    I had a good experience here no issues with hotel staff. It is not that far from the the tulare outlets and has a shopping center in front of it. it is about 15 minutes away from Visalia.From what I saw lots of people staying at the hotel were going to national forest or were working in the area. I will say lobby area is very put together you can hang out in or work in. It did have a strong floral scent I personal loved it but can see it being a con for others . Some cons the floors and thin, such an odd thing the say. But lots of foot steeps late in the night and early morning. The room did have a musk old smell but it went away when the AC turned on. The bedding did not have a smell so I am assuming it is the age of the hotel. The room is huge! I was so surprised , a 3rd bed could be added or if you bring an air mattress it looks like it will fit. The showers were nice and Hot which is rare in hotels now. Breakfast here 10/10 there was variety of hot meal eggs , sausage sandwich and bacon. Variety of milk , yogurt and cereal. I will say yes it has some hiccups but if you need a place to stay and sleep this is the place.

    Hilton chain with free breakfast and free parking. Stayed here for a night while on our way up to whitewater rafting in King's River, and had a pleasant stay. The room was quite spacious and the staff were all friendly. Free wifi even if you're not a Hilton Honors member. We made the booking online in advance and there were no issues at checkin. There is a fitness center with basic equipment as well as a pool (closes at 10pm). They have a coffee machine in the lobby as well as in the rooms.

    The check in experience was great, the evening shift employee was friendly, however I wasn't too fond of this hotel. The Yelp photos were misleading as it said it was "renovated," however once on site the wifi dropped multiple times; confirmed on different devices, wasn't able to do work. The room had a musty odor, as if it were an outdated room with just a flat screen television as the update. It took at least 5 minutes to get hot water from the faucet, I'd have to leave the water running in the sink in order for the shower to kick in. The gym had no towels, seemed neglected. Good thing I was only here for two nights.

    1 bed room.

    I checked-in via Hilton app so I already had a key, but I always wanted a key card. The person at the front desk was nice and helpful. The pool is open and the gym is closed. Due to Covid there is no more self-serve tea, coffee, or water. You can always ask the front desk though. One of the reasons I love staying at a Hampton Inn is because of the breakfast. It's really not anything super great, but I enjoy it. The freshly made waffles, fresh fruit, fresh juice. I just want to be able to experience that. With Covid, that can't happen anymore. To substitute this they offer to-go breakfast that you pick up at the front desk. The brown breakfast bag consists of bottled water, fruit, and some bars. I'm so bummed, but what can you do? I stayed in a one king-bed room. It was probably the most awkwardly-placed-furniture-spaced-out room I have stayed in. Really, there was so much space for two people to be in. The bed, table, bathroom, closet were clean. There was a "kitchenette" where the one cup coffee maker, fridge, and microwave are, but with a sick as well. Another plus! My only thing that gives me pause is the location of the property because of the people who wander around night. At night there was a man sitting on an empty parking space and it was clear to say he was from the area. Also, when I left for the day there was a patrol car driving through the parking lot. I haven't seen that in any hotel I have stayed at. With that said there are also businesses right across the street if you might have forgotten to pack anything. There's a Vallarta and Denny's. Another plus, the hotel is near the outlets. All in all, I would still stay here again.

    This is how big the cockroach was compared to this lotion they provided.

    dirty & disgusting. Refer to the photos below. Do not bring your babies here because EVERYTHING was dirty. The sink was broken and sprayed me on the day I scheduled job interviews which I was then late for. My bf found a cockroach the first night. Don't be fooled by the nice lobby..because that too isn't sanitized or disinfected or even wiped down. Had their complimentary breakfast in the lobby around 7:30am and came back to work in the lobby around noon and there were some tables with crumbs on them. I'm disappointed with money spent here. SPEND YOUR MONEY SOMEWHERE ELSE!

