More information than you could angrily shake a branch at, these sites have inspected Fawlty Towers for facts, figures, scripts and quotes.

Unofficial Guide to Fawlty Towers
All you would ever want to know, with episode guides, articles, links, quizzes and even a floor plan of the hotel and a view from the hotel bedroom.

FawltySite.Net
This site is very good for memorabilia and there's a Fawlty Towers jigsaw puzzle (if you really have time on your hands) plus an A-Z of all things Fawlty.

Fawlty (1975-79)
Quite a small site but it contains a complete script of A Touch of Class, so you can give a comprehensive recital if you fancy...

Fawlty Towers Revisited
This US website covers a recent documentary and includes host of odd info. There's an interview with the author of 'Fawlty Towers : A Worshipper's companion', who thinks the sitcom contains occult meaning. Sample question - "How would Nietzsche describe/summarize Fawlty Towers?"

Fawlty Towers Multimedia Page
This is a German site about Fawlty Towers. It's got lots of quotes, sound samples and 'interesting' translation – but don't mention the war...

Where is Basil?
Incredibly someone actually thought this up. A travelling donkey from Canada called Basil visits your house and delivers another Basil – in the shape of the Fawlty Towers DVD collection. The donkey is fictional but the DVD collection does seem to be travelling...

Fancy hiring a Fawlty Towers impersonator? There's quite a few out there, and some of them even look like the character supposed to be.

This site contains anecdotes about real hotels from the Fawlty point of view, so mad guests and bureaucrats are targeted. It looks like it's a thinly-veiled plug for the Corisande Manor Hotel in Newquay but it's a strange way to do it...

Hotel Gleneagles
We're not advertising but if you wanted to stay in the place that inspired Fawlty Towers you can. It's now been refurbished, unlike when the Pythons stayed there in 1971. The owner at the time (Donald Sinclair) berated Terry Gilliam on eating his steak 'like an American' and mistook Eric Idle's bag for a bomb.

Strangely enough there are hotels who name themselves after the worst hotel ever known, however none of them seem emulate the show. The question is, why call yourself Fawlty if you're not prepared to be unpleasant, unhygienic and unwelcoming. Fakers.

So stay in:
