Critics Consensus

Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation delivers exactly what fans will expect - which means another 97 agreeably lightweight minutes of fast-paced gags and colorful animation.

Color animation. But This was 97 minutes of irritating character movements and cringy dialogue is not worth the vacation cruise. I like the first two movies fine the this……. Come on

Like its predecessors, surprisingly solid. I can say I actually got a relatively decent amount of enjoyment from 'Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation'. I don't actually rate the characters in these films all that much, aside from Dracula I can't honestly say I remembered any of the others from past installments (which I, admittedly, haven't watched since, like, 2018?). Despite that, the stories onscreen tend to be passable enough that I can watch them with ease. There are some bits that are a tad too slow, though for the most part it's a harmless enough 90 minutes that it is watchable. I just mentioned that I find the characters to be forgettable, the same can be said for the voice talent to be honest. Everyone puts in an OK performance, nothing that noteworthy but, again, the plot does enough that it's not a big deal. As for a cast standout... Adam Sandler, I guess. Eager to see if lightning can somehow strike a fourth time with 2022's 'Hotel Transylvania: Transformania'...

Even watched beside various incarnations of the Addams and the Munsters, this remains the most family-friendly and proudly silly of all the monster dynasties.

Tristram Fane Saunders

Daily Telegraph (UK)

Hotel Translyvania 3 looks very much a B-movie, with characters that are easy to like but hard to love. Still, at just 97 minutes it doesn't outstay its welcome.

For all the music that Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation offers, it amounts to a one-note production.

...though there's no sunshine in the movie, Hotel Transylvania 3 definitely has a summer vibe. And watching these characters try to navigate the naturally corny nature of a cruise ship vacation is pretty hilarious.
