Situated at the Lake Tahoe, on the border of Nevada and California, ‘El Royal’ is a very special hotel. The guests can choose a room in their own US state. It is also the place where seven strangers, each with their own dark secret, accidentally meet. Although it seems like a great vacation spot, ‘El Royal’ soon becomes the crime scene where a robbery, a mayhem and a hostage situation take place. What is even more disturbing, is that the hotel manager (Jon Hamm) has found a way to spy on the guests. “This is not a place for a priest, Father. You shouldn’t be here,” the bellhop (Lewis Pullman) warns the priest (Jeff Bridges). However, this is not a problem for Bridge’s character, who confesses “I’m not really a priest.”
