There was a movie awhile back about some people in a hotel that dont know each other but are linked in some way and a crazy serial killer is killing one by one and they all think it is some one else. I think it came out the same time mindhunters came out but im not sure.

The movie you are thinking of has to be Identity (2003)
Strangers from all different walks of life: a limo driver escorting a movie star, parents with a young son, a cop transporting a convict, a prostitute, a young couple, and a motel manager are caught up in a nasty rainstorm, stuck at a motel in desolate Nevada. Soon they realize they may be at the motel for another reason when one by one, people start getting killed off. As tensions flare and fingers are pointed, they have to get to the bottom of why they're there. Meanwhile in an undisclosed location, a psychiatrist is trying to prove the innocence of a man accused of murder in an eleventh hour trial. How these two through-lines are related can only be found in Identity

Yeah it does sound like See No Evil, which came out last year though.
That`s the first movie I thought of when you mentioned the word "hotel".
Could this be it?

A decent gore flick, 20 May 2006
7/10

I was expecting this movie to suck, but what I got was a pretty good slasher/gore film. Most of the death scenes are adequately brutal. The teens are decent, with Penny McNamee definitely the best of the bunch. Rachael Taylor looks like a young Christie Brinkley, but doesn't bring much to the movie other than that. Kane was good as the killer, and is totally believable as a fearsome juggernaut. I saw the "twist" coming from miles away, but I still enjoyed the movie.
But what really stood out to me was the direction. Gregory Dark might actually have a career in legit film ahead of him. Aside from overusing the horror film "speed cam"(you know, where like the guy's face shakes all fast?), there's some good shots here. The camera angles and environments really emphasize Kane's size, making him look even bigger than he actually is.
If you're looking for deep story or characters, this ain't it. But that's not what slasher films are about. If you're looking for some good violence, or if you're into gory films, go check this out!
Hope this helps!
Take it easy!

It's called "Identity" and it's (very loosely) based on Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None." There are at least seven adaptations of it on film and in the theater. I suggest reading the book first, which is very good (short, simple, and interesting).
