VN - Ren'Py - Harem Hotel [v0.18.2] [Runey]

Great game love the characters , decent story so far with good sex scenes, I haven't ran into any bugs and I've completed all available content. Cant wait to see what else they add in the future its a very promising start with a lot of content to keep most people interested

I think I'm currently around day 180. So far, I'm enjoying this game very much.

I really give props for the diversity of characters. I really enjoy Kate, and Ashley just for straight up story. It's hard to find anything that portrays people with mental issues in such a positive light (regarding Kate's autism). And Ashley breaks my heart. But there isn't really a bad character in the group.

The android, that I've dubbed Shirohime is such a fascinating character. I've yet to reach the end of her story. But the premise for the character so far actually encourages thought which is rare for a porn game.

The subject of slavery is an ambitious aspect to include in a game without making it gross. I look forward to seeing if it resolves in some way.

Harem Hotel is an adult visual novel that truly exceeded my expectations. With a captivating story line and stunning artwork, this game offers a unique and enjoyable harem experience.
The characters are well-developed and the interactions between them are intriguing, allowing to truly connect with the cast.
The writing is cleverly crafted, striking a perfect balance between romance and humour, keeping me engaged throughout the entire game play.
Additionally, the visual aesthetics are absolutely breathtaking, with high-quality illustrations that heighten the immersion in the game.
The inclusion of a variety of appealing female characters adds to the allure of this visual novel, providing players with numerous opportunities to explore different romantic relationships.
Harem Hotel is a refreshing addition to the adult visual novel genre, offering an addictive and entertaining journey that left me eagerly anticipating each new chapter.

I need to start by saying this was my 2nd game of this type and this is where my love began. The game is perfect in every single aspect. The story it's really deep but it perfectly fits the vibes of the game. The characters are so real, all of them have their identity and their stories connect among them in amazing ways. Shotout to the not-protagonists characters, they made me go into the story even more. Runey you're amazing, no jokes. This game made me cry a lot of times, and that's strange for a game of this type but here you can see how good the creator is. Love your work, I hope your lives goes well <3

Dear Dev and review readers...
OH MY GOD; THIS GAME IS AMAZING!! Hahaha.
Im gonna be honest. I wasnt expecting much at first because the girls didnt look appealing at first, but I tried to stick with it because i read some posts about it and ppl here told me that there would be TONS of content... and i wasnt disappointed.
I have been spending hours on Harem Hotel the last few days and the deeper i got into it, the more interested i became into the story and the characters. Its really great to see how the girls arent just some cock hungry bores that become irrelevant after you conquered them but ACTUALLY have character development, somewhat unique personalities and stories.
Games usually struggle to balance interesting storytelling and +18 content. Either the stories are borish or the lewd content feel forced and make no sense over time. But you can feel that the stories of Harem Hotel coming and weaving a great something together the more you continue to play. All that while maintaining the +18 atmosphere of the game.
Of course i like some girls more than the others (Autumn is just so hawt and fun to corrupt omg, while Cali is just.. ok cool you are here, lol) but nonethless they ARE interesting characters. Heck, I even started to like Ashley at some point. (Dealmaker for me was her opening up her feelings to the twins.. after that she only became better characterwise imo)

So.. anyways.. Your game "Harem Hotel" is a super duper interesting game and i cant wait to corrupt the girls any further!

great this game is 6/5!

Great game, lots of content, long time between updates but they keep coming. Good harem style game with no NTR that I've seen at least. Takes bit to build relationship but that adds something. Would recommend to anyone getting into H games!

This is a pretty good game. Runey started out really strong with the game, but I think he accidently let it get a little bloated and has lost sight of the core of the game. This really is mostly a visual novel at this point. That isn't really a bad thing since most trainer games are too repetitive, but walls of text with a little animation from time to time feels a little sluggish.

I absolutely adore this game. It may be the best on this site. It heaps on the char, personality, and content. The little details and large go very far. I will always applaud interesting inter-character interactions. It's how you know the world and people in it are done well. It's bloody brilliant!

