LEGO Grand Boutique Hotel Modular Building Expansion 

The cupboard door leading between the bathroom and the room reminds me of the Mr bean episode when his room doesn't have a bathroom so he drills a hole into the next room.

Hello, thanks for your purchase and the support, for me it is also an appreciation and encouragement to see my MOC built in the real bricks. And also thanks very much for the nice vedio share and instructions! Have a nice day! - Fanpeixi

Have seen a couple of cool looking alternative builds on rebrickable (using two sets), but honestly, this one just looks a bit messy and odd. Sadly not working for me.

The easiest option would be to replace the cupboard doors in the bathtub with a solid wall and have the tower in the middle as just an unused/ decorative part of the building’s architecture. Could also make that middle tower a little nook for the room on the other side by removing the wardrobe and just having it open. Maybe a chair or planter would fit in there.

Sort of unusual. Although I haven't yet built it, I definitely think that Stonewall Bricks has made the best MOC of the Boutique Hotel. He turned it into a conventional corner modular building and expanded the interior to 5 rooms, 3 standard and 2 suites. It needs a total of 406 extra parts, and if you don't have them its far cheaper to purchase the parts than to purchase a second Boutique Hotel.

I think it looks spectacular from the outside! I may have to do this.

Interesting combination of the two boutique hotels. With some modifications it should look pretty cool

First - it looks a heck of a lot better than the two different buildings, especially when they are side-by-side. Second - my favorite videos are when you create your own interiors on custom buildings - examples are the school and the Daily Bugle. In summary, I would love a new video where you change out the interiors, and fix some of the issues with parts in your inventory. Love your content! Hope Josee is doing well with the kids - wish we could see her in videos more!

You could imagine that the hallway used to be a door when the hotel was opened before they closed it off to make another room, but the cupboards still lead to the hallway because of the hotels manager being cheap and deciding just to cover up the holes with a dresser and a bathtub.

I usually don't mind about interior details on custom models, and from the outside, it looks pretty nice. It indeed looks like a bigger single building. But as they decided to work on interior, I think this connection is pretty weird (I wonder what kind of "imagination" would come from a trapdoor coming from a bathroom). If I could suggest something to make it look like really a single building, it'd would be removing that open gap from the 2nd floor, and making the corridor of both 2nd and 3rd floors serve as access to rooms on both the default and the new sides.

Ack! I just bought two more Boutique Hotels just to do this (and probably add the Garden Restaurant too)!

Gargantos is putting up an epic fight in the Lego city.

The connecting room is like the Secret Annex in the Anne Frank's house in Amsterdam! Hers was a bookshelf that was actually like a door (later became a trope in movies) that led into the adjacent building where they had to hide during the day

All the rebrickable models just blows my mind! Great stuff!

Love your channel! In a world full of "down" you are an "up!" Your channel is inspiring! I saw this Rebrickable model on a Facebook page before I bought the Boutique Hotel. I loved the look so much, I bought two sets, the extra parts & the instructions right away. The build was fun and looks great! I bought a few extra black snakes in order to put the decoration around the entire roof. I cleaned up some of the oddball snot bricks and modified a few things to my taste. The secret passage into the bathroom makes me think of bootleggers and bathtub gin!

The conjoining section I think it is cool like a secret passage

Bro yes! Love this.

can't say I'm a fan of that rebuild

Looks like together, even with the secret hidden bathroom transporter chamber between the two sections (use your imagination)......LOL

Looks so amazing Jordan!!!

I love the exterior, and that's what really matters in the city!

Looks pretty awesome I’m very excited to see this in the LEGO city

I think that this new modular would work great where assembly square currently sits in the city. The beachy feel, the one and a half baseplate size and the fact it's a corner building would work great in that location.

I love the idea of the secret passage lol. The building looks much better now

Wow

I think that it's meant to be like a hidden secret passage way of some sort

awesome video jordan the hotel looks amazing great job

Great combo work

Nice execution…. they do look great together… the pass thru in the bathroom was a short coming of this moc… all in all B+

Looks very nice

you should make the cafe rooms into one big house, witch would make the open staircase make more sense

Love the channel by the way keep up the great work Bricksie

This is wayyyy better than the original set goodjob bricksie!

