Plot
The series begins with the chance encounter of two strangers on a train. Even though Isabel Alarcón (Irene Azuela) comes from a wealthy family and Julio Olmedo (Erick Elías) doesn't even have a hat of his own, much less the money to buy a ticket, there is a lot of chemistry between them from the start.
They part as abruptly as they met, with no hope of seeing each other again. Julio continues on foot to the Gran Hotel, where he hopes to find his sister, Cristina (Ximena Herrera). Upon arrival, he learns that she has been fired from her job and has subsequently disappeared. Julio senses that something is wrong and, in order to investigate, he manages to get hired as a waiter at the establishment.
Meanwhile, to his surprise, Isabel arrives at the hotel and it is revealed that she is the daughter of Doña Teresa (Diana Bracho), the stern Alarcón matriarch and owner of the place.
Behind a dignified and prosperous façade, Doña Teresa's family hides abundant dark secrets. The upcoming episodes tell a sordid story of deceit, family intrigue, ghosts of the past, betrayal and even murder, all centered on the very respectable and elegant Gran Hotel. As the world seems to crumble around them, Julio and Isabel must overcome class differences, social prejudices and family loyalties, as well as their own past, while fighting for their great love.[7]
