I stay here 6-8 times per year for business up in the area. It is the best hotel in town, and don't let that take away from the property. it is kept up nice, the staff is wonderful, the free breakfast is pretty good, and it is nestled in a pretty area.
There are two things I dislike about this property:
1) they totally cheap out on the high speed internet. It is always slow (<1 Mbps). it doesn't matter if the property is busy or empty, the weather, wireless vs wired etc. It is just always slow. And I know fast internet is possible, because the hospital down the road has it - you just need to pay for it. and often times I try to wrap up my business early just to get back down to the valley and stay at a property with decenter internet. Good luck watching a video on cnn.com, or facetime constantly pauses/stutters.
2) 95% of the time they don't participate in any of the HHonors promotions (extra points, etc). This is another reason why I don't stay here more often.

For those of you who don't care about the above two items, you will be very happy here.

Not only one of the nicest places in the area, but by far one of the nicest hampton inn's I've visited. The hotel and rooms are kept impeccably clean and the staff is always friendly. While in town this last trip I had to send multiple fax’s and print info and Aubony at the front desk was nothing short of awesome. Not only did she help me with my every request, and I had quite a handful, she even pointed out that it seemed I missed a signature on one of the sheets I was sending. I can’t say enough good things about Aubony and this hotel. If you are coming to Pine Top or Show Low, stay here. The price is right and the amenities are excellent.

I have now stayed at this hotel several times and visit it close to every other week. The staff has been so pleasant and very helpful during my stay. They have done everything they can to give me an upgrade when possible, being that I am a diamond member. Whitney, Jenny and Liz have truly been so hospitable. They have helped me with internet issues, which have only happened once, ideas of best restaurants and directions to get there. They are just very pleasant to be around and very dedicated to helping their customers. Employees like this make it easy for me to return here each time I come here to work. The rooms are so clean and the noise level so low. I always feel respected when I come. The free breakfasts are great as well with great choices. I would definitely refer others to coming here when in Show Low. You will always feel welcomed and will receive great service. My only regret is that I am only here for 1 night at a time. Hopefully I will get snowed in sometime.

I just checked in for an 11 night stay on a business trip to Show Low for the Springerville Power Plant. The accomodations here are top notch, the view is great, and the staff is extremely courteous and professional. I requested to have a room with a specific location and ran into no hassle. I also forgot a needed accessory for my travel and the lady at the front desk immediately got it for me. Excellent hotel compared to the others I have stayed in for business. I look forward to the rest of my stay here.

If you are looking for a hotel that is scenic, comfy, and has a resort type feel for a decent price then look no further....

PS...Go for a third floor room with a view of the stream out back...nice, quiet, and secluded.
