Hampton Inn New Smyrna Beach

Been here 4 times this year, love this place! Walking distance to the beach&easy to bar hop from. Very clean, cute ambiance &amazing staff. I always come back

Let me start by saying that if I could give this place no stars I would. I do not understand why people rate this place highly when it is by far one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had.
Lets start with check in… yes I understand there was an event going on over the weekend but when you enter the lobby there are signs stating that there is overflow parking available for guests across the street because their lot is extremely small (after seeing the parking lot I would be willing to guess it only has enough spots for a quarter of the rooms in the hotel). Okay no problem… we can walk across the street and park there EXCEPT this «overflow» lot they offered is just city public parking which surprise surprise was also FULL! We ended up having to park in a local shops parking lot and beg them not to tow our car since we were leaving the next day.
After that lovely welcome experience we went up to our room and found that the hotel was extremely warm in the halls which extended into the rooms. When entering the room it was very warm and muggy and the AC was off. We turned it on and after it running for about an hour found that it has turned itself off. Okay no big deal turn it back on but after this happening multiple times, I looked into the settings, and found that it had an auto shut off that could not be disabled. I am a very sensitive sleeper when it comes to temperature (especially the combination of heat and humidity that occurs in florida when the AC is not on) and usually set my home temperature to 70 at night. Well of course because of the lovely auto off system in place I had to wake up 5 times overnight to turn back on the AC because it had gotten around 76 degrees and was super humid. Im all about being eco friendly but this was ridiculous.
Other lovely things to note about the hotel was the inspection permit in the elevator being expired by several months as well as a lovely gash in the roof in our shower (spent most of my shower hoping chunks of cement wouldn’t fall down on me as i bathed).
Do yourself a favor… AVOID THIS PLACE!!!

If you’re familiar with the quaint bed and breakfasts in the area, you’re probably cringing thinking about a Hampton Inn right in the middle of Flagler in New Smyrna Beach. As a frequent NSB’er, I can say we were very happy to stay here.
The staff was quickly accommodating to a few minor requests, the breakfast had a decent selection, and the rooms were nice.
Best of all is the distance to the beach (4 blocks /​right near the main downtown Flagler parking area /​pier) and ease of parking. Sometimes we stay with friends in the area, but we will definitely be back when that’s not an option.

Place is brand new. Nice location, good amenities and everything functions well. Terrific staff as well.

We stayed here for three nights. The hotel itself is new, well laid out, and only four blocks from the beach — an easy walk. The landscaping is lovely. The hotel is tucked into a number of old-​Florida buildings in the cute downtown. We were here on a motorcycle weekend (not our cup of tea) but it was still quiet in the room.
Our rating is due to what the hotel didn’t do well. First, the front desk is terribly disorganized. We were having a family reunion and the desk messed up our multiple reservations not once but four times! We had to talk to several desk managers to straighten it out. When we requested extra towels in our room, we had to ask at the desk three times and still had to pick them up ourselves. The public restroom near the meeting rooms had uncleaned handicapped toilets for over 36 hours. Same mess on the floor two days in a row.
Bottom line, hotel is a nice property but seems poorly managed. You can enjoy a nice stay but be forewarned.

I’ve stayed here a few times now. The location is perfect for walking shops, eating and beach as well as being very clean. The only thing I’ve noticed is the noise you can hear everything going on above you and in rooms around you the sound quality is not there at all other then that it’s a very nice place to stay.

Perfect Location and Amenities!
Overall I would have absolutely no trouble not only recommending this place but staying here again. The location is perfect. Your within walking distance of so many places to eat, shop’s, bars and of course the beautiful New Smyrna Beach. Just remember to stop and get your key first!

Really Nice hotel! it is walking distance from the new smyrna beach. the décor is bright and nice! it has the feel of the beach in the decoration. the rooms are also nice! did’t find anything to complain about. There was a really nice fragrance throughout the hotel! i forgot to ask them what it was :(. i’ll definitely recommend it.

Came to NSB for a wedding last weekend. The bride and groom reserved a wedding room block for out of town guests. Stayed a couple of nights. According to the locals, there isn’t any hotels in this area. The Hampton Inn was just built in November 2013. Let me tell you, the hotel was brand new and extremely clean. Upon check in, my husband and I were greeted by friendly receptionist. They had free complimentary cookies at the desk for us to munch on. The room had state-​of-​the art TV, showers, thermostat, etc. They even have this cool thing with the lights were you slip your room key card in a slot right by the door and then when you leave, you take the key out and it turns the lights off within 30 secs, so it saves energy and you don’t forget your room key. Pretty neat! The complimentary breakfast each morning was pretty decent. But there was no room service. The hotel is surround by great restaurants, bars, and the beach within minutes away. The hotel provides parking, however, the parking along the street is FREE! I’m from Miami, and free street parking is unheard of.
The one CON I’d like to point out is when I was sleeping, there was a green light that emitted from the thermostat that was keeping me awake. I need the room to be completely dark, so having this was a bit annoying. But we placed a band-​aid over the light and that solved the problem. But the hotel might want to look into that. Also, a white box next to the mattress that had a green light coming off of it too. Not sure, what it was but also annoying.

