I can’t believe it! My good friends John and Tina Imhof are hosting that notoriously brash British chef Gordon Ramsay’s television show, “Hotel Hell”. That’s right. Ramsay is bringing his show to the historic Cambridge Hotel in
Cambridge, Washington County, later this month to make over the inn.
If you hurry, you can get in on it!
Shooting at the Cambridge Hotel is scheduled for Jan. 25 to 28.
To be considered for a stay in the hotel or for a dining reservation during filming, email cambridgehotelshow@gmail.com.
Hotel guests will stay for free, but diners will be responsible for all
food and drink charges, a production representative tells me.
You know this show – it’s even been spoofed in a car ad this holiday season – wherein Ramsay storms into the selected restaurant and bullies the owners into becoming better restaurateurs. Or, as the show’s official resume puts it: In “Hotel Hell” Ramsay will “help fix struggling, privately owned
hotels, inns and bed-and-breakfasts in destination towns across the
U.S.”
Naturally, I’m concerned for my friends…
“I fully expect Gordon Ramsay and his crew will look at me and say,
‘What were you thinking that you thought you could run a hotel and
restaurant with no experience?'” hotel owner John Imhof, a Cambridge
attorney, said.
Well, I guess we’ll see if that old adage “any publicity is good publicity” holds true. Good luck gang!
