At 10:07pm on 02/14/26, I went into the lobby to call an Uber, something I'd done many times before. An older woman without a name tag asked why I was there. After I explained, she told me not to hang around in the lobby and said “just this once,” then insisted I wait outside. She also said, “it’s not that cold outside.” It was still pretty cold, and I felt safer sitting inside. I went back in to find a manager's card because I wanted to complain. I'd picked up the wrong one, a sales manager's card for the hospitality company, so I returned it and asked for a general hotel manager's card. They only had sales cards. When I asked for a manager's card and their names, they wouldn't give me a number or any other way to contact them. She said, “I’m not giving you their cellphone number! You’ll have to come back and talk to them then!” Then she asked, “have you ever worked for a hotel before?” in a rude, condescending tone. I politely pointed out how rude she was, but instead of apologizing, she said, “well, I’ll continue to be rude if you’re going to keep coming back in here”. I walked away, and she kept spewing venom. I sat on a wooden bench outside to wait for my Uber and noticed her watching me from the lobby, pacing back and forth and standing by the door as though I'd done something wrong. I had considered staying at this location for a long period, but that won't happen now. People who treat others horribly for no reason shouldn't be in customer service.

The room was clean and great, and the location is hard to beat for the price. Breakfast was amazing, and the staff were the friendliest I've encountered in a long time. I loved my stay and highly recommend this place.

I stayed on the fifth floor on October 1, 2025. When I got to my room, nothing seemed unusual. I checked under the sheets, lifted the mattress, and looked under the furniture, but found nothing. After a shower I felt a bit less worried and went to bed. At 7:15 the next morning, I had a strange feeling something was in the bed. I pulled back the sheets and saw a bug near my torso, moving quickly. I caught it between sheets and squished it. Blood scattered, and I realized it was a bed bug. See attached photos. I gathered my things, took a quick shower, and went to the front desk, where they gave me another room. The desk worker called the manager over. I showed him the photos and didn't get an apology. He only asked which room it was and whether I'd taken all my belongings out, then walked away when I answered. Now I'm worried some of my things may have bugs. I'm really disappointed with Hampton this time. If you're staying in the Wilmington NC area, I don't recommend the Hampton by Hilton (124 Old Eastwood Rd).

I spent four nights here without any problems. The room was quiet, the employees were friendly and helpful, and breakfast was very good. There are several good places to eat within walking distance. I'd recommend it.

There’s a pleasant outdoor patio here, with a nicer atmosphere than you'd expect in such a built-up area. The hotel is well run, and the whole staff was outstanding. At arrival, Mikayla greeted us with a smile. The front desk was busy, so there was a short wait, and she showed concern and empathy about it. Annie greeted us each morning and was happy to answer questions. Breakfast had clean surroundings and both hot and cold options, with coffee available all day. Downtown is a short ride away, as are many restaurants, and Wrightsville beach is a short drive. A good choice in the Wilmington area.
