Hampton Inn By Hilton Poughkeepsie

Comfort Meets Convenience Near Poughkeepsie's Music Scene

Modern, comfortable, and conveniently located just outside the heart of Poughkeepsie, the Hampton Inn By Hilton Poughkeepsie offers a relaxed stay with easy access to live music venues, colleges, and local attractions. With cozy rooms—some featuring kitchenettes—and thoughtful amenities like an indoor pool, hot tub, and complimentary breakfast, this 3-star hotel is a smart pick for concert-goers looking to pair their night out with a restful stay.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just minutes from popular venues like Bardavon Opera House and Vassar College’s event spaces, this hotel makes getting to the show a breeze. The area is generally quiet at night, so it’s easy to unwind post-concert. Guests appreciate the 24-hour front desk for late-night check-ins, and the free parking is a bonus if you're driving in for the show. Public transport and rideshares are available, but most guests opt for personal or rental cars due to the suburban setting.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a shared base with amenities like a hot tub to relax in after the show
• Solo travelers catching a favorite artist and wanting a safe, straightforward stay
• Couples making a romantic weekend out of a concert night
• Fans needing a quieter spot to recover after a loud night out
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers a daily continental, American, or vegetarian breakfast—perfect for those recovering from a late night. While there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, the snack bar keeps hunger at bay, and rooms with kitchenettes offer added flexibility. Many eateries are just a short drive or delivery away.

Nightlife Options

While the Hampton Inn doesn't feature its own bar or live music, its location allows guests to easily explore Poughkeepsie’s nightlife. Downtown bars and lounges are under 15 minutes away by car, offering everything from craft cocktails to divey charm. For a more relaxed vibe, the hotel’s shared lounge is a good spot to wind down.

What People Say

Guests consistently highlight the hotel’s cleanliness, friendly staff, and comfortable beds. Reviews often mention the convenience of having a pool and hot tub, especially after a night of dancing or standing at a show. The location is praised for its balance of accessibility and peace.

Areas for Improvement

Some visitors noted that the hotel is a bit outside of downtown, so having a car is helpful. Others mentioned that while the snack bar is handy, a full-service restaurant would be a welcome addition.
