I overall found Hotel Reserve to be a good movie, albeit not a great one. There are some very tense and thrilling moments such as the climb to the roof top at the end, but some of the story does drag a bit and does feel thin at times, the script could have been tighter and Patricia Medina and Lucie Mannheim have little to do and are rather bland on the whole. Conversely, James Mason and Herbert Lom are very good in roles that I think are perfect for them, the film with nice cinematography, camera angles and production values is well made, the film is competently directed and the music is brooding and atmospheric. All in all, a good movie but part of me felt it could have been better. 7/10 Bethany Cox.
