Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Durham, close to everything you need. The rooms offer a fantastic view and are spacious, but the noise from passing trains can be disruptive at night. The service is proactive, with a promise of a manager's call, and convenient amenities like dry cleaning and a welcome drink. The dining experience, especially for beef dishes, is top-notch. However, the price may not fully reflect the overall value provided.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, being in the Triangle area and right next to the DPAC and Durham Bulls stadium. The rooms were spacious with a great view, and the service was top-notch, even receiving a call from the manager. However, the dining options were a bit limited, but the welcome drink made up for it. The facilities were impressive with great amenities.
My stay at this hotel was a mix of great experiences and a few downsides. The location is fantastic, with plenty of restaurants nearby and being right next to the Durham Bulls stadium. The rooms had lovely views and were quite spacious and modern. However, being close to a railway line could be a bit noisy at times. The service was top-notch, with a promise from the manager to call and excellent laundry and housekeeping services. The lack of a welcome drink was a small letdown. Overall, I had a pleasant stay with minor inconveniences.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right next to popular attractions like DPAC & Durham Bulls stadium. The rooms were spacious and had a great view, featuring 2 double beds for extra comfort. The service was top-notch, even offering a manager call. The only downside was the noise from trains passing through at night, but it was manageable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms had a fantastic view with 2 double beds; they were clean, comfortable, and cozy. The location was convenient, just a short distance to the center of Durham. Although the trains passing in the night were a bit disruptive, being close to many concerts in Durham made up for it. I enjoyed an authentic Italian pizza at the dining area. The facilities were top-notch, with everything I needed for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is conveniently located between the trains coming through in the middle of the night, right next to the DPAC & Durham Bulls stadium. The rooms offer a great view with 2 double beds, but it would be nice if the price corresponded better with the value provided. The service includes a promise that a manager would call, and they offer dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and a welcome drink.
