The staff at Hampton Inn in Helen were extremely helpful and personable. They went beyond expectations, even making sure fresh cookies were available when we returned for the evening. The breakfast was not as extensive as other Hampton Inn locations, but the food was hot and fresh. Our stay there was very pleasant.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hampton Inn in Helen, the location was great, right on the Chattahoochee River and not a far walk to restaurants, parks, shopping, and the mountain coaster. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast and the cookies that were served daily in the lobby. I liked the swings and benches that were placed down by the river, it was a great place to relax. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The facility was a little aged but overall it was a great stay.
