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.

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.