First of all Man nobody could prepare me for that amount of content. This game is passion project you can easily tell that. Its probably a long thought dream of developer. And its well done. Different kind of girls suits most of people, they do have organic personalities. And for its genre its really playable,for instance First time I played it did just take my whole night,I just cant get off. I wish my best to developer to upgrade this masterpiece.

No need for feedback. You did excellent. It's the best adult game I ever played and it's my favorite. The only sad part is that since over half a year is has no updates... SADGE... Hopefully the devs will keep sustaining this awesome game, it deserves the recognition it has, and much more.

Very good game, it has a little something for everyone.
Lots of different characters that you can get to know and train.
The story is interesting, the choices you make feel like they matter, which is something I think is important.

My favorite game for now and ever, the best game i ever played, it's ridiculous how good this game is, everything is so well made and the caracthers little by little making you feel emotionally attached to them, this is the best game ever

Spent quite a few hours in the game and I'd like to say that it's one of the best out there.
First and foremost - writing is great. The girls are unique and you get to know them as individuals. That is very valuable. Hate that Maria is always trying to go behind my back and seduce ppl. The Android arc has been one very cool story so far with a bit of philosophical moments and I totally love it, even more then all others'. She is amazing person.
Sex scenes are diverse and for some there are build-ups, so it's not just some dumb humping. Could've had more kinks more often but still. Femdom is there but it's far and between. Great sex talk though!
I got triggered by the elf slavery setting and there are episodes that are disgusting from a moral perspective, but hopefully MC will be able to change that horrible state of affairs.

Minuses of the game are slavery theme and some horrible episodes of the story (episode about blood, for example). There are not many of them but they do ruin the mood. If it were for them I'd give the game five stars easily. Character arcs are that great.

Hopefully there is still a long and pleasant journey ahead of players with a distinctive happy end and freedom.

Upd. After a certain event the Android girl who used to be my favourite changed A LOT. I understand that the game is dramatic and serious, but I am really getting tired of all those human memory lanes and now I got AI ethics and quantum rocket science on my hands on top of that. I mean, come on! I just want her to stay the way she was and make me happy. There is enough drama as is!

Very nice story and stunning visuals. It's actually the first porn I game I have seen that actually has good shadows. It's also great to see a mix of bdsm content and slave kinks. There is already a great amount of content and luckily there is more coming. The management is also very simple and easy and does not require too much attention

I've been talking about HH in this thread for so long. And I forgot to rate. Sorry for late rating.
HH is one of best Adult games on all platforms. Everything about this game is perfect.
Are you sure? Ain't ya lying? Yo may asked, and for the answers . All you need is download this game and play it. You'll see it ya-self. Oh, don't forget to kiss, hug and give lots of headpats to the girls in the Harem.

I was expecting a quick 10 minute session and ended up with a 4 day binge. Really felt like I was reading a good book with actual fleshed out characters, with just enough control. Good story, good graphics, good characters, good stuff.

If you love games with a good story, you will love Harem Hotel.
The characters are well thought out and each of their stories are well done.

It is strongly recommended that you spend equal time with the characters, because if you focus too much on specific characters, it can cause continuity issues with scenes, which are easy to work through.

The dev is very responsive to reports of any issues, and will correct them as quickly as possible.

There is a huge fan base for this game, and if you know anything about F95, you know that will also bring out the trolls, so use common sense, and be polite in the comments.

Other players are also willing to help people with questions, but it is strongly recommended that you use the search feature at the top right of the page before asking. Some questions have already been asked many times since the start of the game.

For overall fun, I give this game a 10 out of 10 erect penises
It is well worth it for anyone who enjoys a good story, with intermittent naughty bits...
Remember, this is still a game under construction, but it has a shitload of content already.
The uncompressed size of the game is over 100GB, but the dev has compressed the images down to about 1/10th of that.

