A Huge Thank You & Today’s Update!

We have some incredible news to share – thanks to all of you, Hotel Architect has officially made it into the Top 50 Steam Next Fest Demos! We were extremely proud getting into the top 100 earlier in the week, but this is the icing on the cake!
This wouldn’t have been possible without your passion, creativity, and feedback. Seeing the amazing hotels you’ve built, the unique experiences you’ve crafted, and the wonderful community that has grown around the game is amazing!

So from all of us on the development team: THANK YOU!



While you've all been becoming professional hoteliers this week, we’ve been hard at work making Hotel Architect smoother and squashing bugs! An update is rolling out this afternoon, bringing improvements, and fixes based on your feedback. Check out the patch notes below for more details!

[h3]Demo Patch Notes: [/h3]
  • Fixed bug that occasionally caused the critic to never appear in Gothenburg (first critic in tutorial).
  • Fixed bug that sometimes allowed you to place items outside of the buildable area.
  • Fixed issue with unusable rowing machines!
  • Reduced the clipping of characters using stairs.
  • Waiters now alert you (thought bubble) if the restaurant is lacking cutlery.
  • Updated main menu (new videos, links, changelog).
  • Performance improvements related to high count of littering items on the property.
  • Stability improvements.


Before we head into the weekend - we've been celebrating Steam Next Fest by hosting two giveaways as well. We want as many people to have the opportunity to win as possible, so here's a reminder of what's happening and the links 😎

Happy designing!
