Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
Hotel de Love is a pleasant and sometimes funny film, without being completely satisfying.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Stephen Holden
Hotel de Love, the directing and screenwriting debut of Craig Rosenberg, is like a Valentine's Day box of heart-shaped chocolates that all have the same too-sweet cherry fillings.
Read Full Review >The Onion (A.V. Club) Nathan Rabin
It's glossy, dumb fun that is diverting enough but forgotten 20 minutes after it's over.
Read Full Review >Chicago Reader Jonathan Rosenbaum
Some of it looks like a TV commercial, and the characters' motivations could have been generated by a computer, but the cast--Ray Barrett, Julia Blake, Simon Bossell, Saffron Burrows, Pippa Grandison, and Aden Young--is attractive and energetic.
Read Full Review >ReelViews James Berardinelli
And, while it's not bad enough for me to suggest that it should have been left where it came from, this certainly isn't a shining example of Australian cinema.
Read Full Review >San Francisco Chronicle Ruthe Stein
Unfortunately, Hotel de Love also has all the originality of an all-purpose valentine. First- time filmmaker Craig Rosenberg appears to have seen every relationship movie ever made. To his credit, he borrowed only from the best.
Read Full Review >San Francisco Examiner Barbara Shulgasser
Now and then the script reaches admirable heights of humor.
Read Full Review >Austin Chronicle Alison Macor
Some of the gags seem a bit too labored, and by the time the rather charming ending unfolds, these weaker moments in Hotel de Love may force some viewers to check out early.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
The young stars are attractive and capable, but Hotel de Love is as synthetic as an old "Love Boat" episode.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Staff(not credited)
Writer/director Craig Rosenberg is no master of subtlety -- in fact, he seems to have only two settings, whacking excess and treacly pathos -- and the film is awash in ponderous whimsy.
Read Full Review >Washington Post Bruce Walker
This is billed as a romantic comedy, but it's much more boring than funny.
