Hotel on Sea is a light-hearted observational comedy/documentary series about the ups and downs of life in The President Hotel in Blackpool back in 2004.
This 62 bedroom hotel is owned by the glamorous and hard nosed business woman Mrs Liz Walsh, and has a colourful staff team of staff from Steff the drag-artist duty manager, Sandra the loud and chatty receptionist; Alan the deadpan general manager, to Les the grumpy chef.

Dont blame Graham. Staff need to be shown that they are appreciated. He worked so hard for the party. Best of luck Graham!

Sure no one is indispensable, but good managers know how to hang onto good staff, especially those who go the distance for you. Losing Graham with no warning can only make for more work and headaches. By the book, insensitive and callous, but not too bright in people skills, this general manager.

No laundry, 60 departs between 5/of them? No wonder the rooms are filthy. I’ve been a housekeeper in hotels, all my life. That is disgraceful, expecting her staff to do all that, then moaning that it’s not up to scratch. A depart takes 30-40 minutes if it’s done right. Guests don’t leave until 10-11 o clock in the morning, so 4 hours to do them....disgraceful owner. 🤬

Did no one think to go to Graham's house and apologize, offer belated thanks, and ask him to come back? I think it's part of what's wrong with the hotel - that the staff are given the impression that they are not valued, are replaceable, like so many Lego blocks.

@kimgrattage2395 4 жыл бұрын

I'm not surprised Graham the chef left. No appreciation shown to him for the long hours he put in. The GM was incredulous to why he went, said he was a hard worker and appreciated, perhaps it might have been a good idea to tell him that instead of leaving all the mess for him to clean up after everyone had left. And who is the kid, only looked 12, what does he know about being a head chef, looks like he should be a school still? The Housekeeper could do with a few more brain cells, why go to the shop in the poring rain and not take any bags with you for the toilet rolls, or at least get them in the shop. No wonder the hotel is going down the pan, ( pardon the pun ) That lot couldn't run a church raffle, let alone manage an hotel? Btw, what happened to the other son of the boss, seemed like he disappeared too like his brother?

Stayed in this last year...was not impressed. Lift wasn't working and we were on floor 6 with 7 flights of stairs to climb, food was distinctly average and the dining room smelt of boiled cabbage, the bar, though open had no staff serving and the staff that were all foreign and seemed overworked. The so called cabaret consisted of one bloke singing over backing tracks and the advertised bingo was cancelled. The lady on reception though was a little gem and ended up rushing backwards and forwards between the two bars and the dining room...poor thing totally overworked. Non of the staff in this video were working there and i'm wondering is the place under new management, the place is now looking shabby and needs a makeover. The room we were in was acceptable though and was worth the (low end) price we paid for it.
