Hotel Babylon is my favourite TV-series these days. The plot, the cast, the filming... I love everything about Hotel Babylon.

This is a high quality series that I will recommend to anyone looking for entertainment and exitement, and i sneek peek into the world of luxury hotels.

Five stars!

Hotel Babylon isn't the best written show on television. What makes it great is its style and presentation: there's something about the gorgeous sets, photogenic cast and interesting camerawork that made me feel at home from the first episode to the last. Okay, so it may be a long way from the real hotel business, (or the real world generally for that matter,) and the stories may rely more on catchy visuals than serious plots, but Hotel Babylon wraps the viewer in a cosy stylish cocoon, and I can quite happily live with that. Isn't that what a good hotel does?

I have watched all the episodes of HB and have loved them all. Some programmes get boring after a while but HB is just so entertaining. I bought series 1 on DVD and now just waiting for series 2 to come out, also I can't wait to see series 3.

Hugely entertaining, another of those unique offerings like Cutting It that aren't easy to categorise and some people will inevitably call sleazy or superficial - yet really it's neither because the lowdown is said to be based on truth, ditto in the equally rivetting book of the same title that this TV series is based on. As an enthusiast for Arnold Bennett's fine old books about hotels, Imperial Palace and Grand Babylon Hotel, I was immediately tempted to watch this TV series if only out of curiosity, and am delighted I did. Rather different to Bennett but equally fascinating! Intensely more-ish so thank goodness there is another series to come next year. Highly recommended.

I watched the entire series from its orriginal air and loved it. Personally, i think the idea wasso frsh, yes there have been so many hotel comedys/dramas/dramedeys, etc, but only set in lower class hotels. To see the scandals, many of which based on truth, in a 5* london hotel. the camera is brilliant, plus the links of accelerated shots of london is brilliant. the hotel always looks immaculate and the set is so convincing, if only it were real!!
