Is this the best modular building ever?!

Beautiful Building. Would have loved to see what the Hotel looks like when connected with 2 other modular Buildings.

6:55 and that's exactly why I'm always afraid of getting the first one xd This set is amazing, you should build a minifig scale Citroen 2CV to go with it.

I personally felt like Corner Garage and Bookshop were low points for the modular theme. But with the Police Station, and now this beautiful hotel, it feels like they've returned to their signature style. I particularly love the colors used here, especially the "light flesh" peach color. I also appreciate how this modular has some empty space. Will give a layout some breathing room when connected to other buildings.

Hey Tiago! Please, please do a “Modular Building Ranking” video.

I’m sure a lot of us, myself included, would love to get your thoughts on your favorites, especially with the inside-scoop perspective you have with other designers and the review process for this line.

Also - did you ever have a desire to design a Modular Building? If so, what would you have liked to create?

[zachcheung]

Just like Corner Garage, seeing how the designer attached bricks at an angle for the shape of the building is incredibly interesting and fun to see.

The best looking still been the Assembly Square considering the tons of references (assembly techniques from other modulars) plus still the absolute biggest modular from all time and tons of details inside... Still this new Hotel could be in a top 5

1:09 How dare you insult the Downtown Diner, it was a beautiful Retro set

You know what, I'm not only fan of Lego but also your fan. I can feel how honestly you reviewing every Lego set from the former Lego staff eyes... Obrigado

[samphillips]

The script for this is very well written especially for someone who’s first language wasn’t English. Bravo 👏

[NickBrick]

I agree with your points about this set not overdoing the detail!

[BrickTechnology]

I am a technic guy as you know, but the modular buildings are just too good to not build them... this one is still missing in my collection. I am struggeling to chose between this one and the Diner (found one for 320 new). What do you think?

[cocoemelie]

This is amazing!
But I think there should have been some kind of breakfast room in the lobby

[alexthrailkill]

I’ve never been into modulars/City, but I saw this set at Walmart when I checked the LEGO section and instantly fell in love with it. You’re too right about that end bit, now I have my eyes on the diner, Parisian restaurant, and detective office😂

Anyone else think the poster for the sax player could be foreshadowing for the jazz club?

[samueljackwell]

The lobby of the hotel does seem to be quite empty, especially underneath the stairs! Perhaps with the luggage trolley and the coffee cart (modified to be a refreshements bar) inside, it'll look much more decorated. But the top two floors were done perfectly, so props to lego for that!
Not too sure how I feel about the mini art gallery though. I like the clever techniques used for the art pieces. But I would have rather had more space for the hotel or the outdoor dining area.
Personally, I love the set, it looks good from the outside AND the inside. But I don't get the feeling that this is a '15th anniversary set'. Maybe I was hoping for a much larger set like the Assembly Square which was 32x48 studs. Still, I haven't bought a modular in a while and the Hotel is definetely a stand-out from the past modulars so I'll definetely be getting it. Thanks again for the review, Tiago!

The print on the barista minifig is actually from the Chinese New Year theme, specifically the “Story of Nian” set (it goes on the grandfather.)

[calvinbond]

Feel positive to the set at first glance, and love it even more after enjoying your professional review and its cozy tone. I have been gone deep into this modular building pool since the Palace Cinema in 2013. Just like you said at the end of the video, really cannot stop myself from adding each set into my collection!

And just some personal thoughts... The set would be more complete if the designer can add a small cafe area + a nostalgic chandelier/jukebox in the main lobby. I would be happier if a bit more metallic gold bricks are included to make the hotel even more classy.

Wow! What a beautiful building. They have come a long way. Amazing detail. I really want to see how they filled out the floors since there is so many angles and shapes. Amazing job Lego!!

[drewvanzee]

crazy that they were actually referencing the next modular with the jazz hall sticker, i think thats the best modular easter egg we've gotten so far
