Is Rookburgh worth $500 a night? Staying at Charles Lindberg, Phantasialand. Review. Spoiler Free.
We paid 400€ for two people, which would have been over 200€ just in park tickets, then a 3 course dinner which would have come in around 70€ for both of us and with breakfast and the land access and fast track entry too, we put the room cost at around 100! Well worth it 😍
Been to this hotel for like 6 times now. Also made a price calculation and its pretty fair! Parking price is included and don't forget the fastpasses. 4 Fastpasses for Taron would be 40$ too..
Been there 3 times now, it's amazing!
One small correction though about the boarding passes, you specifically get one for each day of stay and each person, so if you are alone and staying for 2 days (1 night), you get 2 passes. If you stay with 2 people, you get 4 passes, and so on.
The idea is that, for each day that you're in the park, you can get into F.L.Y. quicker, but you aren't restricted to using those passes like that. You can also use them all on your first day, or your last day, or whenver really.
400€ for
- Two days at the park (a bit more than 100€pp)
- One breakfast (with top quality marmelades)
- One 3-courses meal at Urwherk (easily 50€, it's quite expensive (worth the price though))
- 2 exclusive fast-pass for FLY
And all that for 2 guests. Worth around 150€pp, plus the breakfast (let's say it's 15€) and the fast pass (let's say it's also 15€, like Phantasialand's quick pass) you're reaching around 180€pp. 360€ total : the room itself (wich is actually much more comfortable than you'd expect) costs then around 40€, 20€ pp. Not so expensive, after all...
Thanks for this amazing video!
I would just stay for the ambiance, awwwww man that hotel looks so awesome!!!!
Can 100% vouch for this. If you can stay here, DO IT! Such a cool experience all around. I went solo so it was around €300 for the package, I believe that only had 2 FLY passes. Dinner, breakfast, & the bar were indeed very nice. Would absolutely stay there again!
This hotel looks incredible, it's like a dream!
I want to live in Rookburgh.
Soooo cooolllll!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 from japan!!
I agree with the other comments about the price. You're not paying anything like 300 EUR for the room unless you're travelling alone. We paid 399 EUR but for that you get entrance to the park for two people for two days (that alone is 220 EUR), a 3-course dinner for two (perhaps EUR 70-ish), breakfast (EUR 30-ish) and passes for FLy. So the room IN ROOKBURGH(!) is well under EUR 100. The bar is also really nice and friendly. We enjoyed the experience very much and hope to go back next year.
This would be my first choice for lodging at Phantasialand. Although one reason why would be because I can't decide between Hotel Ling Bao or Hotel Matamba. They're both too beautiful for me to make a decision.
I don't know where you're getting 300€ for the room cost. During the week, cost is 400€ right now for two people/one night. Per person, two day ticket is approximately $110€, three course dinner I would value at 40€, breakfast I would value at 15€, and two skip the lines on FLY I would value at 20€. That all adds up to 370€ in stuff. So room cost of approximately 30€ with private park entrance, access to the area after hours, and an exclusive bar. 80€ on the weekends when it's 450€.
We had a lovely time here and truly don't think there's any other way to experience the park. I'm worried it will get more popular and the price will increase. But it has been steady for the last year, so that's good! If you plan to spend two days at the park anyway, well worth it.
Love the architecture and decor.
Awesome hotel! Mark picked it for us!
My experience with the hotel wasn't so great in december, but still a unique experience. We paid 399 eur for a single night booked very in advance. Of course, 2day tickets are included. Also is included breakfast and dinner. We were on the top floor, and got one of the best rooms for viewing the coaster. Decoration and views are mesmerizing. The temperature inside the room never surpassed 14 celsius degrees even when put in the hottest mode. We were cold - very cold and had Reception handle us an additional pair of blankets (still insufficient). They also explained to us that the hotel uses some ecological water heating-cooling solution (insufficient in the coldest days IMHO). Matress were small and hard. The room is tiny (didn't bother me). Noise and vibration are a problem if you want to go to the hotel for a couple of hours to rest, the whole structure trembles and rumbles like if constructed over a big metro sistem. The dinner wasn't perfect, the included dishes are not exactly the same as the standard paid menu, they are smaller portions. Overall, cons and pros, I would rate this hotel with a 8 / 10 for a single day, 4.5 / 10 for more than 2 days. I also stayed in Hotel Ling Bao years ago and I preferred that over this one.
