The Hotel People

Episode 3 (1x3)

Air date: Sep 06, 2022

There's a sense of optimism in the air at Northern Ireland's biggest family hotel group. Bold new ventures designed to claw back the £16 million losses suffered during the pandemic are beginning to pay off, but there's a long way to go. At the Slieve Donard, the most important wedding of the season puts head chef Hazel under pressure to deliver a sophisticated gourmet menu for the boss's son. The Europa Hotel turns 50 and is getting a £70,000 facelift and exhibition. It's a chance to celebrate the hotel's unique history and the staff who worked through some of the darkest days of the Troubles, when the hotel was bombed 33 times. Head chef Kyle creates a bespoke, whisky-infused menu for an ambitious dining event, and in the Culloden, weddings are a summer staple, but some rowdy guests are causing staff a major headache - and general manager Lisa makes a shock announcement.