    Solid hotel in Tulare if needing a place to stay. Central to everything, restaurants, gas, outlets. Staff is friendly and we had all we needed in our room so we have no complaints. We were very happy with our accommodations and would definitely stay here again. This is our second time staying here and it did not disappoint.

    STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE! GO TO HOMEWOOD SUITES-FRESNO AIRPORT INSTEAD! THIS HOTEL IS FILTHY AND STAFF IS RUDE! I always inspect my hotel rooms and tonight was no different. I found it to be over the top dirty. Manager was very rude when it was brought to her attention and stated their hotel did not meet my family's standard and we could leave, but they were still going to charge us the full amount. She also refused to offer to clean the room even after I asked her several times. All we wanted to do is go to bed after a long day. We did not expect the manager to act in such an unprofessional manner, treat us with such malice and refused to make the room a little better so we could stay.

    Hampton Inn & Suites- Tulare California This is a good place to stay when visiting California's Central Valley. It's pretty close to Fresno, without the congestion. Main freeway is Hwy 99 which is pretty smooth sailing overall, though not as "quick" as Interstate 5 when traversing the long tall State Of California. The hotel is on the Hilton chain of hotels. So this might be a good way to gain stay points at a reduced nightly rate. I got on the popular AAA club rate. Parking is free and plentiful. The lobby is smallish but nice. The lobby consists of a reception desk, a coffee/ tea station, and opens to a lounging area and dining area for the free breakfast. The entire desk and lounge area appeared to be very clean, bright, and the furniture and decor was in newish condition and up to date with style. While I would not call the hotel "elegant" ....it's okay because it's not meant to be. Rather, this is a perfect place for business travelers, vacationing family, and overnight stays. Clean and casual and inexpensive! Location is good. There are a couple of strip malls nearby so walking to dining options is easy. Every major chain restaurant and retail giant is within a ten min drive. The desk clerk was super welcoming, cheerful and professional. Check in was a breeze. Distance to "schlep" luggage from the car to the elevator was quite easy. And once you get your room key, you can park around back and use your room key to enter the rear door which is closer to the elevators than through the main doors. The room was great! It was good sized, had a full sized desk, mini fridge, window ledge style A/C with wall controls, good sized TV, free cable, separate restroom (of course). The bed and bedding were quite good! The pillows varied in density, allowing you to pick your favorites. That was cool. The room appeared clean and fresh with updated furnishings. Comfort level was about as good as it gets! Overall I would give the hotel 4 out of 5 stars! So one wonky thing that I'll say right here is NOT the reason for not rating 5 stars...but is just kinda...well, I'll go ahead and say it... Hilton / Hampton Tulare management- "What in the great wide world were you thinking?? Putting a coffee maker in the bathroom??" So yeah, you get a pretty spacious and comfortable room at a clean looking hotel. As many hotels do, the room had a small coffee/ tea station complete with condiments. But....it was in the...bathroom?? Wha? In case you want something hot to drink while you go potty?? So what's the hassle? Just move the coffee maker into the main room when you brew your coffee, right?? Ehhh- not so fast... So I get this isn't billed as a "food service " hotel, so maybe...just maybe they have not heard of "molecule dispersion" in food safety class. You know, it's that thing that the fellas (Adam and Jamie) demonstrated on Mythbusters? Yeah, like how most of the world stores toothbrushes at the "bathroom sink" or close by. And when someone poops, the actual airborne particles of poop travel evenly throughout the space, including onto toothbrushes? Ewwwww! Now it's a widely known "thing" but let's face it. When it's YOUR toothbrush or that of your family, and it's your family using the bathroom, we just sort of go about our lives and ignore it! But....ahhhh- what about staying at the Hampton Tulare where hundreds, maybe thousands of poop filled guests have been evacuating in the VERY SAME tiny bathroom where the coffee maker is stored??! Ewwwwww!! How about a HOT FRESH cup of....???? I get it, I get it. Who uses in-room coffee makers anyway, right? Just don't use the dang thing. Easy right? Well- for me it's more how the hotel views guest health than anything. If they set up your coffee maker in the bathroom, where do they cook your "free breakfast?" Get the idea? How about seeing a "chef" walk out of a restroom with a PB&J on a silver platter and sets it front of you with a flourish and "Bon appettit!" Could you eat?? Should you eat it? See what I mean? Dear Hampton Tulare- please consider setting up your coffee makers elsewhere in the room. A nightstand, dresser, in-room desk. Lots of options are in each room, but let's get it out of the bathroom for goodness sakes!! Oh- and please do an inspection on how your eggs and bacon are being prepared...just to be sure. Thank you for the overall lovely stay, Hampton Inn and Suites Tulare California!

