It is spectacular!! It's a shame they didn't make a point about telling you what time the restaurant closed and served you an used Nutella. I'm sure that Nutella was supposed to be new and somehow you were given a used one. If it wasn't for those two flaws, I would have given a A+ to it.
Kit Kats & other catering one offs = Bookers Cash & Carry ,if its not in stock it can be ordered .They do weird sized stuff you can get in shops .A bit like Morrions , Maccys & KFC who have kick a$$ BBQ sauce sachets - but ya cant buy it for love nor money !
An answer to your question about the periscope looking thing in the cockpit: this is an old Il-18, a Soviet Airliner. The thing in between the pilots is actually weather radar. The navigator has a bigger panel to the side but that repeats to the pilots via a shared viewscope. I would guess it’s in case the navigator is busy or if for whatever reason the plane was flying without a navigator.
I couldn’t believe the small bottle of opened Nutella! Thats nuts that they didn’t give you a brand new one. They gave you a whole airplane but, couldn’t give you a new bottle of Nutella. You should definitely bring a couple things next time. However, that orange juice looked delicious! I also admire the fence around the airplane. It gives your stay a confined, safe, cozy feel. Another great video!
@@shannonmcglynn55 he already ate half the Nutella himself that’s why! 🤣. He must have shot that scene after discovering the restaurant was closed early. Hahahah
Funny! I live a few miles away in the north of Apeldoorn. Which is probably where the McDonald's you've visited is. The planes who land there go right over my house and when people skydive, I can watch them do so from my backyard. We've known about this hotel for ages but we've not seen it from the inside. I didn't expect it to be this luxurious. Thanks for this video! As locals, we love it!!!
Outstanding video, Tim! The airliner is an old Soviet Ilyushin Il-18, and I could not be more impressed with the interior, though less impressed with the Nutella service. I’m a longtime airline pilot with zero experience in Soviet aircraft, but am confident that the odd hooded device was used to view radar. Early monochrome weather radars suffered from being difficult to interpret, and from what I’ve read the hood helped by making the image contrast easier to view and decipher. I expect the radar onboard was primarily a weather radar, but given the cross-pollination of Soviet civilian and military designs of the era, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a primitive mapping or terrain detection capability as well (that I would totally not trust my life to). Some of the earliest airliners I flew in my career (I’m looking at you DC-9 and B-727) had old monochrome Bendix RDR1-E radars with a “Map” mode. (Good luck with that.) I’d love to hear more from anyone who actually flew the Il-18, and would happily allow them to correct me if I said anything that’s off the mark. Again, thanks for this amazing video!
Oh my, half eaten Nutella & Mcdonalds for your tea!! Not the sort of treat on Valentines Day you would want! But the plane was a novelty & I can just imagine how some people would absolutely love being the Captain of their own aircraft for a few nights with a Captain's hat to boot! Good price too but a bit of a lonely location. Never seen anyone jogging on a plane before Tim!!😄
Tim, your video reviews are so well done. I am such a fan. Looking forward to your next video and the lives with your lovely wife. Appreciate your work!
Thanks so much for this fun tour. What a unique and interesting place to stay. I would have been very peeved that the restaurant wasn’t open. Not good that you weren’t informed considering you were in the middle of nowhere.
Wow! I really liked that, and it cost less than I expected so yes I would stay there. Very strange how that restaurant was closed on Valentines day, you would think that would be one of their busiest days.
This is absolutely mind- blowing!! Wow! The facilities there are utterly extraordinary! I wowed throughout the entire video. Wow wow wow! Never seen so many commodities offered by a hotel
Not sure if anyone else has said the same thing as yet - the aircraft is an Ilyushin IL18 that was formerly operated by Interflug which was the airline of East Germany back in the day ... Cracking review and a novelty hotel to stay in ... Cheers !
Fantastic Tim. The only downer for me was the opened Nutella jar. Hope you didn’t have any. Thought that was off. The rest looked amazing. Loved the cockpit. Shame about dinner. You do find some very interesting places to stay
@@Simtalnius Tim said he had asked 2hrs beforehand, they hadn't told him it would be closed - maybe they should have called him back to let him know. Agree it's not up to guest to bring own meals esp for one night if there is something on offer. Just suggesting pack emergency snack options. These vlog stays aren't cheap even if he's making a good life out if it. He's stayed in some overrated overpriced clunkers - all to give us a fair outlook of what to expect.
