What guests think

Hampton Inn & Suites Arcata earns frequent praise for very clean, comfortable rooms, friendly service, and a reliable hot breakfast, with many guests enjoying the pool, hot tub, and easy highway access for Cal Poly Humboldt and Redwood visits.

Several reviews note a sketchy surrounding area with visible homelessness and occasional vehicle break‑ins, so some travelers avoided going out after dark. Ongoing construction and intermittent issues such as thin walls, noise near the gym or highway, elevator outages, slow drains, and inconsistent Wi‑Fi appear in a number of stays. Overall, expect a clean, comfortable base with welcoming staff and strong essentials.

Booked a “studio suite” and when we checked in found that there was tarp over all the windows because they were refacing the building. When we said this was unacceptable they put us in a smaller room but would not do anything to compensate us because we booked through Expedia. Hotels should make it clear to patrons if you can’t look through the windows, or if any other amenity it is reasonable to expect in a hotel room is lacking. I would absolutely never have booked this room when planning my vacation if I’d known about the window situation.

Room was spacious and staff were great! The bed was great but TV placement was awkward and limited in adjustability. The in-room jetted tub was a big attraction but filling it took way too long and jet operation was weak. AC worked great but would shut off throughout the night and not kick back on, perhaps it's their way of saving energy.

The room was excellent, definitely five stars. The only reason for not giving five stars overall was the setup of the internet. Free wifi is advertised but when connecting I was asked to provide all sorts of personal information to become a member of their "club" which I didn't want to do. The front desk gave me a special code which worked on the iPhone (though I had to do this more than once during my stay). Wifi didn't work on my MacBook; for some reason the popup window for giving the login information didn't appear. I've had this problem at just one other hotel in about five years. Wifi access should be simpler than this and at most hotels it is. Otherwise this was a great stay.

This hotel is still in excellent condition. I did not have breakfast but they do have a breakfast buffet. The room was spacious and clean. Basics in place. Did not take in the pool or gym resources. The downside was it is a bit noisy in the morning because the hotel is close to the highway.

The WiFi was pretty weak. $5 charge for ‘premium’ but could never find out where to purchase it after declining the first time. I rely on good internet to work. Keep in mind not great cell service (VZW). Other than that slept like a baby, everything was clean, and had no issues at all! Would stay again.

Everything about this place was just fine: reasonably easy check-in, clean, comfortable, quiet rooms with modern interior. AND THEN WE TRIED TO HAVE A NICE BREAKFAST. The woman running the breakfast buffet does a TERRIBLE job. First there was no milk. Then they were out of yogurt AND THEN they ran out of water. The orange juice needed to be replaced too, and I overheard another guest asking for napkins. All the while, the woman running the buffet was hiding out in the back room drinking her water and using her cellphone. Note to hotel owners: This employee either needs serious retraining or, better yet, she needs to be terminated so that the proper message is sent to her about having such a poor attitude toward her work responsibilities.
