NOTIFICATION SQUAD: It's time for Connor's reward after eating 100 bowls of soba noodles! But WHAT do you think of the room? And in case you missed the pain he (or rather we) went through in the previous video, be sure to give it a watch here! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/eXmbint_fWpyk4E.html

You didn’t even eat 100 bowls, should be me at that hotel😒

Connor the night before: *A Lord looking over this domain in elegance and style* Connor the morning after: “yo grab all the free stuff dude we paid for this!”

As someone who works at a resort hotel, TAKE ALL THE FREEBIES!! Unless the amenities are completely untouched we throw them away, usually erring on the side of caution. If you don't feel like hoarding a bunch of hotel soaps and coffee you can always donate them to a homeless shelter or food bank. Working in hospitality can be exhausting sometimes but replacing amenities is the easiest step to cleaning a room, you are not greedy for taking them.

“You’re stealing the goods!” “What do you mean? We payed for it!” The conversation every family has when they go to a hotel.

Life Hack: if it's complimentary.. take it 😆

Chris is such a gentleman, he treats his date to fine dining and then brings them back to his 12k hotel room.

Fun life hack: If you ever go to a really nice hotel and love the pillows there, take off the pillowcases and find the brand tag and look them up online. My mom did that once at a Disney resort and they're the pillows she's used ever since. I'm sure the pillows in this suite are hella expensive, but it's always worth it to check.

UK: "Never, ever, ever freeze a steak" Japan: "This steak was frozen, in snow, you must pay 5 times the usual price!"

Virgin Connor : Takes Chris to the worst rated hotel for wacky weekend. Chad broad : Treats Connor to an all you can eat wanko soba until he can‘t eat anymore and brings him to $12.000 hotel

Nice to see Connor and Chris really embracing their British heritage by ransacking the entire hotel room.

I've worked for hotel cleaning/hospitality, and we were required to throw away anything left in the room, after the guest checked out, anyways, so those coulda been wasted. I do not blame Connor.

I feel like Chris is giving proud dad vibes whos treating his teenage son. Especially when Conner was so excited over the coffee machine "yes very cool."

incredible experience to stay in that suite!

Respect to Connor for representing the common man and taking every disposable item in the hotel room

Connor reacting to the 12K Hotel suite: omg this is amazing! Connor reacting to the coffee machine: *MILK FROTHER* 🤩🤯😳

it would be interesting to see more luxury hotel reviews! as someone who works in a similar luxury hotel, it's refreshing to see it from this angle. when you work in one, the magic of them eventually wears off (especially when rich people complain about the tiniest of details)

I think the fact that this hotel invited Chris to do a review in their best room shows how far he has come and how he is now seen as one of the main influencers in Japan. I mean that is some reputation he has built. Great work Chris and well deserved. Edit: To think you started off youtube on a bed on the floor in a sub $500 dollar apartment and 9 years later you are on top of Japan in a $12,000.00 bed. Again, well deserved.

I feel so privileged to witness Connor and Chris' extended honeymoon

Wow! I spent 7 years in the US and finally am back to Japan. I was a bit depressed at first because I was missing my friends I made in the US, but watching your videos really enlighten me and makes me want to explore my own country more! I also see thar you are located in Tohoku, which is also where I live in, so I am glad you are highlighting my hometown a lot as its usually doesnt get a lot of attentions from people.

What an amazing hotel room. Every part was jaw-dropping and stunning. I thought the shot of Connor through the window dancing was a drone shot or something. The fact that you were still inside the hotel room is amazing.

"Is this fun to watch? Two dickheads just having a nice time." Yeah, it's really fun. I sometimes watch videos about luxury hotels but the commentary is always done by people very disconnected from normal people, like they're so rich they don't know what normal people like. It's nice to watch a luxury hotel review done by you two.

I had the pleasure of Staying at the Andaz when I visited Tokyo back in 2008. I was currently working for the Hyatt and got some free rooms, it was epic. I am sad they didn't give me this room as an employee discount.

