Given all that has transpired in Hotel Portofino Season 3, I’m sure none of us thought the third season finale would end happily. But this finale, entitled “Masquerades,” was a tragic punch to the gut all the same.

Somewhere south of the Bowery, near where the corner of Starbucks and Starbucks will one day stand, Wall Street crashes; 4,000 miles away, the reverberations hit Hotel Portofino like a tsunami.
In a twist for a series set in the beautiful Italian seacoast, Hotel Portofino's “Realizations” kicks off in New York, as the stock market crash of 1929 lurks on the horizon.
