The Outstanding Staff and Management!!!
Everyone, from the wonderful housekeeping staff (Gloria, Susan, Crystal and Lara to name a few) to the lovely dining room ladies ( many thanks to Irene for being so terrific, and to Donna for working so hard and being so cheerful, even at 4am) and to the worlds BEST front desk staff: Cool, calm Cobi, an angel named Angelique, phone chaser and kleenex giver Andrew, information expert and fellow- foodie Nykeisha and all the others who work very hard but make it look like its effortless and so much fun!!! You made our holidays very enjoyable and memorable.....so for sure....we'll be back....

It is a good hotel, and just what you expect from a Hampton Inn. The staff however, was amazing. They consistently went above and beyond to make our stay fantastic. From the front desk to the cleaning staff to the valet service, everyone was very pleasant. The hotel is in a great location and close to all the bars and food you could want in downtown St. Pete.

I can tell that everything was great at Hampton Inn and Suites. The bedrooms were extremely clean, very good sized, with nice furniture. I used the laundry facilities and they're very good and inexpensive (1 dolar each - washing - drying). Good breakfast and manager's reception. The location is marvelous, downtown, near the pier, the Dali museum. I'd sure recomend and stay there again.

We stayed here two nights to visit family and sight see. We loved the location, valet was very pleasant and our car was kept safe & was ready as soon as we needed it. The room was comfortable however lacked an exhaust fan in the bathroom and both the toilet & tub had trouble draining. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was good except it lacked any child friendly cereals. Our only dislikes were the constant car alarms at night, noise from a party in the banquet hall went well into the second night and housekeeping vacuuming the hallways & knocking on guest doors at 8am on a Saturday morning was not appreciated. Make sure you put your privacy sign out!!!!!
