Although Pets Hotel is cute, it’s lacking. It could have been so much more, but I think it falls again into the category of games ported to console that should have had some more care added to them before release. I knew from the start to take the gameplay with a grain of salt. I enjoyed taking care of the animals and the minimal management elements added a bit of interest, but there just isn’t enough here to captivate and keep me playing for a long period of time. While I might recommend this for younger gamers because it’s pretty simple, the clunky mechanics would be frustrating for them, I think.

You may enjoy the meticulous management of complex systems, and if you do, should find Pets Hotel to be a rewarding experience. But otherwise it's a hard sell…

Pets Hotel is a basic simulation game with limited depth. The action is great if you love pets and straightforward gameplay. However, if you want something to test you, this will leave you wanting.
