I would like to see the hotel on the right side of the Parisian restaurant. That way the two terrace spaces would align really well. I think…:)

the Parisian restaurant is the only set that can enhance it. The windows that turn to the rear would have a front wall with any other modular. And who would pay for a room with a view on a wall? :)

Oh my this is gorgeous! I’m super impressed by this hotel and love all the details! Especially the creator expert logo Easter egg! Great review Emily and I wish I could get this set

Great review. Very concise, you included all stuff that was important to include, and gave a good overview of the set. I come to your channel usually for these reviews as they are detailed and yet concise.

The quality of your videos is amazing. I love how you explain everything you like and show close ups of the minifugres and various other aspects you're speaking about

Looks like a great set. Can't wait to get it! Thanks for the detailed video!!

Thanks for the video. Very excited for this modular! I like how it stands out among the modulars. It has got to be one of the best modulars, if not the best. Looks awesome! Can't wait to get it!

I love this review! The style of the editing makes the video all the more entertaining to watch!

Thank you 😊 I worked hard on it! I’m glad it shows!

As an architect I am very excited about this Modular Building. The style actually reminds me of London pubs located in old buildings with accommodation on the top floors. Absolutely loved the art referencing cubist artist such as Picasso and Mondrian.

It looks great. Parisian Restaurant is my favorite, but this looks like it could give it competition

At the accountants desk there is the lego typewriter set, just thought you should know about this hidden Easter egg!

Thanks for doing this lovely review. I am so glad the hotel has a classic design and not the rumoured post modern look.

Can´t wait to acquire this beautiful set. My wife and I have started collecting these modular sets at the beginning of the pandemic and we are looking forward to this set. Thank you so much for this wonderful video.

Thank you for your import looks awesome can’t wait to purchase one maybe two

Been waiting for this for months!

Beautiful building!

I just found your channel, and I really love your editing and camera work!

Definitely going to buy this, great review

Thanks for the review! I just ordered this kit before it is retired. I look forward to building it.

Awesome review, Emily!

Great review Emily nice set have a great Monday

This set looks great! so unique and different compared to any other modular. Dare I say a new era of modulars?

The painting on the 2x4 tile is a reference to a McDonalds Galidor set and the art piece with the basic colours is likely an Mondriaan piece.

Totally agree! If there ever was a modular set that just BEGS to be MOC’d up … this is it! First order of business is to add at least a common restroom and shower for the rooms that don’t have one! Maybe the fact that there are FOUR keys at the front desk … yet, only THREE rooms might be a dead giveaway that this set likely was a victim of “price point and budget restraints” for the designer! Can’t wait to see alternate builds for this “little” jewel!

Cleaning staff bring all their own stuff? Where do they keep the chocolate stored? So many questions! (lol)

Brilliant review compared to some others!👏, nice and indepth. The build is fantastic, can't wait to get this set!!

I really like the "copper" green spire on the rooftop. It reminds me a bit of the Gooderham Flatiron building in Toronto. Keeping with the Toronto theme, the most famous palm tree in Toronto is the Neon Palm at the El Macambo, so the cafe needs a name change LOL.

It was a great hotel set Emily.💖👍

Perfect video, and beautiful set! The colorful painting with black lines is a Mondrian. The second portrait (not he "parrot") is believed to be a reference to an obscure McDonald's Happy Meal toy representing the main character of the infamous Galidor line.

This set sure looks fantastic, but the high quality of your review just make it more appealing. I love how much information you're providing, with all the references included in this set (and the pictures / clips of external references are super helpful). It's mind-blowing to see the video is only 13 minutes long, with so much details and facts included. Truly awe inspiring job, thank you so much

I think the "Boutique Hotel" was inspired by the Hotel de Paris-Monaco. Many of the same architectural elements, color palette, even the palm trees outside🌴

@dailydoseofsunshine2319

Жыл бұрын

We actually dont even have to speculate about the modulars real world inspiration like we usually do for the boutique hotel. The designer of it gave an interview and said it was inspired by the metropolis building in Spain and some other post office in Slovenia

I can't make anything of the last name in the guestbook. Could it be a reference to the dentist from Assembly Square and veterinarian Dr. Jones from the Corner Garage? Doctors (house doctors in particular) are often said to have illegible handwriting. In fact, in the Netherlands we sometimes say that someone with illegible handwriting has a doctor's handwriting. :P

I would guess the illegible name is the dentist from assembly square? Are there any other doctors in modular?

I just orderd the new modular

I believe the art piece using various color squares is actually referencing minimalist art. Not sure if you care but it’s specifically referring to Mondrian art.

The printed piece that goes in the window is cubist style art . The one one you think is cubist is “color blocking” . Easy mistake to make.
