Top Sarah P. Duke Gardens Hotel Reviews

21c Museum Hotel Durham

8/10 Good

"Ordered breakfast via room service the only thing I would change is ordering scrambled eggs everything else was great. The room is dark and has sensual vibes, like a closed museum. Not great for pictures any time of day but the hotel is super secure and cozy I will stay again"

The Lodge at Duke Medical Center

8/10 Good

"Can’t beat the parking and convenience to Duke University Hospital. I stay often and will continue to do so. Unfortunately there is almost no sound proofing between the rooms. Expect to enjoy your neighbor’s conversation and TV. For this price range it is below par. Even the breakfast has good options and fair prices."

Hilton Garden Inn Durham/University Medical Center

10/10 Excellent

"First time at this property. We loved everything about it — the cleanliness, the space, the proximity to stores, and the friendly staff. We’ll definitely be back!"

Courtyard Durham Near Duke University/Downtown

8/10 Good

"The staff was great. The young lady at the front desk was very nice. The carpet in the hallway looks old and stained. The shower on first glance looked clean but once inside you can see black mold around the fixtures and edge of tub. Sheets felt odd like they were pilled. All in all an okay stay. Very near to the interstate and within walking distance of two nice restaurants."
