Great hotel for business or vacation travel. The rooms are very clean and spacious. Despite being in at vacation destination it is very quiet after 9 pm. Staff are very friendly. The breakfast food is very typical but the culinary staff are super friendly. Definitely the best hotel accommodations in the area.

Modern Comfort with Thoughtful Amenities I had a great stay at the Hampton Inn Southport. The hotel itself was modern, clean, and comfortable throughout. My room was spotless and well-equipped, featuring a microwave, refrigerator, desk, and ample closet and drawer space. The spacious bathroom was stocked with plenty of clean towels, and there was generous room for baggage. I appreciated the abundance of outlets and USB ports—very convenient for charging devices. Room Comfort and Sleep Quality While the beds weren’t the most comfortable, the abundance of pillows helped make up for it. Overall, the room setup was functional and well thought out, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. Facilities and Extras The hotel offers a solid range of amenities, including a business center, a well-equipped gym, and on-site laundry with both coin and mobile payment options. The pool area was a highlight—decently sized with plenty of seating and towels available. It also featured an outdoor restroom and a cozy fire pit, which added a nice touch. Staff and Service Hotel staff were consistently friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even more pleasant. However, breakfast service was a notable weak point. While the offerings were fresh and included all the usual favorites—omelets, bacon, oatmeal, cereal, waffles, juice, fresh fruit—the attendant did not keep the food stocked. On both mornings of my stay, many families were left with only cereal as other items had run out. It seemed the attendant was focused on topping off condiments rather than replenishing the main dishes and guests were opening cabinets to search for cups and plates. Several families ended up leaving without breakfast. Final Thoughts Despite the breakfast hiccup, I would absolutely return and recommend this hotel. The overall experience was positive, and the combination of cleanliness, amenities, and friendly staff made it a worthwhile stay.

Stayed there this past weekend.. One of the cleanest hotels that I've ever stayed in. Top Notch service from the front desk. They even let us watch the UNC Duke game down in the lobby.. Breakfast and coffee were excellent also

Friendly staff! I was welcomed in with a goodie bag for my dogs and myself. My room was clean and comfortable. Best hotel stay I’ve had in a long time.

This was clean and in good condition, and the mattress had a sealed encasement on it which I love to see. And they seemed to take feedback from reviews because I saw someone dislike that breakfast was only served until 9 but now it's 10 (on a weekday morning), which I love. And there was chicken sausage with breakfast, which I saw a reviewer suggesting they add a non-pork meat to breakfast.

As a Diamond member with Hilton we often choose Hampton Inns because they offer a great value. This hotel is very clean and nice. The bed isn’t the most comfortable, but I slept fine. Pillows are great! The bathroom is very large! I LOVE that they have all the extra towel hooks and the hooks in the room. I think it’s great when a hotel will offer these extra little things for their guests. Towels were stocked as were wash cloths and hand towels. My charging port didn’t work on my right stand (will let them know upon checkout). Absolutely fantastic value for the price. 10 min drive to Oak Island where I ran my half marathon. Would totally stay here again if ever back in the area.
