This was our third stay at this Hampton Inn. We stay here when we visit our son in Old Fort. This Hotel is a cut above many of the Hamptons that we have stayed at. The staff is friendly and efficient. They decorate the place all year long. Christmas decorations are really very nice. We have always stayed in the Junior Suites and they are roomy with a small frig and microwave. Our granddaughterstays with us so that she can swim in the indoor pool (open until midnight).

The hotel was recommended by the business I was visiting in the area.

The hotel was clean, and had all the amenities of typical Hampton Inn. There were a lot of snacks provided in the afternoon, like cookies and popcorn.

This is a very good hotel for a business traveler with a car since none of the restaurants are within walking distance. There are a few nearby restaurants that deliver to the hotel.

I recommend calling the hotel before heading out to find out the exact location because the map is incorrect. (It will put you about 5 miles off.)

On a recent visit to the mountains, my husband and I were checking on different options for future vacations. We looked at camping cabins and other such options. Then we checked into the Hampton Inn at Marion and found it to be the nicest place! In traveling for his work , he has stayed in many different hotels and inns, and this one surpassed them all. The rate we got was better than that offered online for a room with a king sized bed in a non-smoking room. It was the most comfortable bed we had ever slept on, with very comfortable pillows. The staff was also very helpful. I think anyone would enjoy their stay at this hotel. I might also add that I won't be looking at any more camping options with such luxury so close to so many local attractions.

Stayed at the Hampton Inn-Marion while on state business. The hotel staff were very cordial. The hotel has the usual Hampton amenities in their free breakfast and large lobby area. A couple of extras at this hotel include an indoor pool open until midnight and a fitness center open 24 hours. My room looked a bit dated with unfortunate wallpaper, but the furnishings and bed were fine. The room and bathroom seemed very clean. The television had a plentiful 50-60 channels, and the room came with a microwave and refrigerator that I did not expect to have. The hotel sits adjacent to I-40 but is positioned perpendicular to the roadway, so the traffic noise is minimal. There is very little in this immediate area, but a short 3-4 mile drive into the nearby town of Marion will allow you to access grocery stores, Wal-mart, fast food, and some local restaurants. This is actually a very good location for vacationers, since you can get on the Blue Ridge Parkway just about 20 miles north of the hotel and explore some of the highest peaks on the east coast including Mount Mitchell. Lake James is nearby to the east, Black Mountain and Asheville are about 30-40 minutes west, and the Lake Lure-Chimney Rock area is about 30 minutes southwest. For the low price, this hotel offers a very good deal indeed.
