[edit] Tipton staff
- Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya De La Rosa Ramírez (played by Adrian R'Mante) — The earnest bellboy of the Tipton of Hispanic descent. He often calls Zack and Cody "little blonde peoples". In the episode It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Hotel, Esteban harbors a desire to manage the Tipton. He originally came to the United States to be a baseball player, but became a bellhop instead. He is a bowler, and once affected a Southern accent after being taught by a Texan diction coach, but unlearned it due to his dislike of the accent. Esteban was made an American citizen in the episode Boston Tea Party. Esteban also had to take care of Harry, a con-artist, in the episode Have A Nice Trip. He has a pet chicken, Dudley.
- Arwin Quentin Hawkhauser (played by Brian Stepanek) — The inventor who works as an engineer for the Tipton. He has a crush on Carey, as shown in The Prince & The Plunger, but is afraid to act upon it. Arwin once coached Zack and Cody's basketball team. He hates carrots and is allergic to horses, as shown in Free Tippy. In Kisses & Basketball, Bowling, and Going for the Gold, Carey kisses him; he fainted each time. It is also shown that he has a picture of Carey in his office that lights up when he claps his hands, as well as a cardboard cut out of her. Arwin was a professional bowler, illustrated in Bowling. He stopped bowling because his mother's obsessive cheering made him nervous in competition.
- Patrick (played by Patrick Bristow) — The maître d' for the Tipton Hotel's restaurant. One of the most sarcastic characters on the show, he treats everyone with disdain, especially Zack and Cody. He likes coconut flavored chewing gum and doesn't like Maddie because she doesn't stock it, as shown in the episode Big Hair & Baseball. He has a girlish shriek. Due to London's generous tips, Patrick has been able to afford a foreign sports car, indicated in Twins at the Tipton. However, Mr. Moseby claims that Patrick wrecked it.
- Muriel (played by Estelle Harris) — The hotel housekeeper, who is good-natured but lazy. She is usually seen sitting down with her feet up (when she isn't stealing money from guests). She once dated mobster Alphonse "Hot Peppers" DeLeo, before joining the Tipton in 1938, as shown in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Hotel. The character does not appear in season two.
- Lance (played by Aaron Musicant) — A lifeguard who London sets Maddie up with on a blind date. He only talks about water, causing Maddie to dump him. They are still friends, however. Lance showed Maddie how to do CPR in Rumors, and is a lousy ballroom dancer in Loosely Ballroom.
[edit] Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow staff and students
- Sister Dominick (played by Marianne Muellerleile) — London and Maddie's teacher who is a nun and works at Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow. She seems to favor London over Maddie, even though Maddie is the hard working student.
- Sister Rose (played by Mindy Sterling) — Gym teacher of London, Maddie, Mary Margret, and Leslie.
- Mary Margaret (played by Monique Coleman) — Mary Margaret is Maddie's friend from school. Not much is known about her, except she's smart and only likes London for her money and possessions. She is usually shown with Corrie.
- Corrie (played by Vanessa Anne Hudgens) — Corrie is a schoolmate of Maddie, Mary Margaret, and her idol London at Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow. She is very perky and is obsessed with London.
[edit] Friends of Zack and Cody
- Tapeworm (played by Dennis Bendersky) — One of Zack and Cody's best friends. He is strange and also a math genius. He is called Tapeworm because he ate 20 hotdogs in two minutes. He was the drummer for Rock Squared in Band in Boston.
- Bob (played by Charlie Stewart) — One of the boys' newer friends. Bob is dyslexic. Zack meets him in school one day when he was moved into a regular class from a Special Education class because he was doing so well in it. He likes to play Total World Conquest with the boys and Cody's friends, Warren and Jeremy, though they almost never finish their games because Zack and Cody usually end up fighting. Bob, as shown in Smart & Smarterer and Odd Couples, is somewhat impatient. It was shown in French 101 that he speaks fluent French and that he has a crush on the French ambassador's daughter, Jolie. In the episode Forever Plaid, he states that his favorite subject is science. He has a sister, as shown in Election, and a younger brother that's mentioned in Twins At The Tipton. He likes visiting Zack and Cody just because the doorman calls him "sir."
- Jessica and Janice (played by Rebecca Rosso and Camilla Rosso) — Two English twins. After they visited the Tipton in Boston for a twin convention (as seen in Twins At The Tipton), they enrolled in Zack and Cody's school. Cody almost always ends up getting both girls, whilst Zack gets neither, even though it is generally his idea to go out with them in the first place.
- Warren (played by Gus Hoffman) — A friend of Zack and Cody from school. Warren attends Camp Knock-a-Number along with Cody and Tapeworm.
- Agnes (played by Allie Grant) — Agnes is a girl who goes to school with Zack and Cody who has a crush on both of them (seemingly whichever one suits her at the time).
