The Bill Dana Show

The plot follows the daily lifestyle of Latin American José Jiménez, as a bellhop in a New York City hotel.His biggest problems were his fellow bellhop Eddie (Gary Crosby), who was constantly trying to get José to wise up; the less-than-understanding hotel manager Mr. Phillips (Jonathan Harris, who would soon play Dr. Smith on Lost in Space) and the bumbling hotel detective Byron Glick (Don Adams, in a predecessor to the character he would play on Get Smart).It was the last time Dana played José Jiménez on network television, though he still occasionally performed the role on records and on stage.The Disney Channel series The Suite Life of Zack and Cody also featured a haughty hotel manager and a more comical Hispanic bellman.The series, sponsored by Procter & Gamble, premiered on September 22, 1963 and ran for a season-and-a-half, before its run ended on January 17, 1965 (the following week, it was replaced by Branded).
