A screened blog or competent advertising? Alas, now there are too many of the same type of series, where tired stamps wander from one scenario to another, and the plot is beaten with rods called clichés.
Something fresh and original has finally arrived! I admit, “Notes of the hotelier...” was very surprised, pleasantly surprised. Among the monotonous comedies of domestic production, this series is a rather interesting product.
The first thing that attracts attention is timekeeping. The series lasts no more than 10 minutes, but the writers manage to tell a lot in such a short time. In the end, the viewer observes an interesting and dynamic story.
The plot is simple. Without confusing stories, intrigues and other components of the current series. It’s simple – the young guy aims to bring the boutique hotel to the top of the best hotels, thus trying to prove to his father that he is already independent and he does not need the help of a rich relative. In parallel with this, the series tells us unusual and funny situations in which guests and hotel staff fall.
The cast. From an unexpected side, Ilya Korobko showed himself, playing the main role. Before this series, I had the pleasure of watching him in the acclaimed “Youth”, where he played a modest and timid young man. Here the actor tried on a completely different image. It was great to see Arthur Wach play a small but significant role. Among the beautiful ladies, Irina Temicheva and Ekaterina Zorina also pleased.
In addition, there are many cameos of celebrities in the series, which only adds “witnesses”.
Music. Including the series, the first thing you will hear is the voice of Sergey Shnurov. I am sure that the creators of the series perfectly understand that there are two types of people in Russia: those who like the soloist of the band Leningrad and those who are not enthusiastic about his work. But, I belong to the first type, so the choice of soundtrack only pleased me.
Interestingly, the hotel in which the action takes place really exists and is located in St. Petersburg, and the script is based on the best-selling book “Don’t disturb”. Notes of the hotelier" owner of the hotel "Helvetia. In this regard, I do not leave the feeling that the whole series is a quality advertising. That's right.
However, the series, characterized by incredible charisma, turned out to be easy and funny.
