The Hotel Inspector (2005)

Season 9: Episode 10

Alex Polizzi returns to the African Queen, an eight-bedroom floating hotel on the River Thames, three years after she first tried to help owners Andy and Bonny Cowley revive its fortunes. The couple had previously run a successful hotel on the Isle of Wight, but their new venture was struggling to attract guests - a problem Alex attributed to some uninspiring marketing and the boat's far-from-shipshape appearance. A makeover and grand relaunch party seemed to mark a turning point in its fortunes, and Alex now finds out if Andy and Bonny have managed to keep up the good work.