Chris I can tell you confidently this kind of content is indeed fun to watch. Although I will always enjoy you torturing Connor with bad hotels and abandoned theme parks, it is also genuinely enjoyable to see you guys just hanging out and having a good time at a nice venue like this one. I’d happily watch a video of you and Connor just sitting in your apartment chatting honestly. The venues and travels are incredible but it’s you and Connor who keep me coming back. I love this series though. It is always a joy to watch you having fun times with your friends.

To answer at least one of Chris' questions, YES I would love to see a series of the 2 of them going around reviewing luxury hotels

"Is this fun to watch? Two dickheads just having a nice time?" Me: Yes, Chris. "With my lobster bisque." Me: Yes, Connor.

5:40 I absolutely lost it at Chris’s dramatic reaction to the ‘milk frother’

10:27 I would absolutely love a series of videos where Chris & Connor both go around luxury hotels - I know they have been to hotels but genuinely my favourite videos are the ones of the two of you just enjoying luxury for a bit. Answer to Chris' question at 10:30 - yes, yes it is 🙂

So happy for you guys! Your channels have really enriched my life. Hope many more wonderful experiences await you in 2022. ☺️

Priorities. Chris: Unbelievable view of all Tokyo, has a dining area made specifically to blackmail your enemies Connor: The coffee machine has a milk frother

Hey Chris, just wanted to say thank you so much for making your videos for the last 10 years. You are an extremely talented director, cinematographer and story teller. I have enjoyed watching your documentaries, short films and funny one-off videos for many years and just wanted to express my admiration for your talent. I also absolutely love the podcast with Pete and am overjoyed that we get two episodes a week now instead of one. Thank you so much for all your hard work and passion. Your videos and podcasts have always brought me tremendous joy but, particularly during these awful times, it has impacted me way more emotionally and mentally, in the positive sense. My soul aches to return to Japan -- I visited for the first time in the spring of 2019 -- and your videos and podcasts have been my window. So, thank you for letting my soul live vicariously through you and your friends adventures in Japan. Good health and happiness to you and your friends and family. With love, from New York City.

Thanks so much for all your videos, Chris! I've been in isolation for the past week and have binged the hell out of them! Thanks for making iso a little easier to bear!

I'm glad I'm not the only one obsessed with good baths. I swear I would visit Japan purely to visit an onsen lmao.

Connor: "Elegance, Class, Subtlety, Modesty." (3:35) Also Connor: Dances above Peasants (15:49)

Connor: * enters most expensive hotel room in Tokyo* Also Connor: *is most excited about bog-standard Nespresso machine that has been in my kitchen for the past year*

I have been to Japan 18 times sine 2010, but since January 2019 I haven’t been able visit. Now with all the restrictions Japan had imposed I haven’t been able to travel there to visit my Japanese wife. Your videos however have given me some confort during these last few months. Keep up the good work and try to find the good side of Nagoya! it is not all boring… Check inuyama Castle, Sakae, Osu… On the other hand I do agree that Kanazawa Fish Market is great but maybe next time you visit you can go to the Castle and Gardens. Greetings from London!

What an amazing experience! Great review, you guys clearly enjoyed your stay. That stunning view!

Connor taking every ''free'' thing that the hotel room included with him is honestly the biggest mood ever

I know they were making a joke, but I would 100% watch a series following these guys at various luxury hotels across japan and the world.

Envious, what a beautiful room and an even better view. Glad you got to enjoy it and took us along for the ride!

love the videos keep it up always upping the quality. good job!!

Fucking love Connor ransacking the room. We have the same energy.

Connor during the stay: A lord watching over his domain. Conner after the stay: A ex-lord escaping from his domain sweeping all the treasures with him.

