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!

Was able to get a single night on the 4th of July for a very reasonable price. We got a mini studio which was beautiful, and right next to the pool! Staff were very friendly, and a 2 minute walk to the action! As a landscaper, the overgrown weeds are an eyesore, and the siding can use a good pressure washing.

Our room was smelly, the bed was very hard, the toilet was loose. The outdoor amenities were dirty. I would never go back. The only good thing about this place is the location.

Close to the beach——tried checking in early and was told my room was ready but there was a $35 charge for early check in……won’t stay here again as I am 100% sure that $35 was going to be pocketed…,,ridiculous as I travel for work and have NEVER paid anything for early check in…..when the room was ready

We were on the second floor and the hallways were dark and smelled bad and so did our room. Our bed was very uncomfortable. We tried using the coffee machine and there was old coffee still in the machine. The bathroom was gross. First time and last at this place.

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!
