Warren Trent (Melvyn Douglas) may own a hotel that's the epitome of luxury, but the accounting books tell a different story. The St. Gregory Hotel is pretty much flat broke. To prevent a corporate takeover, Trent pins his hopes on the ingenuity of hotel manager Peter McDermott (Rod Taylor). But a revolving door of zany guests -- including a drunk-driving Duke of Lambourne (Michael Rennie) and an intrepid thief named Keycase (Karl Malden) -- makes that a challenging task.

Uniformly strong performances, scripting and direction make for good pacing.

Hotel is colorful and crafty. It is entertaining without being at all profound. Now if only Greta Garbo had shown up, we might have had a grand reunion in New Orleans.

[It's] Hollywood formula but premium grade. Here, the play's the thing that keeps the viewer glued to his chair, and the shallowness of the characters encountered seems precisely analogous to the differences between dinner for two and drinks for 20.

a gratifying film to watch on a rainy day. If you don't have any high expectations you'll be pleasantly surprised. It has it's flaws. It's terribly old-fashioned but that's what I liked about it.

3/5

The Arthur Hailey novel was vastly improved upon by the film, which was a cut above average, but no more.

There are good performances from actors who know their trade and work at it, lively direction and a good enough story to keep audiences occupied.