@@gdparry2727 i'm from Holland and the restaurant name sounded somewhat familiar to me. I looked it up and it turns out that the restaurant was filed for bankruptcy literally the day Tim was there. And after reading the reviews of the restaurant I think Tim should be glad that he visited the McDonalds.
Unusual place. Lovely details in design. So much space. When I think how many of us have to seat in the cabin and this space was offered to you , I’m jealous.
That nutella being already half used…. horrible!! I can’t believe how they delivered such a thing to you. Overall, incredible experience and fabulous hotel
Love the placement of the beautiful reddish glass plate..with the 2 taller pieces at the back when the camera panned down for Tim to take out the seat for dining table the 3 pieces became a sail boat..very kool.
Wow! They really have gone to town re purposing this… very well laid out with lots of nice materials and tech! Amazing they kept the cockpit as original as possible too!
WOW!! Love it! The privacy and amenities (other than the closed restaurant) were amazing! I was also impressed with the price given all that it offered. Thanks for sharing this stay!😁👍🇨🇦
The aircraft is a Soviet ilyushin Il-18, The backbone of passenger transport in the former soviet union, Still a few flying today as it's a reliable, Sturdy airframe.
I wasn't expecting that level of luxury and all the nice freebies, and the high level of servicing. They've spent a fair bit on creating these,it looks like. I'd happily move into it tomorrow to live there!
When i worked in a hotel some 30 years sgo one thing we had to watch out for in the minibar fridge was items that were consumed, then put back in filled with another liquid. We had to check the seals but if it was busy and we were short staffed it didnt always get done, FYI. Let's say once we found one filled with urine! 😮 So always check the seaks before consuming! If in doubt contact the management.
Another cool place to stay. Finland and other places have saunas in their home as they feel it's important for health. They are viewed as important as a bathroom.
This aircraft was in use with Interflug of the former German Democratic Republic as a aircraft used for state visits. It was used by Walter Ulbricht and Erich Honecker. It was in storage after the fall of the wall and bought by a Dutch business man who turned it in to a luxury suite. If you book this place in the summer, the restaurant will be open as a lot of people will be skydiving from this location and the airport will be buzzing with Cesnna's, Pipers and other small piston aircraft. During the off-season it's very quiet at Teuge.
Our Tim, living the Rock Star life! 😀 Thumps would have Loved that cockpit! I think all planes should have a balcony, for smokers!!!! 😁 Could have used one on the loooong flight to Alaska.
I JUST WANTED TO SAY HOW MUCH I ENJOY YOUR VIDEOS UNFORTUNATELY I DONT GET TO GO ON MAMY HOLIDAYS MY OWN FAULT REALLY SO THANK YOU FOR TAKING ME WITH YOU ON YOURS , VERY MUCH APPRECIATED YOUR DOING A GREAT JOB .
What an interesting hotel! Thank you for sharing as always! I am not sure if you take suggestions, but if so, I do have one. I suggest checking out The George hotel in Huntingdon. I was on a business trip to the UK a while ago and stayed there. The place was built in 1575 and is still going. Half of the place burned down in the 1860s and had to be rebuilt, but half of the place is still original. I stayed in a room that was original and it was really interesting. I suggest booking a room with 2 twin beds to get into the oldest part of the hotel. At least that's what I did. The place is admittedly old and tired. It could do for a renovation, even though that might detract from its charm. Huntingdon is also a little medieval town, so I found it quite nice. Maybe because I'm American 😂 Anyway, love the content as always. Been binging your videos again
Just wanted to say you have literally become my favourite UA-camr, absolutely love your videos there's always such a variety as you're always doing something different, so grateful for this channel especially where I'm too unwell to really travel much your videos bring me so much joy and I think you're doing a wonderful job 👍
The rubber eyepieces are for radar - I know Im an ex RAF aircraft engineer and some of our old cold war aircraft had similar. That looks SUPERB. The Nutella was a bit off though that should be a sealed NEW POT.
WOW! Thank you very much for this video. I was not aware this 'hotel' existed! And I am a diehard aviation freak 😉 This just moved to the number one position on my bucket list...as a matter of fact, I just booked it for 2 nights in May! Keep them coming! Appreciate your tipps and reports. Cheers from Switzerland
Loved the vlog Tim, not a bad price but shame the restaurant was closed, but breakfast looked ok, thanks again for sharing your unusual stays, keep on doing them, brilliant xx😊
Its brilliant having the whole plane to yourself. Its well decked out and i quite like it. Its certainly private. I have just looked at the jumbo video as well. Both have their quirkiness.
