looks lovely.
Yes you will have a great time
Blackpool is extremely rough in my experience, but if you’re just going for the fair and maybe to visit the seaside it’s alright x
@@sarahelizabeth2359 Thank you for the warning, my daughter really enjoys rollercoasters and fast rides. We're slowly making our way around the country trying all the seaside mini theme parks. we usually stay for 2 nights, most of the places we've been to have been a little rough, there are aspects of these towns that are run down and tired looking and they do tend to attract the homeless and drug addicts, although some have had an injection of cash and are starting to look very smart again as I imagine they did before people started going abroad for their holidays.
What another classy looking Hotel in Blackpool next to the Big Blue Hotel that you reviewed Tim.
Love the Walnut Wood theme in all the corridors & lighting, you have good taste in style Tim!
Chocolate & Raspberry smells, a feast for the senses!
And the classy dessert & Welcome card from the Manager!
I love that Executive Duluxe Double Room with the pefect Sunset over the sea🌄
I love the Purple & Green Decor.
Purple is one of my favourite colours!
The couch looked really cosy & comfy!
I'd love to sit there with the Delicatessen Chocolates watching the Sun & the Sea!
Mirrors all perfectly polished with precision 👌
I like the look of those Pillows I'd probably only need one piilow.
And a nice firm bed, sounds just right 👍
I love the Walnut coloured Drawers & matching Workstation in Walnut.
Very clean & new looking.
So much to do on that massive Tele!
I really like the Walk in Wardrobe area I think it just adds that classy touch rather than just a bed in a room.
With the Kettle (super clean shiny & bright!)
Even the codinments sound classy.
Pure cooled Water from Norway!
Perfect little mini fridge.
Love the Bathroom with the His & Hers Sinks & Bath mats perfectly on point☝️
The freebie Toiletries are definitely worth taking home with you Tim.
The Bathroom looks a bright a shiny new thing!!
With the Mirrors facing each other going on for a long way like a corridor looking in the Mirror 🪞
The only thing I didn't like was the Air Conditioning Vents again & doesn't look like there is a radiator.
Knowing me I'd be asking for the Air Conditioning to be turned off & if they had a spare Electric Radiator I could borrow.
The Shower Head was a disappointment, it reminded me of a cleaner version of the ones in the Pontins.
And the black bits that fell into the bath isn't great even before you've had a shower 🚿
A rainfall shower I agree with you Tim would look great in there.
But otherwise the room was a 10/10.
It's so uplifting to
see these well looked after Best Rated Hotels Tim!
They always make me feel happy!
Bar & Restaurant area classy still in the Walnut colour decor.
Fancy the Fire Alarm going off!
Hope there wasn't a fire anywhere 😮
Must of been a false alarm 🚨
£19.99 seems quite alot for the Breakfast but looking at that lovely Lancashire Breakfast it was well worth having!
Super Shiny Sliver Lift to tickle the senses!😂
VIP entry to the Pleasure Beach is great for families in the summer holidays.
What a beautiful day it was in Blackpool today Tim.
Hope you have a nice evening there.
Loved your Red Jacket & matching T Shirt Tim, really suited you!
Not surprised it's your favourite hotel in Blackpool.
£140 sounds correct for prices up North I would say for that good standard Hotel.
It was certainly well worth it Tim.
Enjoy your stay in Blackpool.
And hope you get a marvelous Sunset 🌇
Wow better get ready to read thanks becks
@@WalkWithMeTim My pleasure Tim 💝love from Amber! Not Becks😂
Very impressive. Taking into account the cost was for a double room (I liked the divided section for clothes/tea/coffee) I would consider that good value. The cost of a full breakfast in that level of hotel is also value for me.
Agree barry
I love your videos Tim and have been binge watching them all recently. I like that you are so calm and down to Earth. I also love that you explore the good, bad and unknown. I would love to see some more flight reviews but only if possible. Hopefully, many more interesting videos to come. Thanks again. 😊
Already have my yearly Blackpool get away booked. If I’d have known about this place sooner I’d have booked this instead. Looks absolutely brilliant.
Inside and outside to me is spot on and the location with rollercoaster etc is out of this world even more so coming from a small aussie town
This hotel looks lush! Exactly the kind of hotel that I would stay in 😍 great video as always tim 👍🏻
Been in this hotel a few times. I was in a lovely room with marble tiles and a TV. Think it was a mini suite. Big blue was great too. We had a suite with separate bedroom and bathroom.
