“Hotel Impossible” host and hotel “fixer” Anthony Melchiorri is relentless when it comes to getting struggling hotels all over the world back on their feet and on the path to success.

Yet, it’s ultimately up to the hotel owners to implement and maintain his changes. Armed with a design team to help with some much-needed renovations, Melchiorri makes critical changes that may include getting a stubborn owner with no business sense to listen or getting a lazy staff to step it up. It won’t always be pretty and it will never be easy, but Melchiorri pushes these owners and GMs to get it right. For many, this is their last hope. [Hour-long episodes]