That was really cool. I like the bath and bed. I would have ran up n down too 😂 Nice selection of snacks and drinks. Shame you couldn’t get dinner despite ringing them that’s not good. The Nutella already being opened was bad too. It’s a cool hotel though and I like that you can play in the cockpit 😊 Thanks for the video Tim
Crazy that the restaurant shut early, especially on Valentines Day. Missed opportunity for the restaurant there! The plane looked lovely though. Great repurposing of an old plane.
Hi Tim, What an interesting experience to have the whole aeroplane as a single accommodation! The owners have done a wonderful job of setting it up for overnight guests. Was a real bummer that The Hangar Restaurant was closed particularly as you said you were located in the middle of nowhere. Notwithstanding a hiccup or two we think it would be a lovely experience to stay in the aircraft. Warmest Regards - David from Melbourne, Australia 🥸👌🍷🍷❤️❤️🦘
Absolutely amazing! Certainly, the feeling of your own luxury private plane. Very well done on finding this one to visit. I was very surprised at the cost, I expected it to be a lot more. Would agree, unimpressed with the restaurant being closed so early.
Ha, the irony of a Soviet airliner being a luxury private plane! Though i guess you could cosplay as one of the high ranking Central Committee members...
I use to work in this restaurant The Hangar but its closed due the owner not paying his taxes as well nobody got payed in the end.. its on auction now. Hope you enjoyed the area around this little village!
Thank you for sharing an interesting airplane hotel. This is too cute and for the airplane enthusiasts so much!!😊 The bathroom with the black accents are cute and interesting. The sauna there looks nice. That was nice to have the dinner table with those black bobble seats. Interesting amenity to sit on.😊
Yeah, wow, the restaurant is closed!! Hmm!! It was 7:15pm!! Hmm!! Ok, next time from your video here other aircraft enthusiasts will know about the close restaurant. You made me laugh when you said tge McDonald's is about 10 minutes away from you there. Boy oh boy, McDonald's is just everywhere!!😊
I'm such a fan Tim, but it's "spots" for the lights and not "sports" I think that means spotlights, I was thinking "wow, there's a place for playing sports as well!!! That has made me smile 😅😅
Great vlog Tim 👍 Amsterdam do have some very interesting hotels. A crane hotel now aeroplane hotel! Wow I must put this on my list of hotels to stay in
Much better having the whole plane for what it is well worth it yes very nice done up even too do the cockpit great video well done thanks tim have a great weekend cheers
Teuge is a really lovely little village and next to a bigger place where I live. Have been there several Sunday's watching the planes going airborne and also the parachutes come down. But never have been inside that plane/hotel
Great vlog Tim, I like the plane hotel more than the other one, very luxurious and great price especially when you got breakfast included, love the detail inside the plane, it's a shame they didn't have hanger restaurant times on the information pack so you knew what time it closes, is it separate prices to learn to fly , that should have given you a new jar of Nutella,thanks for sharing,👍
How fun! I'm curious about whether they ever offered an explanation for why they negelected to tell you that the restaurant would not be open! And I would have told them about the Nutella oversight as well, and expected at least an apology about the restaurant.
My son would love this, i was thinking ohh Gabby should have been there until you said no food. Imagine valentines sharing a kit kat i guess that could work with the drinks.
Wow, your finds just get better and better. It puts most hotels to shame with it's attention to detail and luxury. The design is well thought out and the cockpit is cleverly kept original but safely amended to retain its use. 5 stars for your review 👍😀♥️
Loved this video Tim. You sitting in the bath with the captains hat on was hilarious. Keep up the good work. Enjoy all your stuff and Gabbys. Lovely down to earth family with a beautiful little boy 😊❤️
Hi Tim here I am again in bed enjoying yet another wonderful video of yours .I just love your channel .I am delighted your doing more quirky stays .live all of your stays .
An Soviet Ilyushin 20, from the Cold War. They do get confused with the Antonov 12 back in those days today Russia uses the IL-20s for Anti-Submarine Warfare.
