Critical reception

Upon release, Cash Box said: "The drums sound like they were recorded in an airplane hanger and there's enough guitar brawn here to strong arm even the toughest ears. All of the sonic boom, though, is in the service of a truly engaging pop song. Move over Bon Jovi and Motley Crue, the snidest rockers around have the sweet smell of success driving them on with this one."

Chicago Tribune said of the song in a review of Love Is for Suckers: "The best song on the album, "Hot Love," is deep-fried in committed drumming and fluent guitars that don't overwhelm melody. It's the best Twisted Sister tune since "We're Not Gonna Take It." The Washington Post said "Twisted Sister's raw image was totally out of sync with the melodic "Hot Love," an obvious attempt to break into the mainstream market." Greg Prato of AllMusic retrospectively described "Hot Love" as a stand-out on Love Is for Suckers.
