Brian and Mika Kleinschmidt Face Off Against Each Other in HGTV's New Competition Series
The 100 Day Dream Home hosts are taking their creative talents to the beaches of North Carolina — and this time they're competing against each other. Find out who else is joining the fun.
Married real estate developers Brian and Mika Kleinschmidt, hosts of HGTV’s 100 Day Dream Home, know what it feels like to win. They've been crowned champions in two of HGTV's most celebrated (*ahem* high stakes) competition shows: Rock the Block and Barbie Dreamhouse Challenge. Now, these two will embark on their most heated matchup yet when they compete against each other in 100 Day Hotel Challenge (wt).
Inspired by a recent boutique hotel renovation in Florida they completed together, Brian and Mika will now assemble teams of HGTV experts to help them fully transform two adjacent, dated beachfront hotels in stunning Salter Path, North Carolina — and in only 100 days or less. The six-episode series is slated to premiere in Summer 2024.
“HGTV has seen tremendous ratings success with the competition format, so this hotel twist will be an appealing new take among our key demos,” says Loren Ruch, Head of Content, HGTV. “Brian and Mika have a magnetic energy and are smart, tough, no-holds-barred competitors. Their determination to one-up each other plus support from an army of HGTV experts will equal an epic renovation showdown.”
What is 100 Day Hotel Challenge?
During the seaside battle, Brian and Mika will manage a tight three-month timeline, a budget of $225,000 each and their own team of HGTV all-stars to turn the tired 1950s properties into upscale waterside retreats ready for peak summer vacation season. The spouse who increases their hotel’s overall value and average price per night will claim the victory, including bragging rights and a $50,000 donation to their chosen charity.
Who Else Will Compete in 100 Day Hotel Challenge?
Brian’s team will include Bryan and Sarah Baeumler (Battle on the Beach), Michel Smith Boyd (Luxe for Less), Mike and Denese Butler (Fix My Frankenhouse), Carmeon Hamilton (Reno My Rental), Cristy Lee (Battle on the Mountain) and Poonam Moore (Rico to the Rescue), while Mika will be backed by Galey Alix (Home in a Heartbeat), Jonathan Knight and Kristina Crestin (Farmhouse Fixer), Lauren Makk (Design Star: Next Gen), Scott McGillivray (Vacation House Rules), Grace Mitchell (One of a Kind), Kim Myles (Battle on the Mountain) and Kim Wolfe (Why the Heck Did I Buy This House?).
