Bottom Line
This 141-room Hampton Inn sits in a group of other hotels right on the Virginia Beach boardwalk. The budget-friendly property offers what appears to be the standard in this part of town, including rooms with balconies that face the ocean, a free buffet breakfast, and an indoor pool. The hotel is a bit worn with bland, chain-like decor and rooms can get noise from the beach, but the on-site 11th St Taphouse Bar & Grille serves good food and has an outdoor patio on the boardwalk. Travelers might also want to check out the nearby Comfort Inn & Suites Oceanfront, which has similar amenities including a sunny pool area, and often lower rates, though no restaurant.

Scene
Budget-friendly chain hotel with a subtle beach atmosphere, but showing signs of age
Guests at this Hampton Inn are greeted in a small lobby with a slight beach vibe courtesy of decor that includes sand-colored, sponge-painted walls, a light blue wall behind the front desk, and a model sailboat displayed on a wooden table. The hotel is an older property that’s worn in spots and shows its age, but overall, interiors are pleasant, if bland and chain-like. The breakfast room is bright and offers banquette seating, small tables, and a long communal wooden table. There's also an on-site restaurant with a nice covered patio that offers views of the water.
Location
Beachfront location right on the boardwalk, surrounded by shops and restaurants
The entrance to the hotel sits on Atlantic Avenue, surrounded by other oceanfront hotels and souvenir shops, with the busy boardwalk right behind it. The surrounding area offers plenty of dining options, bars, and shops. There are several attractions a short drive away, such as the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Arts (seven-minute drive) and the Virginia Aquarium (five-minute drive), while the Virginia Beach Convention & Visitors Bureau is a six-minute drive away. The Norfolk International Airport is a 25-minute drive away.
Rooms
Rooms face the ocean and have balconies; decor is bland and dated, with updated bathrooms.
The hotel’s 141 rooms and suites all face the ocean and have large balconies furnished with chairs. Decor is simple and pleasant, but bland, with teal carpeting, beige walls, and basic wood furniture. Bathrooms are spacious and somewhat more up-to-date, with long freestanding vanities, mirrors in silvery frames, and curtained shower/tub combos, along with hairdryers. All rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, coffeemakers, microwaves, and work desks. Suites add living areas with plain upholstered couches and coffee tables. Travelers should note that some guests complain of noise from the beach, and there have been some reports of cleanliness issues.
Features
Indoor pool, fitness center, restaurants, and freebies including hot breakfast and Wi-Fi
The hotel serves a free buffet breakfast with hot items such as eggs, bacon, waffles, cereals, and fruit. Free coffee is available in a small area off the lobby. The on-site 11th St Taphouse Bar & Grille serves pub grub such as burgers and wings for lunch and dinner, and has an outdoor patio overlooking the water. There is an indoor pool and an attached fitness center with a few cardio machines and some free weights. Business travelers are catered to with three meeting rooms and a business center with two desktop computers and a printer, plus Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel.
