Hampton Inn Raleigh-Capital Blvd North

The property has been under renovation since February 3, 2025, with work expected to continue through Q4 2025. Unfortunately, it appears they have not yet made it to my room (328) — and housekeeping certainly hasn’t. I did receive my digital key at noon, which was convenient. However, upon entering the room none of the living room table lamps worked. After spending nearly ten minutes trying different switches, I eventually removed a bulb from the bedroom lamp to test it — only to discover that both living room table lamp bulbs were blown. What are the odds? Light issue solved, but the inconvenience remains. Next, I moved the desk slightly to see the TV better only to find that the front left desk leg was broken and merely propped up to look intact. To add to it, the desk chair’s lift mechanism is stuck, so it does not raise or lower. I am sitting almost on the floor. Still trying to remain positive, about an hour later I went to microwave my Shane’s BBQ ribs — and opened the microwave door to find a moldy sandwich with mayonnaise sitting on a paper plate. Absolutely disgusting. Clearly housekeeping failed miserably in preparing this room (328). The best part of the room is the bed — unquestionably one of the most comfortable I have slept in. Overall, this stay was disappointing. As a former Diamond member, I have never encountered so many blown lightbulbs, broken furniture, or a forgotten moldy sandwich in a microwave.

I would actually rate this a 2.75. I stayed here using my points for one night because it was the lowest in the area I needed. I read the reviews beforehand, knew there was room refurbishments going on. Originally I had an old room on the first floor, walked in and the body odor/musty smell was sickening. There was no way they should be allowing people to stay in these nasty rooms. They very graciously moved us to a room on the 5th floor, in a newly refurbished room. Which was nice, clean, and no smell. It looks like all rooms on the 5th floor, and 1/2 the rooms on the 4th floor have been completed. However, I’ve stayed in hotels that have renovations going on (like why are these taking so long?) and I think this hotel is like 20 years past due. The elevator is crazy sketchy, glitches and shakes and makes crazy noises. To the point where I was using the stairs to the 5th floor. The hotel grounds are not kept up to Hilton’s standards. The whole place is just a little too shady for me. The staff was kind of friendly, they definitely weren’t rude, but not super friendly like staff I’ve encountered at other Hilton brand hotels. As far as cleanliness…eh…I mean our room was fine. I wasn’t overly confident eating their breakfast. The lounge area in the lobby of the hotel is so old, and the carpet everywhere except on the refurbished floors is absolutely gross. So, maybe when they are done fixing up this hotel in another 10 years it’ll be ok, but right now, maybe stay somewhere else?? There are lots of options in Raleigh! I think the owner of this particular hotel is just trying to get these renovations done on the cheap.

Ok… It was just average. The rooms were minimal, they did have a nice breakfast everyday and was till about 10am. The all day coffee was fresh time we got it. Wish they had gluten free cookies with the other cookies they put out.

Great

This Hampton seriously needs an upgrade. Breakfast was decent and most of staff were friendly, but the property is way past needing attention.

Le petit buffet déjeuner est très bien, endroit agréable.
