Story[]

Esteban Ramirez is an employee at the Tipton Hotel in Boston, his first appearance was in the episode Hotel Hangout. In all the episodes, he speaks in a strong Spanish accent, so very few people can understand him.In many episodes, he speaks about his beloved pet chicken, Dudley, who he considers his best friend. In the episode Commercial Breaks, Dudley makes his first appearance. This is not his only appearance, as he returns in an episode of the Suite Life on Deck, during Esteban's bachelor party.

In many episodes, for example, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Hotel & To Catch a Thief, he is shown to be a great friend of Zack & Cody; not only playing with them, but also helping them in difficult situations. As well as the boys, who he has nicknamed "Little blonde peoples", Maddie is another friend of Esteban. This is shown in Esteban's excitement and happiness when Maddie returns in Team Tipton and when Maddie owes London $250, Esteban is the first to realize the way Maddie was acting towards London and poses the idea of raising funds to help Maddie pay London back. He is often a helper or an assistant of London, but most likely because her father is the Tipton's owner. London often demands Esteban to bring her all of her luggage. In Pilot Your Own Life, London dresses Esteban up in female clothes and he puts up a little argument.

Esteban has been working at the Boston Tipton for a very long time, though being a bellboy was certainly not his dream. In Pilot Your Own Life, Esteban informed Cody that his dream was always to be a famous baseball player. Unfortunately, Esteban was not a very good baseball player and was forced to give this wish up. After this, in the same episode, Esteban says to Cody that, since baseball is, as to say, out of his league, he wants to be the new hotel manager after Moseby leaves his job. Things look up for Esteban because we learn in The Ghost of Suite 613 that Moseby was once also a bellboy, leading us to believe that Esteban may someday follow in his shoes. During the Suite Life On Deck, we learn that Esteban's no longer a bellhop and has since been promoted to assistant night manager at the Tipton Hotel in Boston.

Esteban has a rather large family, and he has revealed many of the members of it to his friends. In To Catch a Thief, Esteban told his fellow employees, (along with Zack and Cody) about his parents Gladys & Diego Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramírez. His father was in World War II and gave to Esteban a small pin to remember him by, from said war. It is possible his father is deceased because he thinks of Mr. Moseby as a father figure, saying he was much like his father "who was strict, ruthless and mean," as he stated, then went on to say he misses his father very much and started sobbing in the corner of the room. In A Tale of Two Houses, his maternal grandparents return to the throne, Fred and Candy. In another episode, when Moseby was sick, and Esteban used a cure on Moseby taught to him by his maternal grandmother, Granny Estebina. In A Tale of Two Houses, Esteban speaks to one of his friends about his grandparents, who have returned to the throne in his country. This is where we learn one of his grandparents is named Geraldo Juan Carlos Diego Pepe Bombaro Lupe Aborto Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de Rosa Ramírez, also known as simply Geraldo.

Also in Loosely Ballroom, Esteban enter in a Dance Contest to help for his younger sister's quinceañera (a girl's 15th-birthday). This is the first mention of Esteban's sibling.

To sum his family up, Esteban is the son of Gladys and Diego Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramírez, they have a daughter, (Esteban's sister) 17-year-old Estecarlotta, and a brother who has a farm in Central America. Gladys is the daughter of Fred & Candy, and Diego is the son of Granny Estebina & Geraldo Juan Carlos Diego Pepe Bombaro Lupe Abarto Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de Rosa Ramírez.

In the Suite Life on Deck's episode "Mother of the Groom", Esteban's engaged to get married to a woman named Francesca Consuela Maria Gonzalez de Masso Garcia Lucia Greenberg Ramon Gomez. It was never mentioned how they met, but it was shown that Gladys, (Esteban's mother, portrayed by Charo) initially disapproved of her son marrying Francesca, even going so far as to claim that she'd prefer her son marrying a donkey. But after rediscovering her love of dancing and music (particularly guitar playing), she learned to accept their union, welcoming Francesca as her new daughter-in-law. Gladys even played a special song for the couple at their wedding.

The country that Esteban was originally from was left a mystery for a large part of the series (the only clue being that he was originally from a Spanish-speaking country) -- but in "I Want My Mummy," it's indirectly revealed that Esteban's originally from Peru, because Esteban claims that the titular mummy is from his home country, and the mummy itself is stated to be from Peru (a country in South America).

In It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Hotel, when Moseby sees him, the twins, and a damaged priceless painting, Esteban told to Moseby that back in his country, if someone committed a crime, they were bound to 4 goats, which would pull their arms and legs. This is a reference of an Peruvian Hero, Tupac Amaru.

In many episodes, he talks about his chicken, Dudley, and in Commercial Breaks, said poultry finally appears. Esteban considers Dudley as his best friend. In the episode Crushed, Ivana (London's dog) & Scamp (Maddie's dog) have puppies. Esteban adopts one of the female puppies, naming her "Maria Consuelo Margarita del Cielo."

Personality[]

Esteban speaks with a strong Spanish accent and is overly dramatic and slightly dim at times. However, he is shown to be good and kind at heart and possesses a strong sense of loyalty towards his friends. Esteban acts like a child sometimes, which is one of the reasons he is great friends with Zack and Cody.

Appearance[]

Esteban has dark hair, fair skin and is quite tall. His most common outfit is his Bellboy Uniform, which consists of a dark green long-sleeved jacket with gold colored buttons and a name tag and a pair of dark beige pants. He also wears a matching round green hat with a golden colored band near its rim. However, after work, Esteban likes to don his world famous neon blue pimp suit as well as his unforgettable solid gold pimp cane.

Relationships[]

  • Carey Martin: In the episode It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Hotel, Esteban imagines that he's rich, and he started to dance with Carey. Also, in Loosely Ballroom, he was going to dance with her.
  • The Tipton's Nurse: named Shannon, portrayed by Cheryl Burke. In Loosely Ballroom they danced the Cha-Cha together and won the competition. After, they briefly flirted with each other, although Esteban didn't exactly pick up what she was saying.
  • Francesca Consuela Maria Gonzalez de Masso Garcia Lucia Greenburg Ramon Gomez: The woman he deeply fell in love with in the episode "Mother of the Groom" of The Suite Life on Deck and they ended up marrying each other.

Trivia[]

  • It's revealed in Hotel Hangout that Mr. Moseby reminds Esteban of his father, who Esteban describes as being "strict, demanding, ruthless and mean." But despite that description, Esteban claims that he also really misses father (indicating that his father has passed away), indicating that Esteban and his father had a good relationship (to some extent at least).
  • He shares a part of his name (Inigo Montoya) with a character in the 1987 film Princess Bride.
  • He claims to like nature films in Cody Goes to Camp -- Carey (Zack and Cody's mom) uses an example of what female bears will do to protect their cubs as a way of threatening him to her where Zack is (after he left to try and bring Cody back from his math camp).
  • In Christmas at the Tipton it's revealed that Esteban is ticklish under his armpits when he put his hands under them to thaw his hands when they got stuck to the guests' bags.
