HAMPTON INN & SUITES BEND, Bend

The hotel sits directly across the Deschutes River from the Old Mill District, providing quick access to shops, restaurants, and the amphitheater via a short walk across a pedestrian bridge. It's also a 20-minute drive to Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort and Sunriver. Walking and bike paths connect the property to Drake Park, the river loop, and nearby dining (Greg's Grill and Anthony's at the Old Mill are 0.5 km away). For events at the amphitheater, the location is ideal; the hotel offers a fire pit area for post-concert relaxation. Guests arriving by car will find easy access to the highway, but should account for the paid parking. The surrounding area is well-lit and safe for evening walks.

Room types include double rooms with one bed and quadruple rooms with two beds. Each room is equipped with a coffee maker, ironing facilities, heating, a sitting area, and garden furniture. Walk-in showers are standard except in accessible rooms. Air conditioning is controlled by a motion-sensor thermostat that may cycle the fan; windowless rooms or those facing the pool can have noise from the HVAC unit. Earlier-dated TVs with auto-dimming features have been reported in some rooms, but a room change can resolve the issue. Beds are generally described as comfortable, though some find the firmness preference-dependent. Rooms are considered spacious and clean, with some showing typical wear and tear. For light sleepers, a room away from the road or pool area is advisable. The hotel does not have rooms with a balcony.

Breakfast is available daily from 6am to 10am, featuring cheese omelets, potatoes, cereals, pastries, and beverages including a dark roast coffee. A grab & go option is also available with bagels, yogurt, hardboiled eggs, fruit, juice, and milk. The buffet is restocked regularly and diet-conscious options like gluten-free choices are offered. The hotel lobby provides complimentary coffee, ice water, and hot water throughout the day. There is no on-site restaurant, but the snack bar sells packaged items, and guests can purchase wine or champagne at the front desk. Nearby dining at the Old Mill District includes Greg's Grill and Anthony's, both within a 5-minute walk.

The indoor swimming pool and hot tub are open year-round. To maintain safety and space, the hotel uses a reservation system for pool/spa and fitness access, allowing one party at a time. The pool area is well-maintained with ample towels and seating. The fitness center is open 24/7 and includes modern equipment. An electric vehicle charging station is available for guests. An outdoor fire pit provides a communal space for evening relaxation, popular after concerts at the nearby amphitheater. Board games and puzzles are available for family entertainment.