I love all the content that chris makes. I watch them in random binges old and new. All great! Cant wait to read the book

Awesome videos Chris! Lived in Japan for 20 years but I am strangely enjoying Japan by watching your videos than when I lived there. Looking forward to meet you in person one day, in a bar in Shinjuku or something

"Is this fun to watch? Just two dickheads having a nice time?" Yes it's very fun to watch. Especially because it's regular people's opinions on things 98% of people couldn't think of seeing in their lifetimes.

Re: taking the free stuff, it's actually encouraged. Some product they have to throw out even if you haven't touched it for sanitary reasons. With a hotel this nice, they can afford to miss a few items.

Hi Chris and Connor, fantastic review. You guys did a far better review of the Andaz Hotel than a professional advertising agency. The repartee was natural and not a script, great flow in the video. The video made a pretty bland topic, fun and exciting. You guys have become a Japan institution. Can not wait to see the movie. Cheers...Keep up the great work.

I would absolutely love to see more luxury hotel reviews with you and Connor!

To be fair, I'd probably take the pillows, sheets and coffee machine with me if I stayed at a 12.000 dollar hotel.

That's the sweetest anniversary gift you could have given him, Chris. And people say romance is dead.

Great video Chris and Connor. Spectacular views and the room is amazing. The room service meal looked fantastic. Reviewing luxury suites with two lads would be perfect and very entertaining. My favourite videos of yours are the Onsens hotel reviews. Is it possible for you to arrange a visit to a Geisha School? That would be interesting. I would love to see you two lads trying to learn a graceful fan dance.

caught asian boss interview and wanted to say I caught your fukushima doc back then and your other videos and journey over the years and I could sense your strong desire to want to make docs like ones narrated by David Attenborough. Def looking forward to the Ken Watanabe interview! keep up the quality work! a supporter here forever!

10:27 - “why don’t we just review luxury hotels?” 10:38 - that’s why, Connor.

"Is this fun to watch?" Chris, this is an absolute joy to watch.

Absolutely loved this video! I would definitely enjoy a Chris and Connor review luxury hotels series

New to the channel and I just wanna say I absolutely adore your videos Chris! Ever since watching the Soba challenge with Connor, I've been binging your videos and other than your great experiences in exploring Japan, have gotten introduced to such great personalities like Natsuki, Ryotaro, Roy, Quinlan, Sharla, Pete, and of course the boys from Trash Taste! I hope 2022 and beyond will be great for you and everyone involved in Abroad in Japan! I also think your channel name is absolutely brilliant after finding out your last name is Broad.

I've been waiting for this... That view of the Tokyo tower is amazing! When are you moving in Chris?? Side note, I'm really not sure about that toilet with the mirror right in front of it....

Chris: "This amazing room cost $12,000 a night" Connor: "This coffee machine though"

I appreciate the effort in the small details, like messing up the sheets in both beds, as if the smaller had been slept in

Just wanted to say i just discovered your channel 4 days ago and been bingewatching your channel since. So funny and interesting!

Chris and Connor in true British way, stole all alcohol and espresso pods from the room. Keep it up lads.

Holy crap, I actually stayed at that hotel the last time I was in Tokyo. The basic room, not the big baller suite. I can confirm that even the basic rooms there are amazing.

Man, I've got such a thing for tall fancy apartment/hotel rooms, I can't stop watching videos about them, I just love city views so much, gosh I wanna live in a tall skyscraper even if the room isn't fancy. It just makes me feel some time of euphoria and inner peace merely living vicariously in them. Can't imagine how I'd feel actually being in one

Love the view. Glad when you guys do videos together.

This is not a Wacky Weekend, it's a date. 🤣🤣🤣 You're spoiling Connor.

I agree with Connor, you guys should review luxury hotels. The typical calm and collected luxury stuff reviews are getting boring, but two blokes who goof around and don't know what they are doing is much more entertaining to be fair.

That's so nice to see Connor and Chris have THAT COOL EXPENSIVE EXPERIENCE !

