Customer Reviews

Very Addictive
I started playing this game because I had nothing else to play at the time and now I'm hooked! Any tycoon game lover will really enjoy this game. There are loads of different hotels and cities to choose from and it's completely up to you how you run it.

You can hire and fire staff, train staff, create advertising campaigns, holiday packages, design your own hotel rooms, suites and function rooms (including restaurants, bars, health suites, indoor pools, business & conference facilities, games rooms).

If you don't have the patience to build your own hotel you can play a random game that allows you to play around with a partially built hotel - you set the prices, the quality and look after the customer needs in order to try and reach 5 star level - excellent fun.

Great
I spend hours playing this game, you start off with one hotel and get to build all your rooms, deciding on size, rating and all amenities to attract all kinds of customer. You can also build restaurants, gyms, swimming pools and much more. Once your hotel is running smoothly and making enough money (which can be challenging if you get carried away building too much too fast!) you can then build a second hotel and so on in different areas and become an ultimate tycoon!

Hotel Giant - Not compatible with Win XP Service Pack 2
Title kind off says it all!

Bought it - installed it - crashes every time I start the tutorial. After 6 weeks of hounding tech support and forums have been told it doesn't work with Service Pack 2. They have no intention of doing a patch etc to remedy this.

Why couldn't they just put that info in the FAQ's bit!

Very annoyed and will avoid them in future.
