Ey up, Chatter Gang!
There’s no doubt about it, QUEENS HOTEL is one of the most well known hotels in BENIDORM’s Old Town.
Ideally situated at the end of the famous TAPAS ALLEY, snuggled between OLIVER’s BAR and BAR 69, the location could not suit us any better. And there’s an awesome SKY BAR on the roof with some amazing views.
But, what are the rooms like? We sneak you into our room to check out the facilities. Please let us know in the comments if you have stayed at QUEENS HOTEL.
Best love as always, Colin & Tim, The Chatter Guys xxx

Hi Colin and Tim Another great vlog on your room. Nice to see Aircon, and i loved that Balcony for a night cap or tea in the morning (or coffee if you brought your own) i must admit for £81 a night a couple of sachets of Nescafe would of been nice. Also guys two single beds, who booked this hotel out of you two ?? Re the counting of the coat-hangers good news there Colin, my therapist who is helping me with the C word Tim used in a previous reply gave me an offer of buy two sessions get one free, and she is happy to give you the free session Colin to help with your dare i say your coat hanger Fetish/challenge in life 🤣🤣🤣 Also Colin there was no need to cover up in the shower, your neighbour in the room opposite with a good view opened up a special vlog called ' Colin the man the myth' so we have lots of details 😜😜 Chris

So the Queens Hotel was owned by a lady called Julia Grant , who was one of Manchesters iconic Pride activist. She owned the huge Hollywood Showbar in Manchesters gay village which is sadly no more 😢 Julia was also one of the first openly transgendered woman , The Queens Benidorm is also on a very early series of Four in a Bed on channel 4 with Julia !

If I remember correctly the Queens Hotel was originally owned by the Drag Artist Levi & the late Derek D, I stayed there a few times and enjoyed it then, my friend preferred the Babylon round the corner and stayed there, I believe it is now closed. Great days 20 yrs ago.

Hi Neil. We don't know whether Levi ever owned Queens 👑. It was once owned by Julia Grant, however. Babylon is long closed, we're afraid. The owner wrote a book about the hotel 🏨 called Benidorm Seriously, which we found interesting 🤔 xx

Hello chaps! I keep missing the Tuesday live chat because it's in my head it's the weekend. I used to always stay at the Queens. Bedrooms & bathroom haven't changed. Only trouble back then was no air conditioning plus if every room had an hairdryer going (if you can find a socket) at the same time the electrics used to blow - but it was the norm for those who stayed to sort out & deal with the trip switch. I remember good coffee - (not in the bedroom) & good food portions - if you liked food from home. It's a bit like a Blackpool (not a bad one) guest house that was OK for 1 or 2 nights. I'm talking 20 years ago & I note not much has changed. I eventually changed the hotel to, I can't remember the street - Hotel Avenida, pass Kafe Klee to the junction walking away from the Old Town & it's more or less on the corner. Brilliant, rooms amazing, food amazing plus! It is full of Spanish people who are holidaying for the weekend. Mega clean, mega coffee! & the breakfast super. I was a snob about Benidorm - until I went! If you want a mad happy night with sing songs & a bit rowdy - you've got the new town. In the Old Town you have got Tapas Alley & you have an amazing gay men's night & the same for our Lesbian sisters. Big, big thank you to you both for vlogging. Think it's been over 12 years since I've been in a gay pub. Looking back over my 57 years - had many a good night's & days & weekends & more. Feel like playing 'Una Paloma Blanca' Pouring a Sherry & taking up vegetarian Bull Fighting! ¡Olé! Thank you again - Colin & Tim x

Is this the hotel that was owned by Julia Grant? 🤩
@idavo
@idavo 11 күн бұрын
@lordmartin2933 - yes it was. I remember watching her transition on the BBC many years ago. I was a young lad & for the 1st time I connected that I was different. Not trans, but gay. I always wanted to thank her for joining the dots for me & making things connect & relatable to my story. I used to live in Manchester, I went out one night with my ex & he took me to Hollywood Showbar (I think that was the name) - she owned it. One night after a drink or 3, I went to the bar & explained how I thought she was brave etc. & thanked her for making me realise I wasn't on my own. She was so welcoming, friendly & was just beautiful to talk to we often chatted on Facebook. There was talk from some she could be difficult to get on with. Not with me. Everytime I was in Showbar she said hello, had a brief chat, 'how are you?' - that kind of thing. She passed at a young age, 64 I think. I don't have a bad thought or word about her in my vocabulary. RIP Ms Julia Grant.
