Top Duke University Hotel Reviews

Washington Duke Inn & Golf Club

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel with great staff! Room was clean and beautiful and our dinner at the bar restaurant was excellent! Joban is a fantastic server!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Univ Area Chapel Hill

10/10 Excellent

"1. Easy Check-in 2. Pleasant front desk 3. Got a quite room at the back of the hotel 4. Spacious 300 sq. ft. room with a good layout 5. Recently refurbished 6. Excellent Internet connectivity 7. On the downside, the breakfast needs more variety"

Millennium Hotel Durham

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Millennium. The room and hotel were very clean, well-maintained, and comfortable, and we could locate handy parking at all times. We found the lobby, restaurant, bar, and grounds quite attractive. We didn't avail ourselves of the pool, but it looked clean and appealing. The bar was enjoyable, although the bartender loaded the drinks with so much ice they ended up -very- watered down, so we didn't order any beyond the first. Overall, the positives far outweighed the negatives, so we'd be happy to stay here again."
