to see King Henry VIII and his first wife playing a hotel guest and a maid??? ;)

Ha! I made a note of Kathrine of Aragon appearing as a maid, and I did notice Jonathan Rhys Mayers, but did not make the connection, probably because I do not associate Jonathan only with his part in The Tudors. Nice catch though! :D

Good catch! Yes, that is funny when you think about it.

I hadn't realized till afterwards that one of the reasons Close could get Rhys-Myers to play this small role was that they had previously acted together in the recent TV remake of "The Lion in Winter". And Mia Wasikowska also worked for director Garcia on the TV series "In Treatment".
