Pin itAdjacent to Palmetto Hall, near the Bluffton bridge, and priced to redirect the budget toward green fees.
$88–$175/night
Booking via Expedia
The Hampton Inn sits adjacent to the Palmetto Hall - Arthur Hills Course, putting an affordable, brand-standard hotel within walking distance of a quality Hilton Head layout. The 122 rooms come with free hot breakfast, free parking, free Wi-Fi, pool, and fitness centre. It's the lowest entry point among the island's branded hotels.
This is not a resort; it's a hotel. You don't get the plantation atmosphere of the gated communities, and the north-central interior position means a drive for beach access. What you get is reliable, no-surprises rooms and adjacency to the Arthur Hills course, so an early morning round requires nothing more than a short drive across the parking areas. The position near the Bluffton bridge also simplifies reaching Hilton Head National Golf Club, Old South Golf Links, and Crescent Pointe Golf Club for groups mixing resort and mainland courses.
$88 to $175 per night. For golfers whose budget prioritises green fees over lodging, the Hampton Inn is the most direct way to redirect that spend toward the courses.
