Hampton Inn St. Simons Island

8/10 Good

"The room was spacious and thoughtfully laid out. We appreciated having a sitting area and the extra shelf above the bathroom sink was very useful. It was also a bonus that there were outlets on both sides of the bed for charging our phones. Our only complaint is that the room smelled a bit musty when we arrived, although the room was very clean."

Home2 Suites by Hilton St. Simon's Island

10/10 Excellent

"Clean spacious room. The property is well Maintained. Small hotel so easy access to all amenities."

Ocean Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly. Check-in and out was a breeze . It’s an older motel and it shows but it is being renovated so that is a plus. The pool was right below our balcony. Parking is under the hotel and not many spaces. Unless you have a compact car, you probably aren’t parking there. There is public parking across the street. .. but not always close. Everything is within walking distance so that is a plus! If the tide is out, you can walk a short distance and be on the beach. Wouldn’t recommend swimming there, but certainly good for just a leisurely walk. The mirrors and balcony doors could have been washed a little better. the bathroom light was not bright so had to leave the connecting door open to be able to see while showering. The shower would squeal for just a bit when first started but then would stop. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioner worked great! We didn’t eat breakfast so I can’t comment on that. Overall I would certainly stay here again"
