You can stay in the double decker bus from the Spice World movie

Stop Right Now - because fans of the Spice Girls can achieve the ultimate Girl Power experience by booking a stay on the bus made famous in the 1997 movie by Victoria Beckham, Mel C and Co.

To coincide with the 25th anniversary of Spice Girls debut single Wannabe, nostalgia fans can book a stay on the famous Union Jack-painted Spice Bus through HolidayPirates.com (with some summer dates still available!).

The unique double decker travelled around the UK as part of the SpiceUp exhibition and was then located outside Wembley Park when the band had embarked on a reunion tour. Since then, it has been moved to the Isle of Wight where it is available for private bookings.

Though the exterior of the bus kept its original Union Jack paint from the film, the inside has been thoroughly refurbished with a team of designers to ‘spice up’ the decor.

It includes vintage 90s-inspired features, such as pink Union Jack cinema chairs, a "Girl Power" neon light installation, animal print and disco balls. There’s also a spacious seating area towards the back of the bus with an old school CD player.

The bus can comfortably sleep up to three people and features a TV, a kitchenette area and private toilet facilities located just outside of the vehicle.

The accommodation has an added bonus of being situated in a stunning location on the Island Harbour Marina, with onsite bar, restaurant and a small shop available nearby.

If a stay at the bus is what you want, what you really really want for the ultimate 90s throwback, HolidayPirates ( holidaypirates.com ) offers a one-night stay priced from only £78pp (self-catering).