This place is a hidden gem! Located about a 5 – 7 minute walk from a beautiful beach, the Hampton Inn New Smyrna Beach is one of the best hotels I’ve been too. The customer service is what stood out the most. After arriving to the hotel around midnight I was very hungry. The front desk attendant was more than happy to offer suggestions and give me directions. The place he recommended was AMAZING. Each day the housekeeping staff left a personalized note and fresh towels. The beds were soft, pillows were abundant, continental breakfast far exceeded my expectations and the channel selection was tempting enough to make me rethink taking a walk to the beach. A must stay!

Hampton Inns may be in the «budget» tier of Hilton properties, but every so often we happen across one that’s just above and beyond the usual experience. This is one of those hotels.
Of course, it shares a lot with other Hampton Inns, including the toiletries, the contents of the free breakfast buffet, etc. But the hotel itself is beautiful, with architecture that fits right in with the surrounding environment and an inviting, open common area when you walk in.
It may be due to the newness of the building, but the bathroom in our room was larger and better appointed than what I’m accustomed to in Hampton Inn properties.
Of all of the Hilton properties I’ve ever personally been to, this is the first to use proximity key cards. You just hold the card up to the lock to gain entry to the room, rather than inserting it into the door. Then once inside, there’s a slot right by the door where you can insert the card. This turns on the lights in the room. When the card is removed from that slot, all lights are turned off after a couple minute delay. It’s a nice way to conserve energy without inconveniencing the customer, and the slot’s conspicuous location by the door ensures that you’ll never forget to take your card with you when you exit the room.
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful, and no one had any issue with us bringing our bicycles up to our room so they would have to sit out on the truck’s bike rack all night.
The icing on the cake? If you’re an HHonors member and you have some points laying around, you don’t have to pay the full amount in points. For example, at the time I booked, the per-​night cost was about $ 135, or 40,000 HHonors points if you wanted to use points. But there was a third option too; we were able to book a room for (18,000 HHonors points + $ 65) per night. If you’re low on points this is a great option to significantly reduce your room cost. This is an option that (as of this review) I’ve seen very rarely, and never before at a Hampton Inn.

This was a very nice property! The hotel was very clean and very nice looking. I have stayed at a ton of Hampton Inns due to work travels and this one was Definitely on the nicer side. The staff were very helpful and courteous. The rooms were nice and very clean. The beds and pillows were soft and comfortable to sleep in. The Bathroom was well stocked and felt like it was Sterilized just prior to me checking in based on how clean it was. The internet, which is complementary with your room stay, is pretty fast. It was a plus since the last couple of fancier and more expensive hotels I’ve stayed in had dreadfully slow internet. Breakfast was wonderful also. There were many great breakfast items to choose from like an assortment of breads, bagels and pastries as well as hot items like scrambled eggs, smoked sausage, fresh waffles and French toast sticks. Rates were very reasonable for a «Beach» property also. I would highly reccomend staying here if you are ever in the New Smyrna Beach area. You won’t be let down.

Stayed over Labor Day weekend. Loved it! Great value for the money. Terrific location. Didn’t move car once we arrived because so much in walking distance. Rooms clean, quiet, larger than usual hotel rooms. Staff friendly and helpful. Free wifi, coffeemakers in room, free breakfast. Free parking. Highly recommend!

I’ve stayed here twice and loved it both times. Spacious, clean and bright rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. And you can’t beat the location! The hotel is right on Flagler Ave., so you’re within walking distance to the beach, tons of bars and restaurants, shop, etc. Lastly, the free breakfast is pretty good, too. All in all, great value! And I will definitely be back.

This is a newer hotel and it shows. The interior is bright, clean and shows no wear at all. It also does not look like your average Hampton Inn. The developers did an excellent job of making it fit the beach town look. This affects the layout of the hotel a little, and makes it a bit confusing to navigate, but once you’re there a bit, you’ll be fine. The rooms were of average size and clean. There are no tubs– shower only.
Getting into the hotel is a little awkward. The driveway, while clearly marked is a one lane entryway, and if you’re not careful, you can miss it. Once in, the parking lot seems ample. However as we discovered later, with a full hotel, the lot fills up. At the end of the night we lucked into the last space in the lot, while others drove around looking. There is street parking, but I would not recommend it, unless you have no choice. When exiting, be careful. There is a one lane exitway, and street parking can block your view of oncoming traffic, while foliage makes it difficult to see some of the pedestrian traffic from the other direction.
The front desk staff was polite. We were initially placed in a room next to the elevator. I wish the staff had advised of this before we made the trek to the room. Upon arrival, the elevator noise noise, while muffled, was clearly audible and would have made for a disturbing night. You could hear the elevator operating and the «ding» when arriving at the floor was a little loud. Although we were initially told the hotel was full and no rooms were open, after a couple questions of the staff, we were advised there was a room available, albeit very close to an elevator.
As noted, the room is a nice, standard hotel room. The room was mostly quiet, but we could hear people above, as well as in the hall. Bedding was comfortable, with multiple pillows. The bathroom was spacious and the shower stall was large with a shower massage head. Towels were nice, soft and plentiful. There is a free breakfast available and complimentary wi-​fi was offered.
There are not a lot of hotel options in New Smyrna Beach. This is probably due to the large number of beachfront weekly vacation/​condo rentals which are available. Overall, the Hampton Inn is nice and a good choice for a short stay in New Smyrna Beach, particularly if you’re interested in seeing the town.

Newest place in New Smyrna, opened Dec 2012. Quite rooms, good breakfast. Off street parking, heated pool, friendly service. (housekeeping seemed a bit overwhelmed when we were there) Convenient to the beach, 3 block walk. Seems like the best place in town to stay for a few nights.
