Located where desert meets mountains and approximately 20 minutes from Carlsbad Caverns National Park, the Hampton Inn & Suites is a great choice for families visiting the caverns as well as the Pecos River Walk and Living Desert Zoo and Gardens. The 85-room hotel offers a variety of clean and up-to-date accommodations including suites with wetbars, microwaves, refrigerators and spacious bathrooms. All rooms offer complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen televisions, coffeemakers and ironing boards. Cribs and high chairs are available upon request.

Families will enjoy the hot complimentary buffet breakfast each morning as well as proximity to chain restaurants including a Chilli’s restaurant within walking distance of the hotel. Kids will love the hot chocolate and cookies served evenings in the lobby and taking a dip in the indoor pool and Jacuzzi. Although located on a busy commercial road, guests comment that the rooms are quiet. No worries if you run out of diapers or have forgotten sippy cups — there’s a WalMart right next door. A coin laundry is also available.
