What guests think

Hampton Inn & Suites Raleigh Downtown draws praise for friendly, helpful staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and a walkable, nightlife-rich location, while many reviews repeatedly warn about loud late-night music and street noise that can last until 2 a.m.

Breakfast is frequently described as good with decent variety. Common drawbacks beyond noise include the parking garage across the street, which some found dirty, confusing, or subject to a fee, and occasional maintenance or cleanliness lapses. Expect a convenient, lively base best for night owls rather than light sleepers.

I stayed here with my girlfriend for a weekend getaway to explore Raleigh’s nightlife, and the location was perfect! It’s within walking distance of some awesome spots — our first stop was Raleigh Beer Garden, which had great food and amazing service. The only downsides were that you can definitely hear the music from nearby bars/clubs in the room, which might bother light sleepers, and the extra $20 parking fee felt unnecessary. It would be nice if parking was included with the room. Overall, though, it was a great stay for a fun night out, and we loved being able to walk everywhere!

The lady that was working the front desk when we checked in was very friendly and helpful. They have a wine store connected where you can buy a bottle or glass and sit outside and drink it. The weather was beautiful so very enjoyable.

The property is in good condition, but it is extremely noisy due to the downtown activity. Also, the parking is across the street in a share parking deck. It was very confusing getting in the deck upon arrival. There's got to be away to make guest aware of the parking situation before arrival.

The hotel and staff were great! The parking garage across the street was not. Homeless guy camped out beside the elevators. The elevators themselves stink so bad like urine and very dirty. We were wondering who maintained the parking garage because they didn’t!

Here to drop off an incoming NCstate student. Location was 2 miles to campus. Comfortable room, staff was so friendly, plentiful breakfast with yummy birthday waffles, garage parking available for a fee. Front desk staff at check in let me know there were lots of bars in the area and to expect noise and that ear plugs were provided in room as well as white noise machine. I really appreciated the honesty and a heads up but was pleasantly surprised that I heard NOTHING on a Wednesday night and had a great nights sleep. Keep up the good work. Ya'll remind me of chic filet: efficient, excellent product, I know what to expect at every hampton and am never let down!

Desk staff was top notch- very helpful! One area of cleanliness and two for safety kept this from a 5-star review: Room closet had a musty smell; the front doors were not locked w/ room key access only as stated on a sign outside- when we entered shortly after midnight on two separate nights, we had people (guests? trespassers?) follow us inside- no issue w/ these people, but felt uncomfortable as no way of knowing if they belonged there or not; and one of the above nights, parking in the garage after midnight and having to drive to the uppermost deck to find a space, passed a party going w/about six young men drinking beer outside a couple of cars- as noted above upon entering the hotel, there was no incident w/these people, but a VERY uncomfortable feeling, especially since where we parked we were within sight of these men upon leaving our car. These issues with the front door and loitering in the garage NEED TO BE ADDRESSED.

Out of 3 elevators only 1 worked and was used by children playing on it most of the night. We couldnt enjoy the bar for kids running around everywhere. We tried to dine at the resturant but again ruined by kids and teens running thru the tables to get to the fountain drink machine. The pool had over 21 unsupervised kids squirting water guns and running everywhere. We ended up going to another venue by your shuttle van to enjoy some quiet time. This place was a disgrace and desk help did nothing to stop all this chaos.

This hotel is a make or break location. If you're a night owl, this is a great hotel. If you want a quieter location and if value sleep, this is NOT the hotel for you. As for the hotel and staff — great! Very clean, good AC, good breakfast, decent size gym and pool.

Stay was great! Enjoyed the privacy of my room. Location of hotel is perfect for those without a car, for you can walk to stores, pharmacies, bars and food joints within less than 20 minutes. In terms of cleanliness, bathroom shower could have used more detailed cleaning around the support handle and the top and bottom of shower door. Otherwise, room was very neat and clean and smelled wonderful!

Great hotel in the middle of the excellent, but loud, Entertainment District - Be warned. The Hotel actually provides earplugs and white-noise machines to every room, along with a sheet that basically warns you won't get any sleep there. I overheard the people in front of me requesting "the quiet side of the hotel," so I did also. Still loud. It's a party block.

The room was clean, beds were comfortable, and continental breakfast was well supplied with food. We were warned that it could get noisy from the restaurants around the hotel. It was noisy at night in the middle of the week from people talking, motorcycles revving, and cars cruising with loud music until 2 am. Ear plugs did not help. I believe that it would be worse on the weekends with more restaurants and people dining.
