Hampton Inn Bakersfield-Central

history, hospitality and great country music...welcome to the Hampton Inn Bakersfield-Central.It's where the old west meets some of California's most beautiful agricultural scenery. Bakersfield came into being when, back in 1863, former California state senator Colonel Thomas Baker moved here and grew a field of alfalfa for travelers to feed their horses. Newspapers from all over the state encouraged travelers to visit Baker's field and to feed their stock. Today it's one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. and a cradle of California agriculture. It's also a perfect spot for travelers to stop and cool their heels a bit after driving along either the 5 or 99 freeways from the north and south.If you're looking for a hotel in Bakersfield, the Hampton Inn® Bakersfield-Central hotel is located in the center of town, close to restaurants, business centers and entertainment.