This could be average 3dcg game with mid renders and some micromanagement but game is a lot more than it seems like at first look.

- there is a lot of content with girls, game just throws event after event at you and it doesnt stop for a long time
- girls they are unique and well made
- H scenes are pretty good for what game is
- game is very relaxing with all the music and management of hotel


Cons:
- game forever in development
- lots of things screams to be improved, big potential

This is a real good game, but for myself, some drawbacks that kills all the fun/interest.

Pros:
- Average renders and graphics
- Crappy animations that improves as you play further.
- Nice characters
- Good writing
- Girl feels different from the others.
- Good gameplay
- Dev is friendly.

Cons:
- Generic repetitive scenes are used.
- No management at all.
- Forced content... I know it's a harem game, but if you don't progress X girl, then you can't keep playing Y girl. (Really annoying)
- Several bugs.
- Years of development, still in development...

I'd really encourage players to play this game, it's really a good one, I just don't like the repetitive grinding that much, and the experience of avoiding a girl is not really an option.

Version: 0.17.2
(Played with the excellent walkthrough mod.)

The early game plays very much like a typical free-roam based AVN, there's exploration, character events and basic resource management. After a while, this gameplay drops off, and a large overarching story gets shaped. Each young woman who comes to live at the hotel, has their own coming of age story. They each have their own experiences, beliefs and personalities. The MC is there to help them where he can, and to get in their panties.

For me, the world, lore and story that Harem Hotel builds, is the most interesting aspect of the game. And that's not knocking the other content, like erotic scenes, renders, and character design.

Harem Hotel does have its flaws. Its music is uninspired, and the male protagonist is the typical HS2 body with a dong attached. I'm not too bothered by it, because this is a technical limitation.

Story-wise, Harem Hotel gets very deep and complex. There are a lot of details that are gathered through different LIs. Sometimes the game fucks up, where a character gives exposition that they were previously unaware of. (Sylvia is probably the biggest offender here. She was unaware of certain creatures during an event, then later provided a ton of exposition about these creatures and how they're integral to her society.) Sometimes I got the impression that plot-holes were retconned or overexplained in later events. I can't be too sure of this, since I haven't played earlier versions. Still, I have a small worry that the writer has set up a minefield of details and exposition, and I hope they're not writing themselves in a hole.


There are a few suggestions I'd like to make:

I'd love to see an overhaul of how different building/events are integrated in a character's story. Mostly the Dungeon. It just seems to be there for an LI to be at the mercy of the player, not contributing to the LI's character development. Emma might be the exception here. I think there's an opportunity to have character-based kinks that can tie in to an LI's story. For instance: Ashley could be helped by a DD/LG scene, showing her the fatherly love she never had. Felicity could be brat-tamed. Orgasm denial fits Maria most.
The submission trait feels useless, and more about breaking someone. This in contrast with what BDSM is about, where both the Dom and Sub get a valuable experience.

The exhibition trait is another one that's in a weird spot. I think the way it's done for Autumn is actually pretty good. For most other LIs it just seems to come down to a dare.

It could be interesting to have a different progression for different characters. Maria is so dominant, that it could make sense to gain submission points with her first, before she opens up emotionally. For other girls, it would make sense to need a higher level of submission before they can be enticed to do exhibitionist actions.

I'd love to see more intertwined content (events across LIs being referenced) that are mutually exclusive, specially in the current early & mid-game. Added to this, I'd like more events with minimum levels. After building the 2nd floor, I suddenly had a bunch of new tenants. I didn't really interact with them because the Floor 1 girls still had events going on. Then, thanks to the walkthrough mod informing me of some cross-LI content, I decided to grind the events of the Floor 2 girls. Having some more minimum level requirements for events would even out the pacing, while (sadly) somewhat limiting player choice.

All these suggestions are mostly related to the early game and integration of different (and probably newer) systems. These are just ideas, and I'm fully aware that remastering such a large part of the game is an immense task.
