Every so often, the hotel receives a few interesting updates and the hotel version/released used to change. This occurred right up until R/V63, when Sulake decided to introduce "builds" instead (e.g. Build 1335) and also, we now refer to the updates past V/R33 as "BETA updates". Different releases/versions used to be a rare occasion back in 2000-2003 but they became more common as Sulake and Habbo Hotel grew in size. Here is a list of what V41 - V50 brought to the hotel:
V41
- A new dialogue would pop up when players gained an achievement.
- The ability to allow/disallow pets eating all the food in a room was introduced.
- Users could now log into Habbo via Facebook.
V42
- More pet commands were added.
- Players could view the amount of credits they had and access the news in the "Me" menu.
- A new dialogue would pop up when players clicked the credits icon.
- The news dialogue no longer appeared on the hotel view.
- The Marketplace was added.
- It was now possible to log into Habbo via a range of services.
