The series NamaStay has been generally well-received by the media for its sharp dialogue, well-played cast, and ability to combine humor with a satirical critique of contemporary trends. Paprika Steen and Lars Brygmann are particularly highlighted for their comedic chemistry and strong performances. However, there is consensus that the series can at times feel a bit uneven and could have benefited from a tighter structure. It is agreed that despite its flaws, the series manages to deliver many laughs and thought-provoking moments, making it worth watching for fans of comedy satire.
Vielskerfilm.dk points out that NamaStay has many good elements but does not quite meet expectations. The series is described as a mix of The White Lotus and ‘Allo ‘Allo! at the seaside hotel, but it does not quite reach the same level. The comparison to ‘Allo ‘Allo! at the seaside hotel is also mentioned by the film magazine Filmmagasinet Ekko. Ekkofilm also praises the underlying sweetness and warmth found in the series but notes that there is a certain tragedy mixed in with the comedic elements, making the series both hilarious and thought-provoking.
Soundvenue describes NamaStay as a satirical treatment of modern perfectionism and fake staging. The review praises the dialogue and the well-played cast, especially the lead actors, for their sharp and humorous performances.
