The Pelham Resort Motel

Very small room and very small bathroom. The entire hotel is not handicap accessible. Stairs are steep! Lot of traffic noise and blinds did not filter the light. Awake most of the night because of light and noise. Breakfast is bare essentials. Coffee, yogurt, cereal and pastries.

We really loved it here! We stayed on the Motel side of things at the Pelham. LOCATION: It is right on the beach! It is located on Ocean Boulevard. What a great location! ROOM: The room we had was nice, clean, a bit small (but we wanted that, to keep it affordable, and it was affordable!). Free Wi-Fi! And the Air Conditioning system was one of those new mini-split units that was super quiet & efficient! The beds were clean, but a slightly squeaky box spring, lol. But everything was super here - nice! PRICE: As stated above = one of the few affordable places right on the beach! STAFF: The owner is nice, as is the rest of the staff. FOOD: And they had a continental breakfast every morning, which was included in the price. Standard fare, and sometimes they ran out of the healthier low-fat yogurts (it was towards the end of the season, so it was to be expected), but otherwise perfect! EXTRA'S: They have a nice deck out front, facing ocean boulevard (nice!). They have a heated swimming pool in the back, which is nice if you have younger kids that you want to keep close, and safe. And they own the big building next door (I think they call it the Suites?). In any case, when they have fireworks, you can go up to that roof, and watch with a spectacular view. You can go any night, and enjoy the view & atmosphere. RECOMMENDED = I wouldn't stay anywhere else on the beach, for the price.

Very disappointed with our choice of hotel. Upon check in, we were told that we could unload out in front of the hotel but, then would have to park in the hotel parking lot that was basically 3 blocks away behind a “yellow house with a Pelham sign”. The room was a disappointment also. From the tiny tv that wouldn’t stay upright (broken bracket?) to the very dirty shower curtain to the grossly dusty ceiling fan to the uncomfortable very squeaky bed; the room gave off an unpleasant feeling. These things, plus the fact that HB had already basically shut down for the season; caused us to cut our losses and leave after 1 night.

An older building. It felt like southern charm. It was clean and cared for. It stood out above most of the places in Hampton, and it’s in the beach!!!

Extremely dated, The pictures were not representative of the actual condition. Roof deck was on top of building next store so it was Inconvenient.

I cannot say enough good things about the Pelham! Directly across from the ocean, close to so many venues, the most amazing views! I stayed in one of the suites on the top floor (be advised 43 steps). The view from the room was breathtaking. The room itself was clean and well-appointed, just lovely. The rooftop one floor up was, again, amazing, spectacular views. If you have kids, it’s right across the street from the playground. I would stay there again in a heartbeat, and I highly recommend the Pelham!

Everyone was very friendly. Porch is perfect. Continental breakfast and coffee very good.

The only thing this place has going for it is location. You have to park two blocks from hotel. This are very steep stairs, small dirty rooms. It takes two flushes for the toilet. Ceiling falling in, mold on shower curtain. You hear the music from bar across the steet till 11 PM, then at 5:15 every morning you heard the trash pick up which lastes about 10 minutes. at 6 AM its the street sweeper. If you are you stay here, don't say you were not warned.

Positive notes: 1. Very friendly and helpful staff. 2. Good size fridge. 3. Chest of drawers. 4. Table and chairs. 5. Right on the boardwalk. Negative notes: 1. No shampoo in the shower stall and none at the front desk! Bring your own! 2. Noisy neighbors in the lodge next door that I could hear through the wee hours. 3. The smallest TV set I had ever seen at any resort, with a 26” screen! 4. No screen on one of the windows, so it couldn’t be opened. 5. Shower curtain installed too high up so water got all over the floor from the gap below.
