I recently stayed at this Hampton Inn and would say the experience was just okay. The staff was friendly, and the basics were covered, but some areas felt a bit worn and out of sorts. That said, I understand they’re currently undergoing renovations, so it makes sense that things aren’t quite up to the usual Hampton standards just yet. Looking forward to seeing the updates next time around!

Friendly Staff

This was one of the best hotel experiences we've had in a while. The facility is great, and they were renovating areas to make it even better. What won me over was the service at the desk. Will was the worker who helped us check in. He was fantastic. Just the nicest guy. He helped and accommodated some requests we had. We were in walking distance to so much on the main road. My kids loved the free cookies and drinks throughout the day. Thank you for making our trip so good!

Everything was great till breakfast, are was being updated and a bus load of kids were sitting in small eating area waiting for bus, was not room to even get close to breakfast food, had to leave and go down the street to eat, we felt the management should have taken control and moved kids away from eating area. Otherwise everything was good

This property was a bit higher in proce but it was clean with friendly staff. I appreciated the free coffee and tea available at all times. I also felt the location was perfect for exploring Helen. Most shops were within walking distance which was wonderful considering the parking lots were pay to park in town.

I request a refund, hotels.com has not returned it

After making a reservation, I arrived at the hotel with my family and to my surprise they told me that there was no room available and they left us in the cold night without a room. I am waiting for my money back. I requested a document proving that they did not give me the room and they only gave me a zero bill.

the whole hotel needs an overhaul

Room and bathroom were clean except for green gummy bear on the carpet. Hallway carpet had big stain near the stairs. Mattress was very uncomfortable and gave my husband and I severe back aches. The biggest problem was the cable went out about 8pm and did not come back on before we left the next am. We called twice to the front desk and the second time the front desk lady said that it would not be fixed until the next day {our departure day}. She was kind enough to discount our room stay 30%. Our hotel of choice for the last 3 years had been Hampton Inn so we have been happy with the chain until this visit to Helen Georgia. The hotel needs an overhaul and as soon as possible. The staff were all very nice and polite.

Don’t Book Here!!!

This should not be considered a Hampton hotel it was old and disgusting. There was hair all over the sheets and pillow case I went to the desk and told them the sheets were never changed I put four sheets down on the bed so I could sleep but was grossed out. The manager gave me a full refund