That coaster is massive 😮
Great to see you enjoying a beautiful clean hotel. Enjoyed the lovely video thanks Tim. 😘💚
Nice hotel very comfortable. Must have hard water because the blacks bits are limescale and debris but saying that I would definitely stay there. The breakfast a bit on the steep side. Many thank for the review keep them coming 👍🙂
I've noticed, that the hotels in the U.S. don't have coffee/tea in the rooms that much. I wonder why? I really love your sense of humor. I always laugh, with every video. It brightens my day. Thank you!
We love the Costal Suites in BLVD. you can’t beat that sea view from the balcony.
Agree
16:47 must be a 'pane' to clean all that glass...
Wow,the house keepers present these suites absolutely superbly,nice one Tim 👍😉💪
Thanks alan
Lovely Hotel,especially for Blackpool 🎢🎡🎠mesmerising Starlings by the North Pier were fabulous! Ty Tim 🎉
That's my pet hate too when you stay at a hotel then they stiff you for parking generally we don't book the ones that do that now
Another great video, Tim. If I ever go the Blackpool, that's the hotel I am staying in. Also wanted to point out that the bathroom amenities are CO Bigelow, which is a pretty high-end brand. In fact it is billed at 'The oldest Apothecary in America'. The last time we went to New York, a friend put in an order from their flagship store in Greenwich Village! Just having products like this at the Boulevard Hotel would be enough to make me want to stay there!
If you liked the lift, stay at The Aviator in Farnborough has the same coverings on the walls
What a beautiful, clean, stylish hotel. The housekeeping looked 1st class you couldn't spot any neglected areas. Thank you for your review I would definitely choose this hotel if I was ever visiting Blackpool.
That box behind the wooden door is for people like me who are in wheelchairs and so can’t evacuate floors above the ground because we can’t use the lifts and can’t walk down stairs. You’ll see the emergency stair evacuation chair next to it. We press that to alert staff that we need rescuing
I thought it might be, don't see them often
Yes, it’s true tim. People with mobility issues are evaced first by the fire services. The mobile people walk themselves out
Thanks for your review,lovely seaside view, and like the hotel.
Its crocodile design i have a Reiss handbag which is crocodile.
The b its from the shower will be as that setting hadnt been used much for a while.
The cake was a lovely touch, but would have asked for a fresh cake, they need to encase them in glass or a plastic, as its the air,makes them go hard.
Very nice hotel, alot nicer than the big blue.
Surprised the strictly cast dont stay there, instead of the big blue.
Thanks for sharing 😊
This hotel looks lovely lovely touches with the chocolates and pen and notepad quite luxurious Tim the breakfast looked amazing a far cry from the bb I stayed in many moons ago thanks Tim ❤️❤️❤️❤️😊
I love watching your vids anyway but especially when you show us the lift, I install them and I was thinking that’s a posh lift….and it’s Orona who I work for 😂 I’ve never fitted those interiors before, they had a nice budget then lol. Cheers Tim 🕺🏻🥳
Lol
Cor that breakfast looked delicious! Hotel not too shabby either!
Love watching your content tim reminds me of going to these places when i was little
Great coverage. You do a wonderful job of showing everything that we want to learn about the hotel. 😊
Thanks
Purple and green are two of my least favourite stand alone colours, but put them together and it really works… the hotel corridors are some of the nicest I’ve seen, really impressed with this place… I’m with you on the extra charge for parking, that’s definitely becoming a thing here in Australia as well unfortunately… Cheers Tim 👍
Good to know if I ever come over
hi good morning
I was just wondering to myself “when will a new Walk With Me Tim video come out?” Then a few minutes later a video comes out! Can’t wait to watch
Lol
Haha I literally wait for his vids😂. My fave channel this.
Very nice hotel Tim when I come to blackpool I stay at the doric you should try that hotel
It was a very good travel day blog today of you chilling out staying in boulevard hotel blackpool tim
Me and my girlfriend stayed there a few years back. One of the best hotels we’ve been in. Love your videos mate!
