- [R21] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Great game, but spending money feels necessary…: I’ve been playing this game on and off for years, and while I genuinely enjoy it, I keep ending up deleting it for the same reason. Once you reach the harder levels, you’re basically forced to upgrade certain things to progress. The problem is that upgrades require gems, and gems are very difficult to get without spending real money. If you run out
- [R61] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover No update in over a year! 12/24: It was a great game until you realize they added these nasty pimple popping ones instead of new hotels. And it’s been over a year since any updates. Such a long fall from such an originally great game. UPDATE: 2/2026 STILL no new hotels or maps. I will continue NOT to play until you have new hotels. If I keep even checking in. I should just give up. Soo many other
- [R72] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Needs Update: It’s been like a year or more since they have updated the new hotel. It’s been coming soon for over a year when will we get new hotels?
- [R9] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Could be better: Game is always freezing!!
- [R34] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Keeps crashing!!!: I can’t hardly play a level without it crashing! ATP I’m about to delete this game
- [R70] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover This game is to hard: It’s to much for the bell hop. All the customers want food and they get mad very easy. Some of these levels are hard and quite impossible if you ask me. I feel like the game should improve in general. When all the customers want food it’s kind of hard to give them all what the want without a upgrade or without diamonds which the game rarely gives you. Try another game because
- [R90] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Too many glitches: This is a pretty fun game that I actually spend money on , because it’s literally impossible to pass certain levels without an extra boost etc. There has been times where I’m on the verge of winning this game all the last costumer has to do is check out . The game will cut out basically ending before I can get the last laugh or those last points from the costumer which is wastin
- [R37] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Crashing: Ever since the last update the game continues to crash
- [R79] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover I use to enjoy this game: I use to really enjoy this game. Someway somehow it will not let me even play the game sometimes because it crashes and says I need to log into Facebook so the app can share information about me 😑. Like what the heck!! Fix this! I’d love to not have to delete it.
- [R108] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Game won’t connect: I’ve been trying for two weeks to play hotel craze but when I hit the app it just keeps like it’s loading up and don’t….im up on high levels and been playing it for couple years be a shame if I have to get rid of it cause I love playing it….. and not had a update on this game for awhile
- [R4] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Bad expense: Expensive and built to make players buy coins
- [R13] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager You have to pay to progress: I really liked it and was doing pretty good but it's these gems that got me stuck! Had I known not to use them except for the upgrades because once you don't have enough you have to pay to get more smh. So yea, it was fun while it lasted but will be uninstalling
- [R91] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Only works if you pay: You can play the most flawless game, and you won’t pass unless you buy the upgrades. I have passed levels and screenshot showing I passed, but it will say I failed. Reached out to the developer multiple times and haven’t heard back, which is disconcerting being I have spent money on this game. The game itself is wonderful, but I no longer purchase the upgrades no for it due
- [R66] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Pay attention to what you’re reviewing!!!: This review is for the Hotel Craze game; so far I’ve seen hardly any reviews for THIS game. Somehow people are putting reviews for the wrong game. There’s no hospital, no doctors, no pimple popping, and no restaurants. There’s just a bunch of hotels in different places around the world and you have 40 levels in each one. Some of them are really hard to g
- [R46] Grand Hotel Mania・ My Manager Pay to play.: I like the game. But you are unable upgrade anything without diamonds and unable to win without the upgrades. To get diamond you have to pay real money. If that would change I would keep playing. All the other reviews where the devs are saying you can get diamond by completing level or doing challenges are a lie. I played lots of rounds and only got 10 diamond tops! The videos will n
- [R63] Hotel Craze® Design Makeover Bug Needs Fixing: Sacred snow hot spring hotel has a bug where I'm unable to give the fan to the customer. The guy picks up the fan instead of the receptionist. The receptionists doesn't pick up the fan. And it makes it to where I fail everytime I play a level. Other than that, it's been a good game to pass time.