If they would’ve just built the hotel, in mirror, image of itself, it would be pretty sweet

great video

i love that set. definitely could make a second look more seamless than that big flat wall facing the patio bar. Leave the back flat, The best I've seen a second is to mirror it so it backs up against it and makes a long facade.

If you add a second third floor that mirrors the second one and tweak the interior you could probably have a good design for mini suite across that covered bridge way. Maybe convert the lower floor into a general lounge area instead. It looks nice from the exterior but interior needs more tweaks to help it cohesively flow.

You should double the Dinner, it looks great!

That’s crazy

Itlooks wonderful the amgoe looked weird next to other modulars i love it might have ti make it myself

You should put it on the beach it would be a nice feature adding the fact that it has palm tress iit would be a great beach hotel👍

One of the coolest mocs was the European Jazz Cafe IMO but I guess you don't really need 2 jazz clubs now

Nice Jordan 😃

I literally just got a second one of these off marketplace yesterday

I'd keep the little portal in the bathroom, but instead of opening into a lounge, I'd make it a Speakeasy. If you're gonna have a hidden entrance, it's gotta be for a Prohibition-era style speakeasy!

Wow that looks awesome done brilliant

Cool the extra part is just like the other side of the building only diffrent is that balcony and top part and the top roof part and window on the side. Over looking the balcony yer very odd a cupboard door leeding to Barth room .I like that you seed that extra part should be a hall way true .odd the person who did it must of just free style build it with not planing that cupboard door part leeding to Barth room even I would of put a door in. And chandged the Bart room .😊👍weep build the hall way part and put a door in where cuberd door is

Great model but does part constraints and the passage way with the cabinets make it feel incomplete.

Wait you don't know about the usual secret passage ways in hotels that connect one wardrobe to another!? Well i didn't either till now

Sacrificing the El Cubo Art Cafe for this hurts to see 😂

I just bought a used Boutique Hotel on Craigslist for $50 with all figures, book and box.

It might be like a secret entrance

petty me must be trying very hard to utilize that remaining 9xx pcs into the set as well

One thing I noticed, you don't seem to have any Technic pins attaching the two sections of the building

I just finished the Boutique Hotel. I lost a few pieces so I have to order so I have too order them. I’m super clumsy. They forever to ship because I was told they because they ship from Denmark! I just need to finish th e black chair and get a window pane.

😯

rebrickable is not constrained to just the parts in the Lego set thats the source of the design, they can add parts to be sourced by the builder, so this design is a bit sloppy, looks cool on the exterior, the interior needs work

Was there a members build of this?

I don’t see how this is an improvement. I’ve seen better versions using two. Wasn’t a fan of this modular when it came out. But I think it’s better left as was than this

Wassup

Does anyone know what song his outro is? Sounds amazing.

Some people will find that one and a half baseplates don't sit well in their existing city, particularly as it's a corner build.

Why not take the bathroom out?

Hi can you plz make a new update for the mountain plz read

It's a secret passageway?

When are you going to stream again

Why does this Lego set look like the murder castle?

I think this is a nice build... from the outside. It is terrible when you look inside.

What’s the point of this? Takes up more space in the city, and doesn’t really add anything to the original.

You can see the limitations of this set - having to use nothing but parts from the original set they were unable a) to make an acceptable link across the two buildings b) separate out the middle and top floor of the new building. In fact as you think about this, the two upper suites have to be separate and the best way into the new tower bit is via the new suite because otherwise you have to completely replace the existing bathroom. One of the really cool things about the early modulars is that they all were built on two half-baseplates. This was so much more flexible if you want to use parts. Those half-baseplates are hard to come by. The last set with them was that [*** insert appropriate adjective***] modular bookshop. If I was doing a "mills" project I'd eliminate baseplates completely and use ordinary plates - baseplates aren't really part of the Lego System as their height does not match the height of standard Lego. This means you can never have something with baseplates alongside something without. Also I'd get rid of the ugly new road plates and replace them with the kind of road plate you got with the beautiful Tower Bridge set.

Yes let’s buy $600 worth of Lego

Not a fan of this build personally, I’d rather just use two sets to make it taller

First

Hey bricksie, I try to only leave positive comments but I have to say, this re brick able model is terrible. I really hope you use the two boutique hotels in a better way in the Lego city 😬

you ruined it😭😡
