Rob Rinder said: “I can’t wait to explore some of the world’s most extraordinary hotels and go beyond the lobby to meet the fascinating communities of people who run them in order to learn what it is that make them such once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Luckily, I’ll have Monica by my side to keep me in check.”

Monica Galetti added: “I’m very excited to have a new partner in crime to discover eight awe-inspiring locations. I’m looking forward to seeing Rob get stuck in when we roll up our sleeves to work alongside the dedicated hotel staff.”

We can’t wait to share eight glorious new episodes with audiences soon.”