Agree thanks scott
Nice video as always 👍
It's nice to see inside when we've drove past a few times whenever we visit Blackpool.I'd definitely been keen to stay over 1 time if they do a family room.Its nice & modern everything looks clean & fresh.Thanks for the vid.
Its great, we stayed there in a sea view suite with balcony when the weather was fab, loved it 🥰
Bet that was nice
The bed isn't two pushed together, it is just a divan bed and they always come in 2 halves for easy transportation.
You should try out the harbour hotel in Brighton for the spa and the Jakarta hotel in Amsterdam has an indoor rainforest
I love this hotel it’s looks really nice. We’re coming to Blackpool soon wish we had booked here now, although it’s quite a lot for a family room. I like that you get vip entry to the pleasure beach too. Thanks for the tour Tim
You are welcome Kaz. Where are u staying
@@WalkWithMeTim We’re staying in a budget hotel near the pleasure beach but I’m a bit nervous as it’s got some bad reviews
Nice hotel, and looks spotless (other than the shower water). Breakfast looked good and the dining room was very nice. I`m with you on the paying for parking bit, you pay enough for a hotel you shouldn`t have to pay for parking.
Try looking at it another way...
Arrive without a car its £140 per night, but arrive with a car and park it secure and safe in Blackpool for £150 per night, sounds a better offer.
I like this place better than the 7 star Dubai one, too much! I love England, wish I could go there forever! (USA, Indiana here)
Just throw away your ID and you can come here forever!
@@RAFchurchlawford4469 lol if were only that easy!
I live in Blackpool and this hotel is amazing. I've been in for food a few times and the restaurant is amazing
You should stay in hopp in bournemouth or btooklands logde in bournemouth
They haven't put two single beds together, divan beds come in two separate sections
Blackpool,not my number 1 destination,but stayed here and the hotel is definitely the jewel in the crown, fantastic deco,polite staff, would definitely stay here again.
thanks tim x
That VIP entrance used to be the old way in if you were that end of the fair. I'm sure where that hotel was there used to be a big pub where Lily Savage had a show that was televised. Going back a bit here! Seems a lovely place to stay though.
Yes I think I remember that
Wow looks amazing thanks for filming. Wondered if you can check out the great big pink hotel at the North. It always looks busy, and I wondered what it would be like to stay in.
Nice one Tim looks a nice place to stay when I was a kid we ust to go to Blackpool and Southport every other week great place Cheers Tim 🙂🧳🎥✌️
It must be easier to rip out a safe in a drawer than a solidly mounted one! I think walk in showers are lower maintenance and the way forward! [Just need to be good quality] If you want a bath tough!
such a beautiful and well presented hotel. quite astonished for a hotel like that to be in Blackpool
Great video as always! The bed wasn’t 2 pushed together - just a split divan base which is quite common for larger beds.
Love Blackpool and Blackpool pleasure beach glad you went there!! I think this is a really nice hotel and honestly probably one of the best in Blackpool
Cake! Chocolates! And shortbread biscuits! Love it 😂
Hi Tim ! Nice room quite a posh place for Blackpool. I think the bed is one they come in two half's for easier movability you just put it together. The glasses should be upside down to stop dust etc . Nice but I wouldn't stay there cos it's in Blackpool lol 😁. Thanks for sharing with us. Love to you as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
Wow, this is a lovely one Tim, fab view,book me into a suite 😄😄
Lol
Love this channel. Tim you are an amazing host. The way Tim says VIP 16:12 made me laugh - living the good life 😂. Great content as always
Lol
Would love to do that too 😆
Does look not a bad place for a over night I like it 😊
I actually wait for your hotel and holiday park videos ❤😊
You should like Sunday then 😉
@@WalkWithMeTim omggggg I'm excited 😀
Very impressed. Lovely touches. I wouldn’t leave the hotel room! Especially if decent room service?
I walked into a bathroom like that once, wall to wall mirrors.
I was drunk and it took me about 3 hours to find my way out.
Lol
Great review. If your on park and staying at the hotel then instead of walking all the way round you can get the last Pleasure Beach Express train, that will drop you off at the hotel train platform. Top tip👌🏼
Looks really nice Tim. Makes me want to book a weekend there lol. Thanks.