    Very moldy orange in the breakfast to-go bag.

    3.5 stars rounded up to 4 stars…read more I was in town for a Filipino debut party. Best Western Town & Country Lodge was the nearest location to the event, safe neighborhood, and that was rated more than a 2-Star. For a 3-Star hotel, they meet the standard amenities. They even have an outdoor pool and hot tub. The hot tub was out of service at the time of my visit. PROS -Self parking on the premises with cameras. -Near my event with restaurants nearby. -Reasonable price. -Free breakfast. CONS -Noise at night from the busy road. -Walls are paper thin. -I smelled Coffee at 6 AM! Why? -No blackout curtains. -Loud AC unit made random clicking sound. Overall, my stay was fine for one night. If I was to stay more than one night, I would ask for the a room in the back of the premises because I was woken up a couple of times by sirens and loud noise. I'm also a light sleeper. My room was on the second floor near the front desk. Although the room is dated, I can tell it was recently painted and upgraded with new furnishings. Well maintained and clean. The room is spacious and had all the basic amenities, plus a microwave! Complimentary breakfast 6-9 AM daily with a good variety. Coffee, tea, juice, waffle maker, toaster with bread, bagel and muffin, cereals and hot items like scrambled eggs, sausages and biscuits and gravy. I didn't have much interaction with the staff but they seem friendly.

My one critique is I was traveling with a baby so I wasn't looking at the time. I made sure she had enough food during breakfast but at 9AM sharp the doors to the cafeteria were locked and shut so I lost track of time and therefore lost the ability to get myself a plate. A 5 minute warning would of been great but otherwise a great place to stay.

The rooms are always clean, the Elderwood is an ice touch, and the vibe is always fun. During this trip, all was fine when what sounded like the HVAC system above our room started to knock. It's an old historic building so, things happen. The knocking though quickly turned into a roar. We contacted the front desk and this is where the true professionalism of the hotel crew, and particularly Maria, shined through. Maria quickly came upstairs, assessed the situation, triaged with other teams inside the hotel, and identified a solution within 20 minutes. Given the scope of the repair was unclear at the time, she moved us to another room and even upgraded us (even though she didn't have to!) for the inconvenience. Things happen, that's not an issue for us, it's how the team addresses them when they come up. The Darling team rose to the occasion with flying colors so seamlessly in this situation, especially Maria. So for us, just underscores a series of positive experiences at the hotel. This isn't an ultra luxury 5-star hotel, so don't come here expecting that. But it's a great place to stay in Visalia with a premium, boutique vibe, great restaurant, and clean well apportioned rooms. We will be back.

Room service was good quality, appropriately priced and arrived quickly. The only reason I couldn't give this 5 stars was there was no internal secondary lock on the door which made it feel a little unsafe as a solo traveler and also there were not clear instructions about how to enter the gated parking lot upon checking in. Otherwise I had a good stay and would consider visiting again just to eat at the restaurant.

It was extremely hot during our August trip, so having cold water, coffee, and tea available in the lobby was a great touch. The beds were surprisingly comfortable, too. Since it's an older Quality Inn, the wall AC unit was very loud and kept turning on and off throughout the night, which made it a bit hard to sleep, also the ceiling fan definitely helped with cooling off the room.
