What guests think

At Hampton Inn Cornelia, guests repeatedly praise friendly service and solid breakfasts, while ongoing renovations and frequent elevator outages shape much of the experience, leaving some areas dated and a few public spaces and rooms feeling worn.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed, with many clean stays contrasted by reports of stained carpets, mildew, and housekeeping lapses. Rooms vary from spacious and quiet to dated with hard mattresses and minor maintenance issues. The location is convenient to restaurants and attractions, though access can be confusing due to nearby roadwork and layout. Best for practical stays where function matters more than polish.

In desperate need of a deep clean and refreshing. Elevator broken, ice machine on 3rd floor broken, leaking toilet, worn out luggage carts, sticky floors and carpet. Bed was okay and desk attendant was friendly.

Our room was clean and spacious for our family of 5. Linens and towels were new and clean. Bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the new shower. Breakfast food variety was great. The dining lady was friendly but the first floor was being renovated. The bench seats were sinking in when I sat in one at the booths. It was nice to have a TV to watch there too. The receptionists were nice. Parking was small and limited at night. Overall we will come back again next time.

Felt for the staff they were fantastic but they were battling a number of issues. Lift was broken (and looked like it was a long term issue) had to use service lift to get to room, wifi was down all day, pool was locked (at 6pm appears it hadn’t been unlocked that morning. Rooms very old/tired. Saving grace was the awesome staff/service and the free cooked breakfast

A nice place to stay: we felt safe. Our room was nice and clean. Breakfast was a good variety. i liked the text correspondence with manager. I requested clean towels for our second night through text and was promptly answered and serviced. Our bed wasn't made up but I don't know if that is a new thing occurring since Covid? At the time of our visit, the elevator was not working but we had access to the service elevator which worked just fine.

What a great relief to find a clean, friendly and welcoming atmosphere after having to leave the Baymont by Wyndham in Cornelia due to uncleanliness, minimal breakfast and false advertisement. The breakfast was amazing and the gym was top notch. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Thank you again!

The room was spacious. Unfortunately, the cleanliness, or lack thereof, was not up to standards. When I went to use the restroom, I had to clean poop off the seat. The shower walls were dirty, and when I went to bed, there was a sticky substance (gum?) on the headboard. When I told the very friendly CSR at the desk, she apologized.

Once we saw the filthy room we checked out. The clerk was very polite about allowing us to do so. The couch was covered in disgusting stains, the carpet was filthy and the shower was rusted and the walls were discolored and looked dirty. The room should not be rented until renovated.

This hotel is in the process of being renovated. What was done was beautiful and very comfortable. Unfortunately, we had an older room, and the shipping crates were right outside our window and we were by the door where the workers were coming in so it was not very pleasant. The hotel staff are second to none, the breakfast was amazing, and like I said, what was done was top notch. This hotel is in a great location to many local attractions and restaurants. We would definitely stay here after the reno is complete!

Not the nicest hampton inn we've stayed at. The decor was very old and outdated. The carpet was visibly dirty and had many stains. The beds were terrible flimsy mattresses. Breakfast was 'standard' for a 2 star hotel - some cereal, bread options, waffle maker, yoghurt cups etc.

The staff at this Hotel does go the "extra mile" to help their guests and it was extremely appreciated!!!

The hotel is being renovated so breakfast was in a room, which meant there wasn’t enough space for people to eat. However, the hotel provided trays so that you could take your food to your room. The staff was really nice and kind. All in all a really great stay and we would stay again.

Overall we had a pleasant stay and would stay here again!

The hotel was under renovations. We were never told, the noise and smell of paint were terrible. Our room was so dirty, a bug in our bed and we had to put our own blanket on the couch to sit. The hallway rugs were so stained. Breakfast was terrible. Hot food was barely warm, the pancake mix came out runny and black! The orange juice was warm. The entire experience was subpar and when asked about it to management they just said yeah it’s all bad. Would never recommend this hotel!
