This British drama show from the BBC was launched in January 2006. A second season of eight episodes began on 15 February 2007 and a third on 19 February 2008. The show takes us behind the the scenes of a luxurious five-star London hotel, where manager Rebecca Mitchell leads a team whose job is to give a superlative service to guests who are often less than five star. We see a series of dramas centering on the problems of the rich and the famous, with the hotel's staff always on hand to help - and keen to make a little extra money. The eight episodes of the first series were based on the book Hotel Babylon by Imogen Edwards-Jones and Anonymous - the unknown joint author was billed as the manager of one of London's leading five-star hotels.… Expand

Critic Reviews

Rob Owen

Season 1 Review: A high-gloss series with production values just as significant as what we see on American TV, it's worth checking into Hotel Babylon if you're seeking a respite from reality--TV shows or otherwise. Read full review

Robert Lloyd

Season 1 Review: Hotel Babylon is willfully bright and sexy--like the Parker's décor, it updates a '70s sensibility--but also has a nice eye for detail, good minor characters and well-flowing dialogue. Read full review

Maureen Ryan

Season 1 Review: Hotel Babylon supplies an attractive cast, a cheeky attitude and just enough depth to keep you coming back for more. Read full review

Robert Bianco

Season 1 Review: Even when the guests and plots falter, the regular cast keeps the hour in painless motion. Read full review

Barry Garron

Season 1 Review: British reviewers pegged Hotel Babylon correctly when they called it flashy, trashy, cheeky, frothy and "like a perfectly executed souffle." Read full review

Brian Lowry

Season 1 Review: Light and breezy, Hotel Babylon is a fairly simple conceit, built around the employees at a high-class London hotel and the guests they serve. Read full review

David Hinckley

Season 1 Review: At blending comedy and drama and presenting freshly drawn characters, though, Hotel Babylon has a lot to learn from the likes of "Desperate Housewives" and "Grey's Anatomy." As a hotel, and as a TV series, put it at less than three stars. Read full review
