Trap House IIIwas met with generally positive reviews. AtMetacritic,which assigns anormalizedrating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the mixtape received anaveragescore of 61, based on five reviews.[12]

Neil Martinez-BelkinXXLgave the album an L, saying "In all, Trap House III is Gucci’s strongest effort this year, perhaps his best since his 2012 “comeback tape,” Trap Back. The booming production and the Brick Squad CEO’s natural charisma make it so. The two aforementioned Auto-Tuned records also serve as proof that Gucci’s still more than capable of surprising listeners with some unexpected tricks up his sleeve.[16]David Jeffries ofAllMusicgave the album three and a half stars out of five, saying "Good times, some redundant numbers, all of it jumbled together, and everything else returning fans are used to (or frustrated by). Just be aware, Gucci's inspired by more serene and soft moments at this point, so call this the most" couch locked "of all Trap Houses and get prepared to sprawl out for a long, low ride."[13]
