We used to really enjoy staying here because they offer free breakfast the rooms are very comfortable and it is very close to where my sister and parents live. They just renovated their rooms which would presumably make staying here more pleasant. However they have not kept up with the room repairs. We walked into a room with a broken closet door(crack running through the glass), a broken shower door(it would not move), and a broken room door(would turn green but you had to jimmy the door to get it to open). I am very irritated because we only asked them to fix the main door while we were out of the room, and they didn’t. One final note — the free breakfast is beyond abysmal and not worth eating …

Very clean and comfortable Hampton. Newer bathrooms and very comfortable beds. Plenty of hot water, as well. Very friendly staff and quick to answer questions with a smile. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.

It’s been over 5 years since I last stayed here, but last month I stayed here for another business trip and I have to say I am impressed at how nice this hotel still is. The hotel, grounds, and rooms are so clean and the staff is super great here; always asking how your stay is going and telling you about stuff going on around town. And in the mornings they have a nice hot breakfast buffet with varying choices each day; and they also have waffles, breads, pastries, and cereal. The restaurant next door, The Islander, offers a free glass of house wine for each night you stay at the Hampton. Hampton also has a shuttle that will take you around the island and pick you up.

I had an absolutely flawless stay here a few weeks ago. The room was spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The décor was perfect– not outdated at all. The lobby was very nice. The staff were outstanding and very friendly. Breakfast was great, included, and offered variety(I would suggest adding bacon). The location is quiet and I got a great night’s sleep. I was here on business and the location is kind of out of the way from the main attractions on the Charleston peninsula and beaches, but the quality of the stay here for what you pay compared to very expensive rates in the city and on the beach makes me recommend the Daniel Island Hampton Inn even for tourists.

This was our first of the two hotel we stayed at in Charleston. I was booking the hotel for my friends wedding a bit late and the special block and rate he reserved at the closer Hampton Inn in Mt. Pleasant was done. At first I booked what I thought was a good deal with a beach hotel on the Isle of Palms … then I saw the reviews on Unilocal and immediately cancelled them. After carefully researching options, I settled on the Daniel Island Hampton Inn. I got a great online rate for prepaying(although it was non-cancellable) and the location provides easy access to points of interest that are on the north side of Charleston. As noted by other reviewers, this hotel is very close to the Family Circle Cup stadium, and is probably SLAMMED when that event is being held. But for our post-Thanksgiving weekend stay, it was nice and peaceful. The room was mostly OK — the only issue was the toilet, which had a wonky handle that needed to be fixed, and wasn’t very secure.(i.e. it would wobble when you sat on it.) But other than that, the bed was comfy, the room was clean, the TV worked, and the bathroom was of decent size. Like most Hampton Inn’s, there isn’t an onsite restaurant, and there wasn’t one within walking distance. But there is a good selection of bars and restaurants not far away. And the infamous Hampton Inn complimentary breakfast was surprisingly good. We stayed there three days, and some days were better than others, but points for changing up some of the offerings so that it never got stale. In future visits to the area I’ll likely opt for staying in downtown Charleston, simply because it provides easy walking access to a lot of cool things to do. But if I were staying in another area of town, I’d be happy to stay here again.

I stayed here in April 2012 for two weeks while I was starting a new job with a business right around the corner. This place has a washer and dryer, plenty of televisions in the lobby and they server a business-style breakfast every morning. The room was clean and I never had a problem while staying there for such a prolonged stay. The staff was always friendly and helpful. The only complaint that I have was when I stayed the Family Circle Cup was in town and me visiting Charleston for the first time, I wanted to explore Charleston during the weekend. That wasn’t possible because their shuttle refused to leave the Daniel Island area during the Family Circle Cup. So, I was stranded on the island. That didn’t make me happy at all during the weekend space that I was there for work where I could have explored all that downtown Charleston had to offer. There is a rumor that Charleston is known for its culinary delights in old town Charleston. For me, perhaps I will never know what that is like. Again, the staff and the hotel are great and well managed. It is just the policy during the Family Circle Cup that really upset me.

This wonderful hotel is the most accommodating establishment I have ever stayed at. They saved the day by allowing us to tailgate in the parking lot before the rugby match. They also catered to our every need and want. I couldn’t be more pleased. 6 stars!

I enjoyed the stay. Outstanding shuttle, friendly and helpful. My room was the last one down the hall way. No WiFi in room. Downstairs no problem. Their business center was great for Internet connection and work space. Just a great stay.

Very nice room. Fridge, microwave flat screen tv, king bed, clean fresh sheets and clean duvet! Room smells a lil musty tho. Over all this is def a good hotel for the money. The lobby ladies room is spotless and that of a 4 star hotel. The staff is pleasant.

Hampton Inn remains one of my favorite hotels. This one is surrounded by a newer community. There is a restaurant next door(Queen Anne’s Revenge) which I really liked(guitarist on the patio when I was there).

Beautiful Hampton property with nice, clean fixtures, HD tv, and large lobby area. The lobby is really top notch for a Hampton, much more spacious than you’d expect. The staff was helpful and they had 2 bottles of water and some Doritos waiting for me in my room. Even though they have HD tvs, I didn’t see any HD channels though. This is a pricier stay as far as Hampton’s go, but you’re also in a really nice area. Go for a jog around the neighborhoods and you’ll see some beautiful houses. The front desk staff warned me to watch for alligators if I was going near the ponds — thankfully, I didn’t see any!
