“My room was very comfortable and homey. The room amenities were very thoughtful for what one might need at a surprisingly affordable rate. I was very impressed and felt very safe and comfortable And had the best nights sleep in a long time! Which was a surprise since I typically don’t sleep well anywhere but home. This is my new favorite hotel.”
“We stayed here on a cross country trip from MN en route to Banff, AB. We left late and Minot was a good stopping point.
TL;DR: clean, friendly and quiet with a par breakfast and helpful staff. Family of six? Aces.
Pros: we came in at about 0100 and we were exhausted. The front desk was empty and the front doors are keycard controlled. I was ready to be irritated, but I picked up the phone on the table and immediately got through to night staff, who came running and attended to all that we needed. I had to come down twice after this for forgotten toiletries and extra bedding for the pullout couch; he was nothing but professional - much appreciated.
Room was 100% as expected. 2 queen beds and a pullout in the usual conformation. Bathroom was clean.
Finally: hats off to the chain for eliminating single serve condiments and reducing their environmental footprint. So too their gym (which was adequate and expected - we did not use the pool): no single serve cups for water - BYO bottle. Nice.
Neither pro nor con: the breakfast was as expected. Biscuits and gravy, eggs, bagels, yogurt and juices, coffee. I know that 100% of this stuff is prefab out of the freezer at every major hotel chain now, but it was a bit unappetizing watching the staff squeeze frozen gravy out of a two-gallon bag and into a chafing dish. But the coffee was hot, the yogurts were well-refrigerated, and I knew what we were expecting.
Con: Only thing that bothered us was a half-assed wallpaper repair in our room, see image. This was a minor point and I’d rather that than gritty carpet (carpet was clean), so I’ll take it.
Overall we were satisfied enough that we booked it for the return trip back home later that week. Even though we changed our return route and cancelled it, it made enough of an impression that we booked the same hotel in Bismarck.”

“The room was spacious and clean, very happy it came with kitchen and dishwasher etc.It would be even better if they have laundry in the room since they have plugin for laundry machine but somehow the machine is not provided... staff were extremely friendly. I would stay here again if I ever visit this city again!”
“Magic City Systems makes my life so much easier!! They take care of my every IT need, whether at my office or my home, and do it in a timely manner. I know I can count on them!”
“Not bad at all. I will say the internet was not the greatest, small tv; staff is super friendly.
-edit—the way my card was charged challenged my mental stability! Hard to expense this stay due to them splitting the charges all strange. Not to mention they charged my card like 5 different times for separated out for a 7 night stay”

“I’ve stayed here in the past and it was a better experience. There was a guy in maintenance, very kind, who always helped me with my heavy bags since the hotel has no elevator. Being older, I really appreciated that attention.
On my recent visit, I was disappointed because I couldn't find him. I asked the housekeeping staff for a little help with a bag, but they simply ignored me. I didn't push it and just left.
I like the hotel, but they need to be more attentive.”

“This hotel was amazing to us when our flight was cancelled. The rate was great. We were allowed to check out very very late since our next flight was later in the day. Such a nice bunch - we really appreciated their concern.”
“Stayed a week and was impressed overall. Bar had Good Vibe,Breakfest was good. Staff I came in contact with very friendly. Kim, Carla and Deb made it feel like a home away from home. Will Stay again”
“Had our son's birthday party there. Seating is upstairs and it is super humid/hot! No ventilation, but the kids had fun. Thats all that mattered. We had an ice cream cake and they let us put the remaining in their freezer so it would not melt. Very accommodating!”
“Was a great hotel growing up, over the years it has declined. Nice that it is being remodeled. Restaurant was nice that you didn't have to leave for supper. Or, you could walk to the bowling alley to play and eat.”

“Good place to stay. They gave us a room #116 right beside an outdoor light that was pointed up at the building that kept me awake most of the night. Good breakfast in the am.”
“This is my second stay at the Hampton Inn in Minot in the past three months, and I can confidently say this will remain my go-to hotel whenever I visit the area. The consistency in quality and service has been excellent both times.
The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and comfortable—exactly what you want after a long day of travel. The complimentary breakfast is fresh and satisfying, offering a good variety of options to start the day right. I also really appreciate the gym and pool area—both are well-kept and provide a nice way to unwind or get in a quick workout.
Overall, the Hampton Inn in Minot checks all the boxes for a reliable, pleasant stay. Highly recommended!”
