Hampton Inn & Suites Mission Viejo

8/10 Good

"I had a great stay at Hampton Inn & Suites Mission Viejo. The complimentary breakfast was very good with a nice variety of options. The front desk staff were extremely helpful especially Banuri, who was polite, professional, and always smiling. I appreciated that the hotel offered a number to text for questions or late check‑out requests. Every interaction by phone, email, and in person was quick and respectful. The suite was very clean, and parking was easy with self‑parking available. My only small note is that the bed was a bit firm for my preference, but overall, everything else was excellent. I’d definitely stay here again."
