It has been requested that this article be rewritten.
Hotel Mario is a rather obscure game that was created by Philips Media for the CD-i. Philips Media had acquired the rights to produce a Mario game after initial plans to make a CD-ROM add-on for the Super Nintendo fell through.
Released in 1994 to little fanfare, the game did very poorly due to a lack of interest in the CD-i system. In this game, Bowser and his children have taken over the Mushroom Kingdom, where they've built seven hotels.
The general goal in each stage is to close all the doors on every floor, However, various enemies will interfere and reopen them at times. Elevators are needed to travel between floors. Each hotel has around three stages.
Princess Toadstool is held captive in each hotel until the moment of its destruction, at which point she is taken off to a different hotel. Each hotel is run by a different Koopaling (except for the last one which is run by Bowser) who must be fought by Mario in order to destroy the hotel.
The game also has a two player mode, allowing a second player to control Luigi. As with previous titles, Mario and Luigi take turns playing during a two-player game.

Credits
The credits sequence from the game has been recreated below. A "Hotel Mario" logo appears first in large red letters and is then followed by the main staff. After this, sections for art and audio appear, organized by a large yellow header. Finally, a gap separates the audio section from the remaining staff. In the game, each person's position (shown in bold here) is highlighted in yellow and his or her name is writen in red. All text is capitalized Which voice actor provided the voice for which characters did not appear in the game. The copyright notice below followed the credits and stayed on screen until it faded to black.

Trivia
- This game placed first on Screwattack.com for the "Top 10 Worst Mario Games."[1]
- Iggy dosen't have his own hotel, but appears as a boss in Bowser's.
- Most of the names of the Koopaling's Hotels are puns on real world hotels ("Woodoor-Hysteria," "Blitz Snarlton," etc.) Roy's HardBrick Hotel, however, is more likely named after the song "Heartbreak Hotel."
- Other cultural references include Mario's lines "We ain't afraid of no Koopas!" (a joke on the line "I ain't afraid of no ghost!" from the Ghostbusters theme song) and "Hey, you! Get off of my cloud!" from the Rolling Stones song, "Get Off of My Cloud."
