    My recent stay at the Durham was a pleasant one! Located in the heart of Durham, this hotel sets you back in the 60s era. The storefront with high pillars connects to the small lobby, which opens up to a full service restaurant. The rooftop is a great sweeping view of the small town skyline and a perfect setting for a beautiful sunset. Libations crafted in this hotel are all made from local ingredients and vendors. The sleeping quarters offer spacious resting serenity equipped with comfortable beds, crisp linens, and technology for daily use. Wifi is available, and there are no USB connections on the hardware in the rooms. The staff I encountered during my stay were fabulous, from the team at the rooftop restaurant and bar to the in-house hospitality service (fresh towels and clean linens daily, room service is tidy) and daily interaction with the front desk and concierge, their welcoming was warm. Valet is no longer available, but a parking garage is located offsite and only a few steps away. Weekend parking is free, and the street parking is also an option, although limited around the vicinity. Stop by the first-floor coffee bar for your morning locally sourced brew and breakfast pastry! I did knock off a star specifically for the space in the 1st floor restaurant. While the era and vibe are appreciated, I hope Management will visit the condition of the furniture and work on replacement and upkeep. The seats are weathered leather and dated, it needs to be cleaned and conditioned. The stains are immensely off-putting. I enjoyed my stay and will definitely keep The Durham as an option when in the area, especially if alternative AirBnBs are limited.

    Great check in process provided by super front desk staff. Excellent amenities in a thoroughly enjoyable, renovated & reimagined nicely updated hotel. Comfortable, quiet, and most importantly clean room with good bedding and cozy bed. Valet filled up fast on a sat night with a bustling roof top restaurant but we were well taken care of. Excellent coffee shop in the lobby and great fresh grounds delivered to the door for in room brewing. Prompt courteous valet.

    We had my sister's birthday brunch there this morning and it was wonderful! Peacock met us outside and helped my sister in [she is in a wheelchair]. The hostess was welcoming, and our server, Mars, was a true delight. The Bellinis were yummy and all of the food was delicious! The portions were large and the plating was beautiful and the taste was on pointe for everything. We ordered bananas foster pancakes, stuff French toast, and breakfast fried rice. Thank you, Durham Hotel Restaurant!
