Second Stop, First-Class Service

This was the second stop on my itinerary, and after a truly awful experience at the previous hotel, checking in to the Marriott Durham City Center was a breath of fresh air. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and taken care of. A special thank you to the evening front desk staff he was incredibly kind, efficient, and professional. After a stressful start to my trip, his friendly demeanor and quick check-in process immediately put me at ease. It made a huge difference and set the tone for the rest of my stay. I truly appreciate how he helped turn things around and made this part of the trip completely stress-free. The entire staff throughout the hotel was friendly and attentive. The amenities were excellent. I especially enjoyed having a Starbucks on-site for a convenient morning coffee. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Overall, my experience here was top-notch. Thank you again to the team, especially the evening front desk associate, for your kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend this hotel and will absolutely stay again when I’m in the area.

Great Hotel in Walking Distance to DPAC

We stayed 1 night to see a concert at the DPAC. The hotel was in an easy walking distance, and right across from a main square where there were boutiques, places to eat, and general local activity. We found the area to be clean, safe, and interesting to spend time before our concert. The hotel was great - clean, quiet, and great breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.