I remember when it was like $100 per night and included admission and meals plus taron ert...
Charles Lindbergh wasn’t even open when there were taron ERTs .
@@stonie13 it was ert for something. Maybe fly I don't remember.
@@AmusementLabs im pretty sure they don’t do ERTs anymore since the pandemic . And Charles Lindbergh opened during the pandemic . Maybe I’m wrong tho
That was Hotel Matamba and Phantasialand has NEVER included admission in their hotel prices, so you don't remember that right...
Add a Rollercoaster tho.....
I've been here this summer, essentially my first time (my previous time in Phantasialand I was way too young and I cannot remember anything of it) and this being my favorite place on earth, and F.L.Y. bring my favorite coaster on earth, by far, I almost cried seeing this video... It is my absolute purest DREAM, to stay here, even if it is just for one night.. This makes me so god damn emotional and I don't even know why... I truely wish for one thing the most and that is just having this opportunity to stay here for once!
I mean it's definitely expensive but i can definitely see how it would be worth it for some people. Seems like an unique enough experience.
I went with a group that weren't all super into theme parks so we did 1 day and a hotel in Köln and then to phantasialand the next which is probably a more well rounded option for most people.
500€ depending on the days you stay. I’d say that 400€ is a valuable price for the things included in the stay! Best theme park hotel!
Yeah I'm too cheap for this. David did try and twist my arm, but it also looked a bit too cozy! From memory the other issue was no aircon and it was pretty much a heatwave when we went.
cheap asf honestly for what u get
It is a cool hotel. I’d do it, for one night anyways.
Nope thank you , way too much money for a room smaller than my little flat 😮
Agreed but also i feel like you paying for experience
@@puwcyk yeah you right , but defo if it's me nah thanks 🤲🏻
That’s such a sick room…. A little pricey but I’d do it if we were visiting once!
It's worth the price if you ask me
Not so expensive at all... 400€ is for 2 persons with 2 days & 1 night + 1 meal and a breakfast + 4 exclusive (means you can't buy it alone) fastpass for fly.
Yeaaah. If you look at the prices of the restaurant, the 3 course diner would cost you half a fortune on its own. Park tickets aren't cheap either, so if you factor in how expensive the diner and entry ticket is by itself, the cost for the room itself really isn't all that much.
Though I must say this, prices are higher on weekends or holidays, and you generally pay more per person when you are alone. My last time I stayed there I paid 348€ solo. Very much not a cheap experience, but for what you get, it is absolutely worth doing at least once.
@@SashaMasonVR Well prices are high, however it‘s a great experience I think. However, I won‘t pay that amount of money because I live 2 hours away from the park
I’ve never both wanted to try, and never wanted anything to do with, anything so bad in my life.
That’s unbelievably accurate
you repeating that its expensive when it rlly isnt is so funny to me xd
Lmfao you probably don't even have a job.
how is it not expensive dafuq
@@experienceadventures7806 for all the amenities and park admission thats cheap asf xd
@@experienceadventures7806 normally you share the room as 2 which makes it pretty okay. 500 bucks divided to two people = 250 each, Park Entree for 2 days is 120, so you pay 130 for a bed, a 3 course meal, Breakfast, and the "Hotel experience". Its okay
All things considered, and compared to the parks other hotels, it is an okay price, but that doesn't mean that it is cheap. Prices are higher on weekends and the per person price is higher when you are alone.
I had to pay 348€ for a 2 day stay (1 night). Worth it for me, but it's hard to argue that it is cheap.