Use to work at the pleasure beach as a ride op! Was an amzing job
It's a fantastic hotel, stayed there just opened. Now looking forward to going back in July for the Hot Ice show. If Tim you not seen go back. Stay at hotel and do the whole show and dinner package 😊
Lancashire breakfast with Yorkshire tea. Best of both Counties!
Have you ever eaten at The Bank Bar&Grill? If you haven’t you HAVE to try it! The food is 5 star, they have something for everyone and they are incredibly knowledgeable about allergies as the owner is a coeliac. The cocktail menu is vast. My personal recommendations are filo prawns to start and a pina colada, salmon in the honey garlic chilli sauce 4:53 , paprika fries and roasted vegetables from the grill menu, for your main, followed by chocolate torte and a mudslide cocktail.
Noted
Stayed in the Henson hotel over the weekend and thought as I walked past this hotel we would have a video from you soon at it and here you are
I loved that purple sofa
Wow another great review. Only negative was that shower with those black bits. Also I prefer a shower where you can angle it to your preference. Never been to BP before but when I do go I will definitely check this hotel out. The fact that it was so quiet was a bonus. 👍🏾
Hello Tim how are you love your vidio me and our Elaine were in Blackpool last week and we had a fantastic time best wishes take care stay safe xx ❤😊
Thanks Lynn
that cake is the "mini red velvet cake" supplied by Brakes frozen food supplier. they do a victoria sponge and chocolate coffee one too. They cost the business probably £1.40 each and are vegan too!
Thanks Harold, the markup on food in these places is amazing
That hotel looks stunning, such a nice touch with the cake and the chocolates, I bet it was quite expensive though
Two places I use to stay at in the mid 1990 s were the Star Hotel 3 star , great breakfast and the Dolphin 4 star in South Hampton an old coaching hotel. Might be an idea to visit both sometime
nice to see BLACKPOOL working to up-grade the place
Fantastic video, Ihave eaten at the Boulevard and had a great experience, what anniys me is all the negative comments about Blackpool from people who have never been, Blackpool is a working class resort so you wont find your exclusive shops or Michelin starred restaurants, byt Blackpool is fun, rowdy, cheesy, there is something for everybody and more and more better hitel chains opening up over the next few years, knock it by allmeans, but at least pay it a visit 1st!!
I'm an American and I love your channel! You really make me want to come visit the British seaside. Wish you would come to US and rate some our beaches!!
Oh you so should ive never heard of an American wanting to it's always London or Scotland, Manchester etc
@WalkWithMeTim well, until I watched your channel, I hadn't thought about it. Only place I've been to in UK is London and I loved it.
@@rain_down_ America isn't a race...
Blackpool, Skegness, Southport, Scarborough, Cornwall are some really good ones if you want some recommendations
@@joshosborne9964 agreed - editing my response!
Funny thing about holding a mirror up to a mirror - when I was two we moved from Scotland to western Canada. So we'd been on a ship and train for 10 days so, being two that was just a long time and a lot of unfamiliarity. Mum said I was quite the trooper 'til we got to her sister's. She had a mirror facing mirror situation and I freaked out and wouldn't go in the loo. I guess there was a limit to the weirdness in my life.
Lovely hotel I love watching your videos especially the hotel ones
Thanks julie
Excellent hotel and a good price but not happy about parking charges!!!
Nope
Loved this,great looking hotel very clean and tidy gor a vhange, tbanks gor dharong, 😊
Those sweet treats were a nice touch and VIP entry!
Tim u be good at podcasting too with a great awesome review for hotels and travel 👍😃
Glad you think so!
Do like the room and views,clean , and comfortable,
Right next to The Big One. Stunning.
This looks lovely, one to put on my list for when I'm next in Blackpool!
Love your video's about different hotels and Holidays abroad very interesting ty Tim
Thanks Julie
Very impressive.
Hey Tim! I have another recommendation for ya; Village Hotel chain! I stayed in the one premium room in Bristol Parkway and it had the coolest frosted bathroom glass ever
Hi Tim
Very luxurious. You are right about the shower head. Ugh. I would prefer just a walk in shower not a bath included. They still have to work on the stale cake. Love the tv. Breakfast needs to be upgraded too. For that price a choice of poached eggs on toast with smoked salmon and avocado. Surprisingly filling🍀😄💕
Thank goodness, I was beginning to think cleaners were extinct! This was a beautiful room.
