Chicago Sun-Times -
This is one of the better intimate dramas of the year.

The Hollywood Reporter -
It's a high point for everyone involved.

The Playlist -
If not for the performance of Daddario, Lost Girls & Love Hotels could have been a disaster.
|
|
ReelViews -
Other films have told similar stories with greater power. Director William Olsson appears unwilling to fully commit to the darkness that a movie of this sort would need to embrace to be both ephemerally disturbing (which it is) and memorable (which it isn’t).

Variety -
William Olsson’s film works as an atmospheric mood piece and sometime erotic drama. It’s less successful as a character study.
