Hampton Inn Sarasota-I-75 Bee Ridge

Hotel was clean and staff was friendly and helpful. The ac was a little loud kicking on and off and the noise from the hwy made it hard to sleep for us. But the pool was warm definitely heated and the hot tub was HOT!! Convenient location with restaurants in walking distance

I am disappointed with my stay at this location. One of the front desk agents was very helpful at check-in, and the room was clean. However, the fridge did not work, the bathroom sink handle was loose, the A/C turned off and on loudly multiple times, the toilet constantly ran, and the room smelled musty. They did repair the sink on the second day. The hallways were very loud with people were running up and down the hall and holding loud conversations all hours of the night and in the parking lot. The digital key in the Hilton app worked sporadically, and I am glad I requested a physical key to get into my room. Internet was spotty, and I frequently had to log back in to the network. I would not return to this location.

This Hampton Inn definitely hurts the Hilton brand. I've stayed here before., once while it was being renovated and two previous stays after the renovation. First, this hotel is very conveniently located off I-95 in Sarasota, with two good options for dining within the area of the hotel. This hotel is a short 10 minute drive from the UTC Mall with loads of good dining and shopping options. This is where it ends...The cheap shabby renovation leaves one with the feeling of "glad I only booked one night. The staff is disinterested that you chose this Hampton and the morning desk person looked a wreck and really was left me wondering what Hampton Inn owner would hire such a person. This hotel did not provide half and Half at breakfast, There was only the unhealthy, crappy tasting, non dairy creamer, the kitchen person did not speak a word of English, so I asked the person at the desk about this item that every Hampton I've stayed has. She gave me the absurd and outlandish, not to mention intelligence challenging answer that the increased cost of half and half prohibited the hotel from serving this. Are you serious, the rates at this hotel are well over S200.00 per night for a minimal king room. Given the raised rates, the cost of half and half (which by the way is about the same price of the non dairy creamers) cannot really be the reason for not providing this product . So perhaps you'll remove butter from the menu next. This person cannot be qualified in this position. Given the flimsy motel ambience, the poor inattentive staff and foolish excuses for shortcomings, stay somewhere else. There are many better options nearby. As a Hiltom Honors member, Hamptons like this shake my confidence in the Hilton brand.

Minimal room for high cost. Front desk never attended with no bell to call. Had to yell to get someone every time. Low ceiling lobby area. Trash and amenities every other day. Restaurants are nearby and fairly easy to access. You can do better.

We had a great stay during the week of Hurricane Milton. We took refuge at the hotel as it was 10 miles from the water and across from Doctors hospital and on the same power circuit - which came in useful as power went out but was restored within a few hours by FPL. We liked our room, the breakfast that was included had a great selection and we thought the coffee was some of the best. Of note was the staff , everyone was very helpful and nice- it was a very friendly atmosphere in the foyer and outside by the front door. Would defiantly book again.
