Had a great time at the Durham Hotel. The elevator was a little nerve wracking but everything else was great. Service was excellent and everything we needed was in walking distance.

It was a good night's stay. The food in the cafe was excellent for dinner, the service attentive. A minor problem was addressed swiftly and well. We will return.

Overnight stay for a concert.

Came for a concert at the Carolina Theater & it was literally a 5 minute walk. Great minimalist boutique hotel. Spacious room. Lobby had a cool mid-century feel. Very friendly staff. Fun rooftop bar with cool views. Would definitely stay here again.

Convenient Location

The staff and team were all exceptionally friendly and helpful and the location is about as good as it gets conveniently located to all the best downtown spots. The lighting in the room was a bit of a challenge, no way to keep a light on by the bed to turn off when you go to bed without good all the way to the door and walking in the dark. The switch by the bed and lights by the bed all only portrayed by the door switch. Minor but annoying inconvenience. Someone upstairs was very loud it sliced like they were throwing furniture around the room at all hours of the night and morning so i has a rough night of sleep.

One of the Best

One of the best stays we've had anywhere. The hotel staff were helpful and friendly (getting us a bottle of champagne when they found out it was our anniversary), and the room was great. Thanks for a great stay.
