Murphys Historic Hotel's Hotel Hell Premiere Party Was Heavenly

Murphys, CA...Last night was the premier party for Gordon Ramsay's “Hotel Hell” episode featuring the Murphys Historic Hotel. It was a great night. Hundreds of locals packed the place to see who made the final cut during editing and onto the big screen. The owners of the Murphys Hotels agreed to do the show to promote and draw attention to the area. In reality the hotel's numbers had been steadily climbing so much of the premise of rescuing the hotel from doom was more about setting the hook for the show. The show needs problems to solve as the premise for the show. That said, the owners have implemented many of the improvements from the show and time in the limelight has elevated their game...

In our humble opinion owners, staff and local extra's did a great job. They showcased the area as a fun, lively and desirable place to visit. Also deserving Kudos is The Calaveas Visitor's & Film Bureau's Lisa Boulton who promoted and was instrumental in securing the show for our area.

Editor's Note...We disabled comments as they were not productive. Yes everyone is entitled to their opinion but we know that there was discussion even before taping that initially the business had to be portrayed as barely breathing to set the premise of being "rescued".

This decision was made to go ahead under the premise that there is no such thing as bad publicity and the enhanced and final product was worth the effort.

The Murphys Hotel is one of the anchor businesses in Murphys and is vital to it's success. The owners we believe should be commended for opening up their business and lives to scrutiny by millions. Their business and they are much stronger as a result.

Making comments about the business based on what you observed on the show is short sighted.

You have to remember that reality shows are far from reality. Thank You Murphys Hotels for the increased visibility for Calaveras County.
