Guido gives the room tour
Guido props his phone on the dresser to show off the skyline. On his way to the window, he opens a soft-close drawer. By the third take, the whole video is about the hinges.

checks in.
“I know a guy at the front desk.”
Guido Gaguzzi is an Italian-American contractor who started a how-to show “for tax purposes.” Take him away for the weekend and he’ll have three questions before he gets to the room. Who did the tile? Where do they get their espresso? And can he meet the guy who makes the pasta?
We’re taking Guido on the road. Tell us the one thing you wish every guest noticed about your hotel. We’ll write a scene around it.
THE GROUP CHAT GETS IT.Made to be

passed around.
Everybody knows a Guido. His fans tag the uncle who gives the same advice, quote lines at Sunday dinner and jump into the comments to correct the recipe. By dessert, the clip’s made it around the family group chat.

Guido’s guide to doing absolutely nothing
Guido settles into a pool lounger to teach the art of relaxing. Lina orders lunch while he’s still explaining how to fold the towel. By the time room service arrives, she’s the only one who’s had a day off.
Guido knows the neighborhood
Over an espresso at the hotel restaurant, Guido offers to show the chef his favorite neighborhood spot. The chef knows the owner. The owner knows the chef. This is Guido’s first time in town.

HOSTING GUIDO
The stay. The content.
You host the stay.
Your hotel provides accommodation and any experiences we plan together. That could be dinner at the chef’s counter, a morning at the spa or a walk with someone who knows the neighborhood.
We make the comedy.
We write, shoot and edit original content for agreed organic posts. A stay might suit a short piece with Guido alone or a scripted scene with another character. Supporting Stories, tags and links can be part of the plan.
Before check-in
We agree on nights, rooms, experiences, cast and crew, plus the videos, channels, delivery and posting dates. We also settle how your hotel can repost or use the content. Paid advertising use is scoped separately.
