Top Carolina Theatre Hotel Reviews

The Durham Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good quality hotel in great location. The front desk team is very friendly and helpful. The decor is mid-century modern, so it looks like it is from a different era. That said, the carpet throughout the hotel could use a refresh."

Stylish Flat in DT Durham-Sep A/C-downtown walkable

8/10 Good

"Excellent location, close to downtown and all it's great coffee shops and restaurants. Property was very well maintained, clean and decorated with a very comfortable, homey feel. Owner communication was quick and pleasant. I would absolutely check for availability of this unit for my next trip to Durham."

Residence Inn Durham McPherson/Duke University Medical Cntr

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great location for visiting Duke University or Duke Hospital as the hotel is a short drive to either location. There are plenty of restaurants you could walk to as well. The property is clean and the breakfast is a perfect and convenient way to start the day."

Chic Craftsman, Walk Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This property was perfect for our stay in Durham. The owners truly thought about what it would be like for a guest to be staying there, and we had everything that we needed. It was beautifully decorated but not cluttered so there was plenty of room for our things. I appreciated being able to put things in the medicine cabinet, bureau drawers, etc. We loved the hotel-style soap and body wash pumps in the shower! Easy street parking right in front of the house. We often walked to our destinations as the location was very convenient. The best way I can describe it is that it was like being at home and at a hotel at the same time!"

Charming European-style Studio in the Historic Orenge Building, Downtown Durham.

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed staying at this beautiful place. The location was great and the host was up front about the nightclub next door so the only noise that bothered us were a few early morning city trucks. Parking garage across the street was convenient and we were able to walk to many shops, restaurants, and the farmer's market. Would recommend and would come back!"
