David from auspOp said "This album is an epic piece of storytelling that focuses on Jess's history and how it's shaped who she's become. While she has played a part in song writing across previous albums, she's never been quite so raw, honest and believable in her messages. This openness is what makes this album truly sing… They tug at your heartstrings and create such a strong connection, it's hard not to fall in love with each of them."[17]

Jeff Jenkins from Stack Magazine wrote that "Hilda is a sassy collection that swings between urban, pop and ballads. And with such a potent voice, Mauboy is capable of making it all work. It's a mystery why she hasn't had more international success."[18]

Chart performance

Hilda debuted at number one on the Australian Albums Chart in the week of 3 November 2019.[19] It was Mauboy's first original album to reach the chart's top spot.[19]
