Figaro Hotel is an adult visual novel by Serious Punch, built in Ren'Py with 3DCG and AI CG artwork. You play Alan, a 22-year-old entrepreneur who expected a billion-dollar startup but instead receives keys to the Grand Starlight, an old hotel in Italy. With little guidance and no staff, he manages the front desk while interacting with female guests. The game is a sandbox story experience where choices determine which guest stories unfold and which paths close.
The current version is v0.2, released September 5, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, and supports Italian, Spanish, German, French, and Portuguese. The game is uncensored. The latest update added sub-routes that lead only to adult scenes, with three paths normally appearing and a final path that blocks them for players who do not want a relationship with a character. It also added Annabel and Natalie as new characters, new events for Laura, Kate, Natalie, and Annabel, revised the intro and several events, fixed minor bugs, and recommends replaying until version 0.3.
Developer's description
At twenty-two, Alan had a plan: a billion-dollar startup and early retirement. What he got instead was a set of keys and the Grand Starlight, an old hotel in the heart of Italy, a country whose language he barely speaks. No staff, no instructions. Just him, the front desk... and the guest register.
All women. An elegant lady on holiday with her daughter, who doesn't trust strangers. A devoted couple, maybe a little too devoted. A girl forever bent over her laptop, working on projects she shows to no one. And a quiet stranger nobody knows anything about. Yet.
The assistance requests start piling up on day one, and behind every door there's a story waiting for the right person to hear it. Who to listen to, who to trust, how far to go... that's yours to decide. Every choice opens a path... and quietly closes others.
You're checked in. The rest is up to you.
v0.2
Sub-routes
have been introduced.
A quick explanation:
Sub-routes only lead to sex scenes.
Three different paths will always appear, except for the last one, which blocks sex scenes permanently. This feature is designed for players who do NOT want to have a relationship with a certain character.
New characters:
Annabel
Natalie
New events:
Laura ev. 4
Kate ev. 3
Natalie ev. 1
Annabel ev. 1
Changed events:
Intro
Kate and Carla ev. 1
Eva and Laura ev. 1
We polished up some parts of the code and fixed minor bugs.
For now, we strongly recommend replaying the game.
Starting with version 0.3, this should no longer be necessary.

Short review, because its not worth doing a proper one Same old visuals and models used countless times before, and clearly no effort IMO was made to design at least somewhat new characters. Dialogue, plot and narrative are squarely based…

I just wanted to say that you’re doing an amazing job with this game. The art, the characters, and the way you develop the story really stand out and make every update worthwhile. Personally, the content with milfs is one…

Haven't seen a sadder game than this. You just click and click and just keep playing some loser simulator. Dont even get a choice to do something different. Absolutely terrible These character models are similar, so feels like its related…
