      It's pretty common to get a degree in Hotel/restaurant management when you are learning from great chefs on the job about how to actually cook. It's the better way to do it if you want to be chef/owner. School can teach you the business aspect, but culinary school won't teach you much as far as how an actual fast paced kitchen works. If anything it kind of ruins people. So many times young cooks come in out of culinary school and you have to completely change their mindset, they think they should do it the way that they learned, one dish at a time. In reality it is teamwork, timing, multitasking, lots of great dishes coming out at the same time and at the right time. Most culinary schools don't teach how to do that little dance.

    The whole series was worth it for the Hotel Chester. It was just a story of good people dealing with tragedy and hardship with just no way out. We can rag on the show for a lot, but in this singular episode I think it is fair to say they really did help save these folks. I am so happy for them and wish them all the best.

      The problem with this show and kitchen nightmares is that the guests appearing didn’t really want to be helped in the end. Almost all of them would revert right back to their lazy and terrible business managing ways as soon as Gordon left the door. It’s a huge reason why he actually gave up on the shows

    I worked in a hotel earlier this year. When people make the beds for yhe new guest, they will first strip off the sheets and outside pillowcases from the previous guests' use. Then they put on new sheets and new outer pillowcases on the old stuff. The mattress pad, comforter, and inner pillowcases on the bed are rarely replaced. One of the Heads of House (middle management housekeepers basically) told me when I worked there that she was in a meeting where the manager had complained that I took too long, and my Head explained on my behalf that the only reason it took me so long to make the beds was because I was regularly going to the supply closet at the end if the floor or down to linens to replace the heavily stained comforters and mattress pads. No one else had apparently been doing that even though it was supposed to be a part of the job. Next time you book a room for any hotel, I advise to request that the bed or beds get new pillows and comforter. You can say it's because of an allergy if you feel the need to.

      Please don’t say it’s an allergy unless it actually is. It ruins it for people who genuinely have allergies. People stop believing your allergy is real because 99% of the people claim it’s an allergy and don’t mean it.

    • @diskeyes
      @diskeyes Год назад +99

      ⁠@@DeathnoteBBomg I’ve worked at hotels if you say “I have an allergy” no one is saying “PROVE IT” you just accommodate them. Are we supposed to allergy test each customer? No. If someone is anxious over getting sick because they don’t replace anything (they don’t) and they don’t want to get nervous, that’s a fantastic excuse. Never in my 27 year old life have I ever questioned anyone who says they’re allergic. Stop making up shit to feel marginalized.

    About the blue light scenes, most likely a lot of that fluorescence is actually cleaner, whitening agents in laundry detergent flouresce under black light. Also blood doesn't flouresce unless you spray luminol onto it, so it's unlikely any of it is blood unless he's spritzing luminol, which I didn't see.

One problem though. You know what else can be revealed by the same test? Soda. Dried up soda also shows up and it's not uncommon for cans to come out of the factory with traces of soda on the outside.

      I don't know why so many people think that managing a hotel is easy. I went to a hospitality/tourism high school and it was hard! There is so much nuance in the way of running hotels and even more in tourism in general. We had to go through a certain amount of hours working in a hotel as maids, servers and receptionists and none of it is easy to do, let alone to manage. I hated it, and instead of continuing my education in hospitality, I now have a masters in publishing and information science, because I knew that I would be bad at whatever work I would do in a hotel lol

Adding onto that, I took one of these courses and people actually in the industry value experience far more than schooling when you look to work in these places.

    I worked during the off season for a 5 star motel in the Colorado Mountains one winter. It was small and we had no restaurant. Even when there weren't guests there was still daily cleaning to be done, maintenance to be done, and every week a deep cleaning was done in every space and room. Then when we did have any guests a lot had to be done, even with just one room being rented out. These people trusted me access to their private space to do daily cleaning and turn overs without messing with their things. This lady hired me for the job and I'm amazed she trusted me to do it for her. I couldn't imagine the amount of trust I'd have to muster up just to have employees when managing a large hotel or motel and the coordinating that would need to be done.

