We enjoyed another stay at Hampton Inn , even though it rained our short 3 days we were there on vacation. Perfect short walk to the beach, clean rooms and friendly staff.Loved our pretty pink hotel and relaxing in the jacuzzi!!

We arrived in Destin for two nights on route to New Orleans. We chose this hotel because of price and we got the king studio suite. The room was ok, a bit dated, but the bed was comfortable. However we had just come from a brand new hotel the night previous so I guess its unfair to compare but in terms of bench marking the room is definitely in need of some updating. 

Our room came with a fridge, microwave, table, sofa so that was great to store drinks and have some where to sit down and relax with a cold beverage after a long day out in the heat. The only complaint was the TV reception was poor which is unacceptable for today's standards. 

The hotel is close to the outlet shopping prescient and other shopping amenities/stores. It's also close to the beech apparently walking distance but we drove due to the heat. 

The one thing to highlight is the breakfast service provided is excellent, I'm not used to US hotels including free breakfast but this was a great bonus. There is also free wi-fi!! (perhaps this is common in most US hotels but back in Europe/UK there is usually a fee). 

If you need somewhere convenient, value for money then I would highly recommend. When we stayed there was quite a lot of family's so I guess this must be popular choice. 

This hotel and the staff was very friendly. Our room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good with a good variety to choose from. I as an online TA saw only one thing I feel needs changing and that is the business area needs to be in a small room for privacy. If you are checking you emails are do some type of business on the computer everyone can see your business. If you plan on shopping and the outlets they across the road from the hotel. Now, most of the activities are in Destin, near the harbor. I you forgot something Wal-mart has a section for you from beach item too souvenirs etc. for less the cost at the other stores. The traffic is slow going after 2pm on Hey 98W. Lastly gas cost less at Wal-mart. We plan on going back in the future with family and friends.

Okay, here are the basics! Pros: Modern decor in lobby, eat in area & room decor was pretty nice as well. Next to plenty of shops & restaurants. Free continental breakfast. A couple of turns & you're at the beach (tip-from hotel turn left on 98, turn left on Miramar beach & that takes you to main road that runs along the beach)
Cons: it took a couple of turn arounds to find the entrance to hotel(tip- turn in ihop parking lot), no sanitizer to wipe down exercise equipment, although omlets available I kind of wanted just plain scrambled eggs & bacon.
