Hampton Inn & Suites Madison/Downtown

"Great hotel! Beautiful view from the picture window. Good breakfast with eggs & bacon & fresh fruit. Lots of extras- chocolate chip cookies in lobby & coffee in between meals. A very relaxing trip. Would definitely stay there again!"

"Nice place. Breakfest was great for a hotel. Workers kept it up and were working hard. Only complaint would be the slow elevators. We were on the 10th floor. Sometimes, it took a very long time for one to stop and open up for us. The place is clean, and it's nice having parking ramp attached"

"This was my first time in Madison, but I was traveling with my dogs since one had an appointment at the University Vet School downtown, and I was looking for a place to stay that was close by. Because this was a pet friendly hotel, I was disappointed they didn't really have an area to bring my dogs to eliminate. The slight landscaping around the outside of the building is bushes and rocks, no grass, yet there are small patches of grass (luckily!) located in the neighborhood surrounding it. The restaurant inside stinks, but is supposedly not affiliated with the hotel, anyway; there are plenty of decent places to eat nearby but that means no room service, which is handy when you have pets and don't want to leave them in the room alone. The room itself was so-so. I didn't think the bed or pillows were very comfortable, and I didn't sleep well. I really missed my own bed at home! No on-demand movies either, and to log into Netflix I had to use my own personal log-in. I was excited about the free continental breakfast, and there was a good variety of items available, but the food was just decent. I'm glad I only had to stay one night, and I would not stay there again, especially if traveling with my dogs."

"I can't even explain how impressed I was with this hotel. The level of cleanliness was immaculate, the location is great and the rooms are comfortable. What really made a big difference to me were little things that made traveling with small kids easier and more enjoyable. Water fill stations down the hall, in room microwave and mini fridge, lots of space, great pool, plentiful breakfast, and fun activities like a scavenger hunt for a plush hippo and coloring pages made this such a delightful experience for us. We will stay here whenever we are in Madison."

"Perfectly fine. Room was nice and clean. For some reason the tv was unplugged in the back and it took me a while to figure out why I couldn't get it to turn on. Maybe a previous guest? It was nice that the tv itself turned so that I could see it from various points in the room. I liked the view too. I would have appreciated more vegetarian options at the free breakfast, but they at least had lots of cereals to choose from."