I always enjoy reading the one star reviews for places like this on trip advisor. Gives you another dimension.😀

Connor was more impressed here than he was at Chris' new studio setup lol

I loved Connors bit on the table: “The best tables in Japan, crafted by the guy who cares the most about wood”. The title is spot on and I would actually watch that video. All to say please do an interview with a Japanese master carpenter, or do more reviews on luxury hotel rooms, I enjoy anything with you two dickheads in it.

Man i love how you guys are travelling here and there its just amazing

Absolutely loved this video! U 2 are a gem

Chris: "I should have bring someone nice like joey or natsuki" Ryotaro: "Am i a joke to you?"

The Tokyo Andaz is a truly amazing hotel. I stayed there a little over 4 years ago when my husband and I had two free Hyatt nights with our Hyatt card. I think our room was probably about $700-$800/night US. We did have that same bath tub in our room, though! Our view was on the Mt Fuji side. I remember my ears popping when we took the elevator up to the lobby.

You guys joked about the table but I've seen enough woodworking UKposts channels to know that is a $10,000 table.

I have to say the lighting incredible at the end. You can see Connors green eyes it's so cool. Beautiful eyes

Gotta say it, seeing Connor walk around this expensive hotel room...with a glass of red wine in his hands...made my anxiety levels SPIKE

Honestly I could watch Chris, Natsuki, and the trash taste guys do anything and it would be entertaining.

YES THIS IS RELLY FUN TO WATCH!!!

Just that 12 min mark transition, I’m in love!

Every wacky weekend is just a competition between them of who can be the most British. Connor gets excited about a coffee machine and Chris just sasses him the whole time.

Oh man, I've stayed at that Andaz before, and it really is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. Sky suite or not, even their regular rooms are amazing. For a regular room, everything in the room is complimentary (minus alcohol) and is the same stock as seen in the suite. They even have a complimentary spa treatment that you have to reserve first thing in the morning. And during happy hours, they have complimentary h'orderves and sake in the lobby lounge while a pianist plays for two hours straight. Really the space of the room plus the amenities makes it worth while to stay in. The only issue some people have is the location, as it's a little farther to more popular areas of Tokyo.

I've recently come across your channel..and I proper love the wacky weekends with Cdawg. Makes me laugh every time. Keep up the awesome content

Yes this is very fun to watch please do more

Connor's dancing never fails to make me laugh.

I absolutely love this duo

You guys and this series are great. I live in Yokosuka and my 9 yo and I watch your videos constantly.

I've never seen Connor so completely drop the irony in one of these. That's how you know he's genuinely impressed.

Having worked for a few of these high end hotels… My one fear the whole time: “PLEASE SALVAGE THE FREE ALCOHOL & CONDIMENTS, THEY GET DISPOSED OF IF THEY’RE NOT USED” When Connor loots the free stuff: (GREAT SENSE OF RELIEF) “YES !!”

"Let me have this." The genuine NEED in Connor's voice was kind of heart melting.

This might be my favourite channel. I love british youtubers, more relatable as an australian than american content creators.

“Is this fun to watch!? Two, like, dickheads just having a nice time!?” Yes Chris, yes it is.

The Welsh are impressed by simple things like indoor plumbing and coffee machines.

So much fun to watch omg drink, food and a view wow

Loved the content 👌

"A hotel room that might just have the best view of the entire city" *Includes Connor dancing in the shot* Wow, Chris is such a nice guy

Connor: Takes Chris to the worst rated hotel in Nagoro. Chris: Takes Connor to a $12,000 per night hotel with views of the Tokyo tower, and only forced him to eat noodles to enter. This is how you know Chris is a good guy.

Connor before this: You can't buy friendship Connor after this: So I'm here with my best friend for life, Chris Broad.

As someone who has never seen your videos, yes it is fun to watch two dorks in s super expensive room because I feel like this would be my reaction as well.
