HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- The Fox network said it will renew British chef Gordon Ramsay's "Hotel Hell" reality television show for a second season.

"With 'Hotel Hell,' Gordon has proved once again that he's one of the most successful and appealing personalities on television," said Mike Darnell, Fox's president of alternative entertainment. "He delivered an amazing new show for us this summer that fans immediately embraced, and I can't wait for him to get started on an even more exciting season two."

The reality series documents Ramsay, an award-winning chef and hospitality expert, as he attempts to restore struggling hotels across the United States.

The six-episode first season has posted a 15 percent week-over-week growth in the 18- to 49-year-old demographic, The Hollywood Reporter reported Friday. "Hotel Hell" is the summer's No. 1 new series among adults 18-49, 18-34, 25-54, women 18-49 and 25-54, and all key male demos.

"The response to Hotel Hell has been truly extraordinary, and we're really excited to have the opportunity to turn around many more hotels in dire need of intervention," Ramsay said.

Season one is scheduled to conclude Monday.
