Spark by Hilton Hilton Head Island

We slept in everyday, so cleaning never managed to get in our room. The floor was filthy after the first day from sand and silt. The bathroom either didn’t have a fan or it was tied to one of the lights and was broken. The room was constantly humid and our swimsuits never really dried. The public areas were clean and well kept. There were a lot of families, most of whom were great. Eating breakfast to the sound of a girl being beat by her younger brother with a stick wasn’t fun on that one day though. The location was a two block walk from the beach and was quite close. Mostly what you’re paying for here is the location.

When planning our youngest's move into her USCB dorm, my husband and I decided to spend a couple of extra days on the island. We were attracted to this location due to its proximity to the beach. Given how new this property is to the Hilton family, I was a little nervous, but it was exactly what we needed! The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. A family of four could easily be comfortable here. It was very clean and fresh too. The room comes with only the bare necessities including a fridge and an ice bucket. There is no in room coffee maker or microwave, but both are available in the lobby. While it's not your traditional Hilton breakfast, we really loved the bagel bar with all the toppings, plus coffee and yogurt. The hotel was a lot quieter than we expected too given that the rooms open to the exterior. The best part was the short, three-block walk to a residential beach access walkway. (I was afraid we'd have to walk all the way to Coligny Beach Park - that wasn't the case.) It was only a ten minute walk back to our room from our setup on the beach. Our only plans for this empty nest getaway was the beach, so we didn't make use of the pool area, but it looked very nice. I would definitely stay here again!

This was one of the worst hotels/motels that I have ever stayed at. Staff was not friendly at all. This was supposed to be pet friendly but they are not. The room they put us in was right across from the elevator and ice machine. All the noise would make our dogs bark, which caused people to complain on us, during daytime hours. The bed was the worst one I have ever slept on. The room was very outdated. We were booked for five nights but left after two. Also, we were charged a daily parking fee for a very open lot. We saw a lot of sketchy people hanging around. No security.

My heart sunk when drove up to this so called hotel. I have been deceived by Hilton. This is a glorified motel. I had to walk around the hotel from the elevator. The room is badly designed you can’t keep curtains open as Everyone can see in. There was no soap or hair products to have shower. Finally no safe to put valuables in. The pool is tiny and there is no towels provided for the beach either. Don’t advertise you close to beach and beach hotel when you are not. Don’t even provide a towel. Breakfast is vile and I avoided the dry out of date bagels They are still painting and decorating. What a mistake coming here. Never again. Hilton should be ashamed to brand this as Hilton with or without Sparks

I would rate this motel 0 stars if I could. Hilton markets this, and prices it, as a hotel- when it’s actually an overpriced motel 6. It’s a motel- with external entrances, no soundproofing, a “breakfast” which unlike other Hilton properties who provide breakfast - they have only a cold “continental breakfast” (which is basically a dry bagel and a spread). This used to be a best western, and probably was better under their management. The stairwells smell of urine, the rooms have bugs - one of which my cat ate and others we got rid of. This is an overpriced, under maintained facility that should be audited and inspected by the health department - which will be my next message sent.

The Hilton Head Spark hotel is a simple hotel. the staff is very friendly and welcoming. the rooms are clean and well maintained. The breakfast is very simple. they offer a microwave in the lobby to warm something up. there is also a bottle filler with filter in the lobby.

I’m almost reluctant to write a review if it means more people finding this gem. It’s absolutely the best value on Hilton Head Island. Clean room, accommodating and friendly staff, bagel bar breakfast every morning, coffee and tea all day, and it’s one block’s walk from the public beach access. As another review stated, this is a redone motel and the room entrances are outside. There is a fee to park per day. The motel is pretty far back on the road and also unmarked- if you don’t know it’s there, you wouldn’t. At no point did I feel unsafe, and I wasn’t bothered by any outside noise while I slept. I will absolutely come back here next time at the beach.

Even it‘s „only a Spark“, but it still belongs to the Hilton Group if I‘m not mistaken. No recognition of my Gold membership, no recognition of my picked room at online check-in (I got a different one after I‘ve arrived), no clue about the RBC Heritage golf tournament what‘s going on right now. I was overall disappointed with the hospitality. Location is good, quiet area, public beach access less than 0.5 miles away. Little outdoor pool. Rooms are ok, but no balcony as described. HBO available. Windows can‘t open what makes no sense if one likes the ocean breeze. Breakfast disappointing. All plastic! Won‘t come back!

Absolutely delighted with my stay at Spark by Hilton. From the moment I stepped in, the cleanliness and attention to detail stood out. The staff’s friendliness was exceptional. Including well-appointed comfortable rooms, with a spacious shower, and beautiful floors, contributed to a wonderful experience.The guest satisfaction truly set this hotel apart.  In the morning had a perfect bagel experience at Spark by Hilton, started my morning at the bagel bar. Enjoyed a delicious creation with a cup of freshly brewed coffee with a variety of flavors.  A delightful start to your day. I ended up staying for 3 nights.
