"Reviving the Chet Faker persona he'd abandoned back in 2016, Nick Murphy finds salvation in the hypnotic grooves and dark electronic soul of Hotel Surrender ... Proof that you can't keep a good man down, Hotel Surrender is a testament to Murphy's skills as an artist and his attitude as a person".

"Hotel Surrender doesn't represent a radical departure from Built on Glass: the sound is artfully constructed - mellow, electronica-infused pop that is far bigger on textures than hooks ... it's all very tasteful but ultimately a little unexciting. As returns go, it's an underwhelming one".

"Chet Faker is Melbourne-born musician Nick Murphy's alter ego, an avatar he has stepped in and out of with gentle grace over more than a decade of finding a voice that's very much his own. Once described in The Guardian as a purveyor of "mellow-electronic-pop", he is actually something else, closer to the sensuality and slow drag of soul, lilting along to very relaxed beats that have an almost trip-hop feel".
