Hampton Inn Mattress Review

Hampton Inn is a hotel brand owned by Hilton. They're a standard luxury innerspring hybrid that do a fine job replicating their hotel comfort.

However a lack of detailed specifications combined with long delivery times (with bad return and warranty policies) make us search for alternatives.

Our #1 alternative is Saatva Classic. Saatva offers a real luxury experience that you'd expect from the best hotels in the world.

Here are several relevant and useful comments from buyers considering or have already purchased Hampton Inn Mattress.

• User 1: "We needed a place to stay post surgery so as Hilton Honors members, we chose the Hampton Inn. When I left the surgical center, all I wanted was a nice comfy bed to crawl into. What a disappointment! The queen bed sagged in the middle and the sheets and mattress cover would not stay on the corners. The bed should have been tossed out rather than being used as a guest accomodation. It was so soft and worn that you sank down when you sat on it. When my husband mentioned it to the front desk, he was told it was a new bed!! On the contrary...this bed had more wear and tear than a car with 300,000 miles on it! It certainly did not represent the bed quality that Hampton Inn brags about in their advertisements and is known for. Unfortunately, we could not wait to leave this property."

• User 2: "The mattress was very lumpy. My neck and back were so sore the next morning that I had to take Advil all day to deal with the pain. I was also up most of the night because the bed was so springy - each time my daughter moved in her sleep, the whole bed shook and it woke me up. This was my second stay at a Hampton Inn in 2 months, and I found the bed at the other one to be almost as bad. It's a shame because they are otherwise great hotels."

COMFORT OVERVIEW
Comfort, feel and overall firmness for Shop Hampton mattress is extremely subjective.

Firmness isn't the only factor to consider when you're mattress shopping.

Choosing the right bed starts with figuring out how your body responds to lying at different angles.

It's important to understand how a mattress relieves pain and distributes pressure on your sensitive points (neck, shoulder, upper back, lower back, arms, hips, legs), as well as how it feels for couples and sex.

COMFORT SUMMARY
Firmness is very subjective and greatly differs between two people. What's firm for you might be extremely soft for someone else.

Be cautious about reviews that make definitive claims about how you'll feel sleeping on a mattress.

Hampton Inn has a medium stiffness (6.5/10). This means you'll experience no major issues sleeping on your back, stomach, or side (since this is an industry-standard firmness).

It's hybrid innerspring design combined with memory foam means your pressure points have a good balance of cushioned firmness and contouring support (with proper spinal alignment).

EDGE SUPPORT
• Online specs give little detail (which is standard with direct to consumer hotel mattresses like this), so it's hard to tell if the edge support is good.
• Edge support should be 'okay' at worst since it's a pocket coil hybrid.
• There's no way to tell if the edge support will last.

Note: If a mattress uses low-quality materials, it might feel supportive at first, but break down quickly.

Inadequate edge support means less sleep surface (which is not desirable, especially if you sleep with a partner).

SIDE SLEEPERS
• Your shoulders, hips and torso must evenly distribute support if you sleep on your side. Otherwise concentrated pressure causes long term nerve and pain-related issues.
• Hampton Inn only makes 1 firmness, a medium-firm. Side sleepers do relatively well on medium-firm mattresses. If you exclusively sleep on your side, you may want to go a little softer, but you shouldn't experience major problems.

BACK/STOMACH SLEEPERS
• When you sleep on your back & stomach, your biggest concern should be finding a mattress that keeps your hips from sinking too far in. This knocks your spine out of alignment.
• Back and stomach sleepers get plenty of support from the Hampton Inn mattress. You'll feel 'on top of' the mattress, which means good spinal alignment

EDGE SUPPORT

• Online specs give little detail (which is standard with direct to consumer hotel mattresses like this), so it's hard to tell if the edge support is good.
• Edge support should be 'okay' at worst since it's a pocket coil hybrid.
• There's no way to tell if the edge support will last.

Note: If a mattress uses low-quality materials, it might feel supportive at first, but break down quickly.

Inadequate edge support means less sleep surface (which is not desirable, especially if you sleep with a partner).

MOTION TRANSFER

Motion transfer measures how much movement shifts from one side of the bed to the other. If you sleep with a partner who tosses and turns during the night, you'll want to get a mattress that offers effective motion isolation. Less motion transfer means you'll get more REM sleep.

Motion transfer is solid. Though there is some transferance during movement, it dissipates fairly quickly. This means you may feel your partner's movement for a split second, but as long as you're not a light sleeper (that's easily disturbed), you'll be fine.
