Hampton Inn Memphis-Poplar

Fast and efficient check in. We arrived close to 10 p.m. on Christmas evening. The person at the front desk had a list of restaurants and pubs that were open. Very valuable as we were hungry and most places were closed.
The room was cean and updated. Breakfast was great. Anything from eggs and sausage to waffles to fruit & yogurt to cereal.
We would stay again if ever in the area.

This is what you expect from a Hampton Inn. We skipped the breakfast because they were exceptionally busy on a Saturday morning. The room was clean and comfortable. The area of town is fine to stay in.

Rooms are small and tight. The hotel is located off a busy street (popular)so noise is a factor, however the front desk service is great! The gals here are amazingly friendlier than any location I’ve stayed at and I stay at a lot…
Service is everything!

Filthy room. Killed lots of bugs. Will never stay here again. Bathroom was not cleaned well either.

I stayed here for a total of ten minutes. Not through the fault of anyone, but an act of the Big Guy upstairs. I pulled up after long day of travel and inspections to find a very bad thunderstorm had knocked out the power. I noticed this very fast when the firetrucks in the parking lot and the majority of the staff standing outside.
The one counter person I did speak with was very polite and took the time to speak with me when I asked what my options were when I figured that I would not be staying here for the evening.
«The Good»
— The staff interaction I had was polite and cordial given the situation.
«The Meh»
— I would have liked to have stayed here but next time :)
«The Bad»
— Nothing bad that I could comment on

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this Hampton. The location is central to numerous restaurants and shopping choices. My room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was typical Hampton. I was concerned when I checked in about the very limited fitness center (just a bike, treadmill, and eliptical) but that was quelled quickly. The hotel has an association with a full service gym (Dac Fitness) just down the road — all I had to do was show my room key in order to use the gym every day of my stay. The staff was friendly and provided excellent customer service — something lacking in many locations today. This will be my hotel if I return to Memphis in the future.

Wow. I’m REALLY surprised at all the negative reviews! This is our sixth road trip between Texas and Massachusetts, and we’re always looking to shave dollars off our quick, nine-​hour stays. This Hampton’s $ 89 rate is on the higher side of what we usually pay for a highway layover, but I still think it’s a pretty good deal. And we loved the accommodations: everything was very clean, staff was professional, no odd smells, very quiet, comfy beds, etc. The free breakfast had some nice touches as compared to the usual chain hotel fare, including a choice of light or dark roast coffee.
Anyway, I’m glad I didn’t read the reviews before staying here, because I wouldn’t have done it, and we would have missed out on a decent deal!

Awful!
After 50+ years of extensive traveling, i should have been more concerned when i saw the complimentry ear plugs on the night table. A first for me. Enough said??? Trains nearly shake you out of bed often and loud throughout the night.
Not up to the standards of most hampton inns. Very very small room. Old. Few outlets in room. Small desk pushed half into wall. No other chair in room.

Its ok, but I am a frequent visitor to Memphis. the staff is fine, but it simply lacks some amenities I desire (frig, microwave, etc). also, many of the rooms have bad elec. outlet schemes. The shower curtains are too short for the showers, this is dumb. So, the staff seems fine, but the managers made some poor decisions. The restaurant across the street (Newts, whatever) has good soups.
Oh yeah, Wifi is unpredictable and very slow

The rooms were decent, but I didn’t like how it was just a shower (no tub). Given there are other options in the area that are not much more expensive, I would go with one of those over this place.

We stayed here Memorial Day weekend 2011 and it was a great stay. The stay was top-​notch, the accommodations were exactly what we needed and expected, and we were close enough to the touristy areas to make the drive fairly short.
Two quick gripes: I don’t know why the pool was closed. It was hot outside and I could have used a nice dip in the pool. The free continental breakfast was a bit of a mess and they couldn’t keep up with the demand of the patrons.
We would definitely stay here again. It was an above-​average experience.

I am a huge fan of Hampton Inn because I have stayed at so many that each one is better than the last. This one is no different. Room was clean and didn’t smell bad. Plenty of towels in the room. Breakfast is free. I love the waffles.

If you recently lost a lot of your pubes send me an email. I found them… they’re in the bathtub of room 425.