Nice vlog Tim, enjoyed and look forward to the next. Did you know K&ESR / Kent And East Sussex Railway now has its own accommodation coach at Bodiam & a business in Northiam has its own one separate from railway named Railway Retreats. Keep thinking about doing a room tour & review, but never find the time. Somewhere maybe you could go for a review also? Bonus its near Bodiam Castle, Steam Railway and Tenterden Town. 100% recommend a visit to K&ESR, especially getting shots from Tenterden Station of Tenterden Bank & steam trains climbing Tenterden Bank. But nice vlog, think could see them making another plane next door? But nice ,location, restaurant could of been open later thats a shame, yeah cheers. 😀👍
Great video again Tim looks amazing and cheaper than we thought loved the captains cap shame Gaby wasn't with you as it was valentines day take care xx
Hi Tim, wow what a amazing plane. I'd love to stay on that, and may I say, it's so worth the money. It's beautiful inside. Luxurious. Excellent for aviation fans. I seem to recall the box in Amsterdam costing silly money and that didn't impress me at all. I actually felt sorry for you staying there. Extremely jealous for this experience though ❤😊
Loved the video Tim pity about the restaurant being closed and them not giving you an unused Nutella. The price wasn’t that bad for Valentine’s Day.❤️❤️
It looked really good Tim and incredible value in comparison to the crane hotel. Shame you hadn't got Gaby with you and Casper would have loved running up and down in there!
Love it Wow , shame the restaurant place was closed and you had to eat a maccy d, half eaten Nuttella that's out of order lol, so loved the pilot hat Tim 🙂It would be great to have a virtual flying the plane thing in the cockpit don't you think
That was amazing; beautifully designed in there, and spotless. What a shame the restaurant was closed, and the almost empty jar of nutella was a bit naff to say the least. I wonder how long you sat and played in the cockpit lol.

That Capts hat is a nice touch , i am assuming its part of the deal & not Tims personal hat :P

How sad… cant a relative or younger friend go with you? Or go alone ? Do it !!! Even if its just to here ( Spain ).. ❤❤❤
Omg! I want you two to travel so bad!!! We need to start a go fund me or something! Please take a trip! Life is too short!
I couldn’t believe the small bottle of opened Nutella! Thats nuts that they didn’t give you a brand new one. They gave you a whole airplane but, couldn’t give you a new bottle of Nutella.

Yeah the Nutella is a bummer for 400+ euro
You missed a joke there with the sauna/oven. You should have said it is like a dutch oven haha
Hahaha as someone who lives really close to this airport, I made this same joke.
Such a cool idea to convert a plane into a hotel. Looks like a cozy stay.
Tim, your video reviews are so well done. I am such a fan. Looking forward to your next video and the lives with your lovely wife. Appreciate your work!

Bad they didn't tell you they were closing early. 7pm is nuts.
If no one in, they will not be kept open for one person.

I’m still working as a flight attendant and I love it. Trying to figure out how to get one for myself. 😁

A disappointment with the nearly used up nutella. that can't be sanitary. Other than that looks like fun.

I'm such a fan Tim, but it's "spots" for the lights and not "sports" I think that means spotlights, I was thinking "wow, there's a place for playing sports as well!!! That has made me smile 😅😅
Sports toilet 😂😂 I thought this place has everything
I laughed 😂
Wow!!! Looks amazing! Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Another wild and quirky stay! Brilliant!!!!!!!! I Love these!!!!! Food issues a bummer!
I think this is the most amazing hotel you have stayed in so clever such a good use of space
Always good to see you tim stay warm it’s very cold here snowy 🙂⛄️
Great vlog Tim 👍
Amsterdam do have some very interesting hotels. A crane hotel now aeroplane hotel! Wow I must put this on my list of hotels to stay in
Much better having the whole plane for what it is well worth it yes very nice done up even too do the cockpit great video well done thanks tim have a great weekend cheers
I blushed when I saw you in the bath wearing the captain's hat! Gaby is a lucky woman haha
Teuge is a really lovely little village and next to a bigger place where I live. Have been there several Sunday's watching the planes going airborne and also the parachutes come down. But never have been inside that plane/hotel
Outdone yourself again Tim 😊you looked like you were having so much fun in the cockpit 😊
Love this and was funny with that hat on 😊
I would love to stay here but the only thing that puts me off is it’s in the middle of nowhere.
