If you travel for business - and especially if your travels take you outside major cities - a hotel isn't just a hotel; for as long as you're on the road it's your office, your home, and often your kitchen, too.
I recently stayed in this Hampton Inn while on a business trip to the Hudson Valley, and it delivered everything I was looking for in a business hotel. Of course the rooms were clean and comfortable - pretty much any hotel worth it's salt can deliver that. What made the difference for me was the business-friendly extras: free WiFi throughout the hotel; a free breakfast bar that actually offered a range of attractive and healthy choices; a convenient location with restaurants within easy walking distance; and even free use of an ethernet-to-wireless bridge when I ran into trouble with my wireless card.
If you're used to luxury or boutique hotels, Hampton Inn won't satisfy your need for Frette sheets, down pillows and brand-name bath products. But if you're on the road pretty much anywhere in the U.S, and need to be productive and get a good night's sleep for a fair price, it's hard to do better than Hampton Inn.
