Hilton Garden Inn Outer Banks/Kitty Hawk  

On Kitty Hawk’s oceanfront, this beach hotel puts you steps from Kitty Hawk Pier and Outer Banks beaches. Minutes from the Wright Brothers Monument, Aycock Brown Welcome Center and Jockey’s Ridge State Park, it’s ideal for family-friendly seaside stays.

Choose from 180 ocean-view rooms with private furnished balconies, refrigerators, microwaves and flat-screen TVs. Rooms pair simple coastal décor with oversized work desks and comfy signature beds — great for couples, families and remote days by the sea.

Soak in an indoor heated pool with whirlpool or the seasonal outdoor pool and tiki bar, cast off from the on-site fishing pier, or let the kids loose in the arcade and playroom. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings, use the concierge and gift shop, and take advantage of free self-parking.

Complimentary high-speed wired and wireless internet, a 24-hour business center, express check-out and about 3,700 sq ft of event space with meeting rooms make this a solid pick for conferences and meetings.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve American dishes with cooked-to-order breakfasts available daily (fee applies). Limited-hours evening room service, a seasonal outdoor tiki bar and a 24-hour convenience market keep things convenient and casual.
