We stayed for one night. The room was nice, the jetted hot tub an added bonus. We did not like the location of the room on top of a garage with no knowledge of the other areas of the property. No ice machine nearby. Location was good. Property was clean.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were nice size. The location was perfect. Not directly on the beach , but foot steps away.. Nice surprise was the AMAZING view for the fireworks. Watched them from the hotel deck. Couldnt have had a better view . Right over our heads. My only complaint was the bed wasnt very comfortable. Not sure if it was a room specific thing. We liked the laid back atmosphere. Would go back. If you're

We had a wonderful stay at The Ships Inn in Hampton Beach! The entire staff was amazing, friendly, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had a great experience, and their hospitality truly stood out. The inn was a great place to stay while enjoying everything Hampton Beach has to offer, and the positive atmosphere made our trip even better. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend The Ships Inn to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Hampton Beach. Thank you to the entire team for making our visit such a memorable one!

Don't listen to these other reviews. This place is just fine. The rooms we had were spacious, clean enough, and had everything we needed and more. I admit that reading some of these horrendous reviews almost had me switching hotels. But once again, internet reviews turned out to be mostly written by folks who don't know how to appreciate things. The only thing I disliked was that it could have been about $100 cheaper. That's it. Enjoy your stay, it's a fun little spot.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms could be updated but it was clean. The roof was excellent to watch the fireworks. Very closed to the beach strip. But… the pool was disgustingly gross. Dingy water, mold around the pool. How if chlorine is supposed to clean all that! They didn’t want to refund the second day the purpose of my trip was to swim in the pool but didn’t get to. I don’t swim in the ocean but made the best of it outside the hotel.

Likes.. nice pool,upper deck was a lovely place to sit. Beautiful sitting area outside with flowers and chairs..A porch with table and chairs. Spacious room with microwave toaster table and chairs. Dislike.... Broken depri in so many places out. Such a eye soar. Behind buildings in parking lots. I traveled with children and broken sharp object in common areas are a huge risk. Our room didnt have a smoke detector. Wires were exposed. Towels for two when you book with 4 people is a huge inconvenience. We asked for more and was told they would bring. The towels never came The scariest part was the tub. It was cracked and pieces were sharp. It was absolutely leaking. Tub was moving while.walking on it. It didnt hold water. I was sad to kmow that that room was given knowing we booked with children.

Slightly obstructed beach view but there is a deck and a pool and it’s close to everything. The hotel has seen many years but it is maintained and clean with a few updates. Could do with a few more updates in the kitchenettes but it is well stocked and I’d stay there anytime!
