In reply to Paul Profitt. It's actually a pretty interesting show. He's not an interior design expert, but he brings up some fantastic points. :)

Hi Heather-Gordon Ramsey giving advice on Hotel decor. When did he become an expert in Interior Designing. And no, I have never seen the show. But the whole concept seems weird.

My family operates an RV Park in the San Antonio Texas area. Gordon gives me a great idea. I believe our industry could benefit from his platform of hell to heaven makeovers. Maybe I’ll start it!

Heather – wow, us Brits really excelled with that one! Water unsafe to drink? Where the hell did it come from – the sewer?
It sounds like the pit where they found Saddam Hussein.

@Scott – thanks for the tip. I haven’t seen Hotel Impossible, but I will definitely check it out! I’d love to see how they handled the “online reputation” part of the equation. Although I would miss Gordon’s swearing.. ;)

@Craig, I’m laughing over here, because one of the worst hotel experiences ever was in the UK – we literally checked in and checked out within 10 minutes. I still remember the wires hanging from the ceiling, the stained walls and the big sign saying, “Water is not safe to drink.”

And you’re exactly right about what Gordon Ramsay tells the hotel owners. That’s one of the reasons that I love his show. ;)

Heather I’m like you and a big fan of Gordon Ramsey. I think his show Kitchen Nightmare often gives insight in how a restaurant should brand itself. One show that preceded Hotel Hell is Hotel Impossible on the Travel Channel featuring Anthony Melchiorri. One of the thing I like with that show is not only does he focus on the hotels, but their online reputations. Many times the establishment not only gets refurbished, but their given all new websites. If you haven’t seen it, I would check it out.

Ha ha ha…Hotel Hell? You Americans don’t know the meaning of the phrase! The worst motels I’ve stayed in in the US are better than most of our ‘standard’ hotels.

I don’t think Ramsay’s made a British version of Hotel Hell (I may be wrong though)…he’d have his work cut out, I can tell you.

What does he say to the hotel owners? Let me guess: “I f**king slept in that bed. Oh my God, I could have f**king died last night.”
