When Gordon Ramsay was just a “wee lad” - as the Scottish would say - he studied hotel
management.
That expertise, alongside his chef skills, surely came into play during Hotel Hell.
In the show, Gordon’s role is to assess and help many failing businesses, trying to
give them a new life.
Much like his cooking shows, he’s likely to get angry with incompetent people - and
that's always entertaining to watch!
That’s why we gathered 10 times that Gordon Ramsay got angry on Hotel Hell.
Juniper Hill Inn
The Juniper Hill Inn had a beautiful structure, but the management was squandering all away.
The service was a mess, with no communication going around.
Robert and co-owner Ari were more interested in giving people random tours than actually
working!
Gordon was getting increasingly frustrated and, eventually, decided to step in.
That was the last straw, and it left Gordon wondering if people at the Juniper had any
standards at all.
Also, he tried to convince Robert to work a little harder - or at least talk to his
staff!
In the traditional Ramsay style, but he wasn’t the only one in Gordon’s sight.
All in all, the whole ordeal looked like it left Ramsay exhausted.

Now, back to it…
Beachfront Inn & Inlet
Things weren’t going well at the relaunch of the Beachfront Inn.
Brian, the owner, had trouble stepping up to the plate.
Meanwhile, chef Ben seemed to be botching every order that was coming out of the kitchen.
That’s even worse considering that one of the customers was the mayor.
When Gordon pressed Brian for a response, he didn’t give Ramsay much hope.
In fact, Gordon was doubting the whole operation.
Ramsay then seemed to take charge, while Brian wasn't doing much.
Chef Ben said that the mayor’s plate had gone to his table.
But when Gordon went to check...
While Ben half-assedly tried to get the mayor’s food going, a caesar salad caught Gordon’s
attention.
He couldn't believe the response.
Ramsay called two waitresses to point out the obvious.
After shoving the plate back at Brian, Gordon wiped his hands clean.
Brian didn’t know what to do.
He was speechless and couldn’t even throw the food out!
Calumet Inn
The Calumet Inn was an interesting place.
It was owned by two sisters, who got it as a present from their father.
Rina thought running the business was too much and ran away for three months.
Vanda would usually wake up at 3 pm in the afternoon and complain about everything.
When Gordon arrived at the Calumet, he noticed that the entrance was more like a prison.
At the front desk, he met Mandy.
She was previously the general manager… and, according to the owners, might still
be?
The staff was absolutely overworked.
After a horrible lunch, Gordon gathered everyone for a quick talk.
The chef was completely broken down.
They didn’t seem to get the message at first, though.
They still tried to pin all of the blame on the chef.
They tried to make it all about themselves, and Gordon wasn’t having any of it.
Meanwhile, the waitress summed it up the best...
Anglers Lodge
During the renovation of the Anglers Lodge, Gordon prepared a delicious menu that was
well-suited to the Idaho region.
With the restaurant packed with locals and also a food critic, expectations were high.
Things had to go smoothly in order for the Lodge to have a chance of making it.
Unfortunately, chef Gina didn’t seem to get the memo.
Chef Gina wanted to do all on her own, while her sous-chef stood idly.
Gordon grew more and more frustrated with the situation.
Well, that was a bad move: Gordon pulled her away, still trying to resolve the situation.
After tasting a bit of the salad that was heading to the critic, Gordon finally had
enough.
He ordered the sous-chef to take over and had Gina on dessert duty.
Too bad she didn’t!
Gina even struggled to scoop some ice-cream and couldn’t properly reheat
the dessert.
Vienna Inn
When Gordon was at the Vienna, things seemed awful.
Jonathan and Lisa, the couple running the hotel, were constantly fighting.
Sometimes, out loud!
After inspecting the kitchen, Gordon was amazed at what he found.
Everything was an absolute mess - and Jonathan didn’t even try to hide or make any excuses.
The staff was having an even worse time.
That drove Gordon up a wall.
Plus, the staff uniform?
They had to buy it with their own money!
Even after Gordon renovated the place and made a new menu, made special for them, they
seemed to still be struggling.
Lisa complained about every single small thing.
Jonathan got lost in the kitchen.
Gordon was livid.
He tried and tried to get Jonathon to focus, but it took some work.
Curtis House Inn
Family can be tough sometimes.
Running a business too.
So, it’s a wonder why some people think of combining the two together.
The current owners, however, were struggling.
Gordon was shocked from the moment he stepped his foot inside the Curtis House.
They stored everyone’s credit card info in a book.
To top things off, she said Gordon’s room was haunted.
When Ramsay went to eat his dinner, he wasn’t happy either.
Owner Chris also worked as a chef, but he didn't seem to care at all.
When Ramsay confronted Chris about how he ran the kitchen, he didn’t even respond.
The next day, things didn’t get much better.
Gordon scolded the two siblings for not communicating.
Like the dad he is...
Monticello Hotel
Monticello Hotel looked nice on the outside - but on the inside, it was in a state of
disarray.
When Gordon arrived, he was surprised by the location of his room.
It wasn’t in the main, beautiful building.
Rather, it was located in a Motel right next to it!
But things didn’t get better when he arrived at the real room.
The restaurant was also a mess.
Meanwhile, Phillip happily flaunted his collection of expensive cars at the front of the Hotel.
During a lunch service, Phillip suddenly started working.
Meanwhile, the staff exposed the truth and even got into an argument with Phillip.
Phillip was so far gone that Gordon confronted him, wanting answers.
But, unfortunately, he didn’t seem to get any.
Roosevelt Inn
The Roosevelt Inn was bizarre.
It was an old school that was converted into an Inn.
The owner, John, seemed sort of crazy.
John also had a penchant for laughing at his own misery.
John threw a monthly murder mystery dinner where he dressed up as Sherlock Holmes.
Meanwhile, his wife Tina was stuck in the kitchen for the whole evening.
But Gordon really got mad due to one reason.
Gordon laid out all the facts in front of John.
John, however, still was in denial and proceeded to run away again.
Lunch was equally a disaster.
Gordon doubted that the owner could even boil an egg.
Turns out, he was right.
Brick Hotel
Gordon was surprised with how run down the Hotel looked when he arrived.
It was also incredibly and almost unbelievably dusty.
The decoration was also throwing him for a loop.
Gordon’s usual test meal went horribly, too.
When he went into the kitchen, he wanted to meet the chef.
He also took the opportunity to finally address the complaints of the ex-employees.
Gordon found even more things to get mad about.
You could see Gordon’s rage mounting.
But the last straw was when Gordon spotted a huge amount of grease laying around.
Which was a huge fire hazard.
Lakeview Hotel
The Lakeview Hotel was another case of a Hotel with a beautiful view that was lacking in
just about everything else.
When Gordon arrived, things quickly went off the rails.
At the front desk, Gordon noticed all the dust gathering around.
Gordon seemed to be transfixed by the dust though.
When Ramsay spotted the ice cream parlor, he was shocked that they didn’t offer any
samples.
The whole place looked so messy and dirty that Gordon assumed that it was closed!
The fan sitting directly on top of the ice cream was also filthy.
When he went to his room, Gordon continued to be shocked.
The hotel was so tightly managed he couldn’t even control the temperature of the air conditioner.
Guess what happened when Ramsay took a look at the unit?
They only cleaned it twice a year!
Did you enjoy Gordon getting angry with hotel managers, for a change?
