Sandwiched between Sandringham and Brighton on the beautiful Victoria coastline and conveniently located close to central Melbourne, the white sandy beaches and relaxing seaside vibes of Hampton have attracted sunshine-seeking holidaymakers since the mid-19th century. Hampton is better known for its shopping and eating these days – with over 50 cafes and bars lining the famous Hampton Street – but it’s still a great place to shack up for a beachside vacay, and a hip coastal hub from which to explore the best of the Melbourne sites and attractions. Whatever your inspiration, read on to discover our pick of the best hotels in Hampton – bookable on Culture Trip.

Boutique Stays – Hampton Lookout, for stunning terrace views

Fully kitted out with everything you need for a self-contained stay – such as laundry, a big TV with Foxtel, two off-street parking spots and an arrival hamper full of goodies – the icing on the cake is the massive private terrace, where you can kick back in the outdoor lounge and soak up the sun and bay views while cooking up a feast on the barbecue.
