Channel 4's Hotel Gb will reportedly not return for another series.
The reality show, which boasted an array of stars for its first run, is said to have been axed due to poor ratings.
Gordon Ramsay, Mary Portas, Gok Wan and Katie Piper all took part in last year's programme, where two celebrity teams staffed a hotel with unemployed trainees and battled it out to raise the most money for charity.
An insider told The Sun: "It was a good idea and bosses are glad they gave it a go.
"But it just didn't pull in enough viewers at the end of the day and it won't be coming back."
At the end of the show - which also starred Phil Spencer, Kim Woodburn and Kirstie Allsop - the 14 trainees who took part were all offered jobs by UK firms who visited the hotel undercover to seek out potential employees.

The Channel 4 series saw stars such as Gordon Ramsay, Mary Portas, Kirstie Allsopp and Gok Wan take over a hotel and staff it with unemployed people seeking an opportunity, while also raising money for the Prince's Trust and Springboard charities. Across the week, employers from a number of UK firms involved in the hotel and leisure industry visited undercover to test the workers' skills with a view to potential employment. During the live final, it was confirmed that all 14 trainees had been presented with jobs, while - as promised from the beginning - Ramsay and Portas also offered jobs to one person from each of their teams.
