This Hampton Inn is nested in an iconic historical building in downtown Ogden. TA does not allow links, so just Google “Hampton Inn Ogden Ut” and you’ll run into Ogden’s site for visitors describing historical buildings in Ogden, it’s very interesting. As it is now, it’s tired… Our room was very small (but the price was the highest I have ever paid in a Hampton Inn), mini fridge yes, miniature old fashioned bath tube, windows looking at an interior opening between the two parts of the hotel. This last part was good for sleeping, absolutely no noise. Reception was lukewarm and sheets sparkling clean. The one thing I found most inconvenient was parking: you have to check in, unload, take your stuff to your room, then go back down, drive around the block to find the parking, try to identify the one you need to get in (reception gave us a map but did not tell us that there were 3 entrances of which we were to take the third one), then walk back to your hotel, which might not be ok for tired people with a walking problem. I had to mention this, so you that you know. The great thing about the hotel was that it’s one block away from The Union Grill which we loved (separate review). Also, it’s convenient for a walk in downtown Ogden, where most of the historical buildings are located. However, if I am ever in Ogden again, I am sure I’ll pick a different hotel.

Pros: ~Conveniently located, within walking distance of several restaurants. ~Pet friendly. ~Decent sized rooms. ~Outdoor pool ~Plenty of parking available ~Free breakfast ~Staff was incredibly friendly ~Suites are thoughtfully laid out so our family of 4 was able to spread out a bit for the night ~Probably the most comfortable sleeper sofa mattress I’ve ever laid on Cons: ~The building is really showing its age and does need a bit of TLC. ~ The main door had quite a gap so we had to get creative at bedtime to keep so much [hall] light from shining in. If no one had been using the pullout sofa bed then it wouldn’t have been an issue. Overall, a pleasant stay for the night on our way through Utah.
