Pros:

The only thing good was the location for the sporting event that I was attending.

Cons:

Please read this review before you book at this location. **** the one thing that they don't tell you about this place until you arrive is that you have to pay $25 a day to park at this facility. Because the only way to park is by using their valet service.There is no other place to park at all***** nowhere i'm booking.com or even the hilton website, do they inform you that you will be charged?Twenty five dollars a day for parking to stay at this Hotel. That is just wrong, also, the people that are parking. Your cars look and smell like they've never seen a shower in months, they have zero compassion for the people that are blindsided by being told that they have to use this service in order to park because there is no other place to park.
Also the juice machine has been broke for a long time, the pillows are the worst, the rooms walls are very thin.And you can hear all noises at all times of night. There is more to complain about not one thing was good during the stay. I have stayed at many many Hamptons all over the U.S. and this is the worst by far. I WILL NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN, will not recommend to anyone to stay here and I will be contacting the Corporate HQ on this matter.

We had a very nice stay - we will visit again.
Pros:

The staff, including both valets, were very kind and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

Cons:

The breakfast was OK. My daughter is gluten-free, and although there was gluten-free bread, it was the only option and it had shared tongs with the regular bread, thus cross-contamination. 🫤 Also, the television cable kept flickering in and out as we were watching a show.

Only one chance to make a first impression.
Pros:

Let me start by saying that but for three initial interactions with staff this would be 4 or 4.5 star review. This hotel is in a brilliant location. It was very clean, and the breakfast was a notch or two above the usual Hampton Inn breakfast. My interactions with the housekeepers and breakfast staff were outstanding.
I checked in on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, and I checked out on Saturday, June 13, 2026.
My first negative interaction was with a valet. I understand these are contract employees, but nonetheless I don't think that after a long drive I needed to be yelled by a valet that "This is valet parking only." I am perfectly capable of reading the signs. The valet was about 15 feet away. He could have come over and greeted me. But no.
My second negative interaction was with the valet that took my key. I was hardly acknowledged. He said his spiel, asked a couple of key questions, and took my key. On the other hand the valet that retrieved my car when I left was very pleasant and personable.
My third negative interaction was with a the desk clerk at check in. Again, I did not feel welcomed in, she was not very personable, and I was not greeted as an Honors Member.
One final item. The non-slip shower mat as incredibly small. It was about the size of a large place mat. Once you put it down you are not going to be moving around.
I realize that Hampton Inn is lower end Hilton product but it it still a Hilton.

Location, location, location
Pros:

We chose the Hampton Inn because it was downtown near the pier. The location was perfect, right on Beach Drive and just off Central Ave. It was perfect for walking to most of the museums downtown. Lots of restaurants along Beach Dr and the St Pete Pier. Valet parking is $25/night. Just call ahead when you want your car. I love Hampton Inns for their breakfasts, especially the waffles. This one was a bit smaller than some others, but it was fine. They had two flavors for waffles. I was told housekeeping would be every other day, but they appeared each day during our stay which was a nice surprise. The staff at the front desk was very friendly.

We had a suite on the third floor with a balcony. The room was comfortable. The balcony was small by comparison. Our room felt updated and the bathroom was nice. Overall, a very nice stay.

Pros:

There were lots of choices for breakfast
The valet service for our car was great & affordable

Cons:

We usually stay in hotels like this one , but for lots less money. Spending over $200 a night for a chain hotel was not a good value. Our friends found other nice hotels a lot cheaper. In fact our room was not cleaned the first of our 3 nights.
But I guess it was in St Petersburg.

Pros:

При поселении мне сообщили что номер не оплачен, хотя бронировал на Booking и мне пришло подтверждение. Отель потребовал оплатить и я был вынужден повторно оплатить.

Great location, but overpriced.
Pros:

Even though breakfast opened a half hour late, the young man was very competent, frying bacon perfectly and everything was delicious, including the eggs. Coffee was good. Location of the hotel was why we chose it. Excellent. Staff were friendly. Beds were comfortable. Desk had charging outlets. Mini fridge was appreciated, and used.

Cons:

Shower temperature was not warm, no matter what we did. The shower control rotated around, and it took minutes to find a position that would shut it off after showering. Shower showed its age.
Breakfast was a half hour late opening
Didn't care for valet parking.
Hated the TV controls, finding programs was a hassle.

The best location in St. Pete
Pros:

The location is great; car drop off.

Cons:

Car pick up in a driving rainstorm was chaotic. It was basically -- your car is across the street. Get wet brother. Given the expensive nightly charges to park, it would be nice not to go to the airport completely drenched.
