The television drama Hotel aired on ABC from 1983 to 1988. The series was set in the elegant St. Gregory's Hotel in San Francisco and episodes were partly self-contained, dealing with the dramas of the guests, and partly concerned with ongoing storylines amongst the hotel staff.
The core cast was James Brolin, Connie Sellecca, Nathan Cook, and Shari Belafonte. In 1987, Sellecca was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her performance; Brolin had been nominated in 1984 and 1985.
Hotel was produced by Aaron Spelling Productions. Some scenes were filmed in San Francisco, California, USA. The pilot starred Bette Davis as the hotel owner Laura Trent, but Davis was too ill to continue when a series was commissioned. Davis' place as matriarch at the hotel was taken by Anne Baxter as Victoria Cabot. Baxter had previously played Davis' nemesis in the 1950 movie All About Eve.
This series was based on the novel of the same name by Arthur Hailey, which was also adapted into a 1967 movie.
