TRAVEL CHANNEL GREENLIGHTS ADDITIONAL EPISODES OF ATLAS MEDIA’S “HOTEL IMPOSSIBLE.”

CHEVY CHASE, MD (April 4, 2012) – Travel Channel today announced plans to order five additional episodes of “Hotel Impossible” a week prior to its scheduled debut. The five additional episodes will bring the first season to a total of 13 one-hour episodes.

“Hotel Impossible,” set to launch Monday, April 9 at 10:00 p.m., ET/PT, introduces Anthony Melchiorri as the “hotel fixer.” Each episode features a property that hasn’t lived up to its potential. Melchiorri secretly scouts the destination and identifies its biggest problems. After coming up with a plan of attack and prescribing changes that need to be made, Melchiorri revamps and energizes the staff and transforms the hotel. Whether he is demonstrating the proper way to pour a glass of wine or gutting and redecorating a lobby, Melchiorri knows how to turn an underperforming enterprise into a bustling tourist destination. Some of the hotels that will benefit from Melchiorri’s magic touch include Fiddler’s Inn in Nashville, TN and Southern Oaks Inn in Branson, MO.