    I am by no means a professional(only basics of food and beverage management and was servsafe certified which doesn’t say much in the restaurant business anymore) but most things Gordon is seeking in the hotels are the basics that you are to keep an eye on in your dining rooms along with many a few other things that can be just passed off as common knowledge. Like you said these things can easily go unnoticed to the people who are in there often when there isn’t enough hands on deck or enough properly trained staff. It’s a very vague line it seems so yes he does help but definitely more in the way a friend who has own a plant for more then six months can help. They’ll be able to tell you basic care and needs of that plant but may not be able to tell you the knowledge of an person who has actually went to school for botany/herbalism. As you can tell my passion for food turned into plants, that’s why I haven’t care to renew my certification because I’m focused on learning plants so I can sell them as my job instead of working food again.

    I actually went to one of the hotels featured on here. I'm not sure if it was before or after the fixing. I think before. It was in San Diego. Had all this fancy modern stuff that Gordan said made it look like a race car?? And a lot of use of greys and red. They had a dog ,which I remember playing with in the upstairs area with a little Jake the dog toy. And I remember Gordan called him ugly in the episode. I only skimmed the episode . The hotel from what I remember was just ok. We slept on air beds because they didn't have enough beds in a room for me and my sibling. Just for my parents. Don't remember having an issue w that though. What I do remember is that there was some bar outside . Or club . And they were loud..LOUD loud. And no matter what we did we couldn't quiet the noise. I dont think that's the hotels fault tho . Overall it was an OK stay but I was a kid and don't remember a lot

    Ok so I used to live in Southbridge, MA where the Vienna was located, and I lived there at the time of filming. First of all, a little background on Southbridge: it’s an old mill town, very blue collar that’s had a couple of decades worth of bad luck and bad publicity, but it’s still a sweet little town with strong community. It just so happens to be the brunt of a lot of local jokes. It’s also right next to a very touristy, quaint historic “New Englandy” town called Sturbridge. Think Pawnee vs Eagleton in Parks and Rec. Now, I remember watching the episode and cracking up laughing because in order to make Southbridge look good they filmed the B roll in Sturbridge. I’ve spoken to several folks that worked at the Vienna and they said that the Swingers rumors were absolutely true lol. It seems like they exaggerated some things for TV, but everything that happened was more or less true. The owners also had a French bistro in town where they were notorious for refusing to give you butter to go on your bread because they found it insulting that you would need it? Or something equally as dumb. Regardless, they were at least as difficult if not more so than they were portrayed on TV. I think I heard there were some rumors that the reason the Vienna burned down was for insurance reasons, and possibly to do with funding the other restaurant. I have no way of verifying that last part, although it wouldn’t shock me.

    @saskialolita 2 года назад +7

    I feel like it’s kind of a skewed sample to begin with seeing as a prerequisite to even appearing on the show would presumably be that your hotel is already struggling… So similar to kitchen nightmares certain establishments might be too far gone to really recover or you might be dealing with stubborn proprietors who find themselves unable to commit to the changes and revert back to their old ways, etc etc etc, so without careful analysis it wouldn’t rly be fair to say that each failure carried the same weight or should count against the show in the same way… if that makes sense…
    So while I def get wanting to grade Gordon/the show on their efficacy/success rate, and while 45% would normally be considered a failing grade, in this instance I think it’s a lil more understandable…. But thas jus imo 🤷‍♀️
    ** Ps- I haven’t made it thru the vid so I’m not even saying u didn’t take any of this into consideration, and I see already that you mentioned at least one of the closures was due to covid and another reverted back to their old ways, so perhaps my comment is totally unnecessary lol **

    Hi! So, my childhood home is less than 5 minutes away from the Brick Hotel and while it IS still open, it's been under new management for many years. The original owner is still associated, but I think at this point she's nothing more than a landlord. The Brick Hotel is one of the best places to wine and dine in the area and you usually can only get in with a reservation. One of my good friends has worked there on and off for 3 years or so and she loves. The hotel aspect of it is sort of unknown because most of the people who go there are locals and right across the street there's another historic hotel where people would rather stay. I remember walking to high school and seeing Gordon's crew hanging out in front of the building and thinking it was the coolest thing ever. That's all!
