Hampton Inn

Loved this hotel! The service was excellent, the room was clean. We had a suite and it was HUGE, which is pretty great since we only paid $ 100 a night. The bed was comfortable, the pool and hot tub were also really great. Parking was free and easy and it was only a $ 12 über ride/​10 minute drive to downtown Portland. This is definitely a great alternative to the potentially high prices of hotels closer to the action. Plus they have free wifi and free breakfast! I will definitely stay here again!

Stayed here in August and it was perfect for our family! The breakfast was the best part! Good food, nice set-​up, perfect for a busy, vacationing family. I would definitely stay here again!

While this property looks clean, there was a vague smell of mold when you entered the building. Our room was noticeably humid and musty– like someone just bathed a large dog before we got there. The carpet was damp, the bed was damp, and in the morning when we got dressed, the moisture had penetrated our luggage. We had the AC pumping constantly, and it still didn’t help. I’d make allowances if it had been raining, but it’s been sunny and clear for days. Pro– the night clerks were friendly, as was the shuttle driver.

Excellent service, very friendly and accommodating staff. The room was comfortable and filled with everything we needed! The continental breakfast was great and it was nice to have fresh cookies in the lobby.

A consistently decent Hampton Inn which is why I like staying in them. Clean and a good location to get to Portland or down to Kennebunkport area. Our daughter is a student at nearby UNE and we get a substantial discount based on that. The breakfast area here is way too small, no matter what time of year we visit, it is always too crowded and we end up in a conference room. Pool is small but adequate if there aren’t a lot of other guests there.
My only complaint is the staff is lukewarm at best, not friendly or inviting for the most part with a couple of exceptions. The evening staff was easily overwhelmed by me asking to get my UNE discount and seemed annoyed I hadn’t booked it that way– in all fairness when you book on-​line there is no way to apply that. The front desk staff has never had difficulty accommodating my request in the past. We wanted to go downstairs play cards and have a drink but the woman at the desk was glaring at us and we decided to stay in our room instead.
That aside, it is clean, updated and a good value with our discount.

Came here on a busy night and the gentleman at the front could not have been more rude. We made a mistake of booing a king instead of two doubles. We requested if there were any available and he said, «No, but I can cancel your reservation». Jumped to conclusions extremely quickly rather than trying to work with us.
Also we are Elite Members and were never once thanked for our business.

The hotel itself is REALLY nice. You get a comfy bed, a fridge, a microwave, chair, etc… i really like that.
it’s close to the mall (and i mean, right across the street) which means it’s centrally located to food, and things to do!
What i didn’t like: We had gone the day after a snow storm and the driveway was a mess. It could have been sanded or salted… i’m 30 weeks pregnant and didn’t appreciate having to slip and slide all over the place. One of the mornings the parking lot was kind of an ice skating rink… and we didn’t see sand or salt or anything…
Another issue — Because of the storm the lobby was SUPER slippery… worse than the driveway… You would think they would have dry mops or fans constantly trying to dry the area… that was incredibly dangerous. …
We stay at this hotel every year because of how comfy the rooms are and how nice of a stay it is but this was the first year witnessing how they take care of snow and we weren’t happy with that all. Other than that, great stay!!!

Not impressed with this Hampton Inn. I am an avid Hampton Inn fan, but this one is the worst Hampton Inn I have stayed. Other then the maid service, the rest of the staff I find very unfriendly, especially those at the front desk; I walked by there many times and never once did the staff say hi or knowledge me. Just feel like being ignored. It also has one of the smallest breakfast area I have ever seen. The only good thing about this place is an indoor pool.

Friendly staff, shuttle service, near restaurants and mall

If I could sign a lease with Hampton Inns I would. Right now.
Clean. Clean. Clean.
That’s my first priority when renting a room at «discount» hotel, and this place is awesome.
You get a fridge, microwave, a super comfy down comforter (you could smell the clean/​bleach smell… which I happen to enjoy, but to each his own) towels and very friendly service. The cleaning lady left cute thank-​you notes when we left a tip. Who writes a thank you note? The employees at Hampton Inn do.
I took one star off because they were doing construction on the lobby floor which made the breakfast/​seating area smaller and therefore more crowded BUT they did a decent job plowing the parking lot during the blizzard which could technically make up for it.
You can walk to the mall, or take a 10 – 15 minute drive to downtown Portland.
Best bang for your buck.

GREAT place to stay!!! Nice big room, clean, quite, beds were very comfortable. Had a couple of small issues while there and they were taken care of immediately. The front desk called to make sure everything was satisfactory after the issue was taken care of. It is very easy to get around. There is a mall and a couple of restaurants within walking distance. Takes only a few minutes to get to downtown Portland, highway is right there. Breakfast is nice, we ate there twice. Loved the oatmeal with the Maine blueberry’s. The eggs were different both days and they have the BEST seasoned potatoes ever!!! The area where you get your food is a little small, but no problem. Love that you can get coffee, tea or hot chocolate 24 hours a day. My husband enjoyed the workout room. Would definitely go back and would definitely recommend this Inn.
