I recently stayed at the Hampton Inn & Suites on Shea Boulevard in Scottsdale and overall had a very pleasant experience. The hotel is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and wonderfully quiet â perfect for a relaxing stay. Its location is also a major highlight: conveniently situated near all major stores, and just a short drive to the Malls, Downtown, and Old Town Scottsdale.
The rooms were comfortable, the atmosphere was peaceful, and everything about the property felt inviting and safe.
However, one area that stood out â unfortunately, for the wrong reasons â was the breakfast. If you came a little "late" (around 8:00 AM), you would likely find very little left. Items like cream cheese, yogurt, eggs, and even napkins were missing, and what was available was not up to the standard one would expect. The powdered scrambled eggs and overly processed sausage left much to be desired. It was quite disappointing given the otherwise high quality of the hotel.
My sincere recommendation to the hotel's management and owners would be either to increase the room rate slightly if a quality breakfast is to be included, or to stop advertising breakfast altogether if they are unable to offer a decent meal. Guests should never be made to feel like second-rate customers, especially in such an otherwise excellent establishment.
Despite the breakfast issue, I would still recommend this hotel to travelers looking for a clean, quiet, and very well-located place to stay in n Scottsdale.
