Langtry Manor Hotel

The Hotel Inspector – Season 2

Ruth Watson visits Langtry Manor Hotel in Bournemouth, which was built in 1877 for King Edward VII in honour of his mistress Lillie Langtry, and later turned into a hotel. Ruth immediately cites the building's painted brickwork as off-putting, while outdated decor and imprudent budgeting add to her horror, as she points out why the business is squandering potential profits.
