Hampton Inn

Hampton Hotels, Hampton Inn, Hampton Inn & Suites, and Hampton by Hilton are the names of a brand of hotels trademarked by Hilton Worldwide. Most Hampton hotels are independently owned and operated by franchisees, though a few are owned and/or managed by Hilton Worldwide. Hotels marked Hampton Inn & Suites offer suites in addition to the standard rooms found at a Hampton Inn. Most Hampton Hotels (except the new Hampton Boutique Hotels) are considered limited-service hotels as they do not offer an on-site restaurant or amenities such as bell services and concierge found at full-service hotels. The Hampton hotel brand primarily caters to the budget-minded business and leisure traveler. As of October 2011, the chain comprises more than 1,800 hotels. An overwhelming majority of Hampton's properties are located in the United States however, international locations include Canada, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, and the United Kingdom where the chain operates under the name Hampton by Hilton. Hampton by Hilton locations offer additional services like an onsite bar as well as limited lunch and dinner services.

Hampton Hotels are characterized by the 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. In 1989, Hampton became the first national hotel brand to offer such a promise. It states: "Friendly service, clean rooms and comfortable surroundings every time. If you’re not satisfied, we don’t expect you to pay. That’s our commitment & your guarantee. That’s 100% Hampton."

Famous quotes containing the words hampton and/or inn:

    Asking a working writer what he thinks about critics is like asking a lamp-post what it feels about dogs.
    —Christopher Hampton (b. 1946)

    The repose of sleep refreshes only the body. It rarely sets the soul at rest. The repose of the night does not belong to us. It is not the possession of our being. Sleep opens within us an inn for phantoms. In the morning we must sweep out the shadows.
    Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)
