It peaked at number seven on the Dutch Tipparade chart and number fifteen in Spain, Additionally, it reached number five on the Spanish Maxi Singles Sales chart. "Falsas Esperanzas" was later included on the Spanish edition of Aguilera's greatest hits album Keeps Gettin' Better: A Decade of Hits (2008).

David Browne, writing for Entertainment Weekly, felt that "Falsas Esperanzas" left Aguilera "room to growl like a 'blues singer.'" Sonic. net editor Kembrew McLeon lauded the song as one of Aguilera's best uptempo songs that "breathe[s] life into the album". Picolli praised the song as the album's best track, noting: "a dizzy Vegas showstopper that scoots along on Aguilera's high flying harmonies and a defiant chorus". It has been called "one of Aguilera's greatest hits" by Rolling Stone en Español. Lucas Villa of Billboard called the song a "tropical bop". He also stated that the Dance Radio remix of "Falsas Esperanzas" was "sleek" and "added more bite to Aguilera's roar".

Aguilera also gave a performance at the 2001 Grammy Awards in February, performing "Pero Me Acuerdo de Ti" and "Falsas Esperanzas" Leila Cobo of Billboard magazine called Aguilera's Grammy performance "remarkably mainstream".