Great vlog Tim, I like the plane hotel more than the other one, very luxurious and great price especially when you got breakfast included, love the detail inside the plane, it's a shame they didn't have hanger restaurant times on the information pack so you knew what time it closes, is it separate prices to learn to fly , that should have given you a new jar of Nutella,thanks for sharing,👍
This is so cool ! My son-in-law is a polite and he would love this !!!
How fun! I'm curious about whether they ever offered an explanation for why they negelected to tell you that the restaurant would not be open! And I would have told them about the Nutella oversight as well, and expected at least an apology about the restaurant.
My son would love this, i was thinking ohh Gabby should have been there until you said no food. Imagine valentines sharing a kit kat i guess that could work with the drinks.
This looked like it was well kitted out for a great stay .
wow tim amaziing and much nicer than that crappy crain place you stayed in recently. The price is also reasonable for what you get. Thankyou Tim
it infra light to see thru fog and heavy clouds, they have them on ships too.
Wow, your finds just get better and better. It puts most hotels to shame with it's attention to detail and luxury. The design is well thought out and the cockpit is cleverly kept original but safely amended to retain its use. 5 stars for your review 👍😀♥️
Big thumbs up for Tim guys 👍
Loved this video Tim. You sitting in the bath with the captains hat on was hilarious. Keep up the good work. Enjoy all your stuff and Gabbys. Lovely down to earth family with a beautiful little boy 😊❤️
Other than the Nutella and lack of a local restaurant at night (!) it looked amazing - would love to stay there ❤
So cool!! Looks like the first bit showed a "would you rather" game! Such fun!
Hi Tim here I am again in bed enjoying yet another wonderful video of yours .I just love your channel .I am delighted your doing more quirky stays .live all of your stays .
An Soviet Ilyushin 20, from the Cold War. They do get confused with the Antonov 12 back in those days today Russia uses the IL-20s for Anti-Submarine Warfare.
Tim your videos are so interesting to watch, fully subscribed and always a thumbs up xxxx
As an aviation 'fanatic', this looks like a dream come true. Excellent report. Cheers!
Nice vlog Tim, enjoyed and look forward to the next. Did you know K&ESR / Kent And East Sussex Railway now has its own accommodation coach at Bodiam & a business in Northiam has its own one separate from railway named Railway Retreats. Keep thinking about doing a room tour & review, but never find the time. Somewhere maybe you could go for a review also? Bonus its near Bodiam Castle, Steam Railway and Tenterden Town. 100% recommend a visit to K&ESR, especially getting shots from Tenterden Station of Tenterden Bank & steam trains climbing Tenterden Bank. But nice vlog, think could see them making another plane next door? But nice ,location, restaurant could of been open later thats a shame, yeah cheers. 😀👍
Great video again Tim looks amazing and cheaper than we thought loved the captains cap shame Gaby wasn't with you as it was valentines day take care xx
Hi Tim, wow what a amazing plane. I'd love to stay on that, and may I say, it's so worth the money. It's beautiful inside. Luxurious. Excellent for aviation fans.
I seem to recall the box in Amsterdam costing silly money and that didn't impress me at all. I actually felt sorry for you staying there.
Extremely jealous for this experience though ❤😊
Loved the video Tim pity about the restaurant being closed and them not giving you an unused Nutella. The price wasn’t that bad for Valentine’s Day.❤️❤️
Great video! Mini Japanese Kit Kats....pricey but there are a lot of flavors.....
That looks so cool. Love the bath. The Netherlands do some cool hotels. Did you know Amsterdam has a cat shelter on a boat?
Wow great place thanks for a great video! I feel like we are missing a stewardess 😍
It looked really good Tim and incredible value in comparison to the crane hotel. Shame you hadn't got Gaby with you and Casper would have loved running up and down in there!
Love it Wow , shame the restaurant place was closed and you had to eat a maccy d, half eaten Nuttella that's out of order lol, so loved the pilot hat Tim 🙂It would be great to have a virtual flying the plane thing in the cockpit don't you think
Water park was amazing all light up beautiful
wow this is incredible to have had the whole thing to yourself its amazing
That was amazing; beautifully designed in there, and spotless. What a shame the restaurant was closed, and the almost empty jar of nutella was a bit naff to say the least. I wonder how long you sat and played in the cockpit lol.
