The hotel that inspired Fawlty Towers is saved from demolition

It was to have been demolished but now it’s being transformed into a luxury hotel.

Hehehe. I have visions of it being an ironic “luxury” hotel. Ritz salad and lashings of hot Screwdriver for breakfast. At £120 per night and 3 stars, it’s certainly not aiming at the top end of the market… Online booking and everything…

I’d like a room with a sea view.

And I’d like the one with the view of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

Whatever you do don’t mention the war

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the…

Can you get breakfast delivered to your room? With kippers?

Don’t mind the waiter, he’s from Barcelona.

(In my dining room I have a Fawlty Towers teapot, shaped like the hotel, along with a little Basil Fawlty figurine whacking a little red car with a tree branch. :slight_smile: )

I won’t be going there. The place is infested with Siberian Hamsters.
