When I checked in I was asked "Why are you in Durham" which was quite weird....in a suite that the air conditioning was loud and the shower both the shower knob fell off the wall when I turned the water on and the drain was clogged so water just filled up the to almost overflowing onto the bathroom floor....this hotel is beautiful but room was not up to the standard for this hotel..

There is nothing NOT to like there. It's one of the finest hotels at which I've ever stayed. Staff is primo, value is incredible, rooms are beautiful and in magnificent condition. They had a shuttle that allowed me to leave my car in the parking lot and not have to worry about parking in the wrong parking spaces. This hotel is a gem. I will ALWAYS stay there when I come back to visit my hometown of Durham. It's the finest hotel in the area. Much better than the Carolina Inn, and much less expensive. By paying for Washington Duke reservation in advance, I incurred a huge savings in the cost of the room.

We greatly appreciate your kind remarks about our staff, service and comfortable accommodations. We are already looking forward to your next stay! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! Anna Marie Lawson Director of Special Services
Washington Duke Inn is one of the finest, if not THE finest hotel at which I've ever stayed. Everything about the place is first rate. The staff is so friendly and helpful. I love that they have a free shuttle so I didn't have to drive my car around the campus and park it somewhere it might get ticketed because of my not understanding guest parking there. They're simply one of the greatest hotels ever. I also stayed at Carolina Inn (which was both more expensive and paled in comparison to Washington Duke, and Siena Hotel (same trip--three hotels) which was lovely.

A quick but wonderful respite
Pros:
Absolutely everything.
Cons:
The architectural style conjured up feelings of aristocracy with its dark furniture and deep colors. It fit the building but I prefer “light!”
Location:
The Inn is surrounded by its golf course and the Duke University buildings and gardens. Several historical sites are nearby as well.
My husband and I were thrilled with our overnight stay at the Washington Duke Inn. It was pricey but we splurged for our 50th anniversary. We live thirty minutes away from the site but it felt like we had traveled into the mountain lushness so lovely was the environment and grounds. This trip left us both with a lovely memory.

Dear Regina, We are truly honored that you selected the Inn to celebrate your 50th Anniversary. To hear that it was a wonderful respite is truly heartwarming. Thank you for allowing us to be the backdrop for such a special occasion. We hope you will return to make many more memories with us! Anna Marie Lawson Director of Special Services
NO A/C
Pros:
Definitely the premier place to stay in Durham, but getting a little dated.
Never been in a motel before where there was no setting on the thermostat to turn the a/c on. It was a FAN ONLY thermostat. I turned the wheel for the temp setting just to see/hear what happened. Nothing! I've stayed there many times and the a/c unit makes a loud "thunk" sound when the compressor comes on. Come to think of it, I think all the thermostats may have been that way. They are all very difficult to get the temp you want. Perhaps this one just didn't work at all. We've decided that for one night (medical overnight for DUMC) Washington Duke, the premier place to stay, just isn't worth the premium anymore. Sorry.

Dear Anonymous, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us. We sincerely apologize for the AC unit issues you experienced in the room. All of our guest rooms have adjustable thermostats. It sounds like this one might have had an issue with it if you were not getting your preferred temperature. Please feel comfortable to contact us if you ever have a problem. We have professional and courteous staff available 24-7 that can handle these issues. Again, please accept our sincere apology that your stay was not as we would have hoped. Sincerely,
Luxury at reasonable price
Pros:
The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
Cons:
The desserts on the dinner menu.
We live within an hour's drive and in the past have had the pleasure of dining at the Washington Duke's great restaurant, including afternoon tea. This time we needed accommodations to stay overnight and were not disappointed. This hotel is luxury all the way and worth every penny. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. We had a great time reviewing all the artwork and photos on the wall, a virtual museum to the Duke family and Duke University campus. We especially enjoyed the photos and memorabilia about Angier Biddle Duke and JFK. The desserts on the menu are bizarre though. I'd avoid those and just have ice cream if you must have dessert. One has peanut butter - really?! The only one that seemed possible was the chocolate caramel cake but it was way too sweet and oddly, large. The description said it included meringue and whipped cream which may have offset some of the sweetness but both of these were just candy cigarette sized dribbles and not really worth the mention. Then there was a "cookie" half the size of a quarter with the dish. Someone was trying to do something gourmet here but it misses the mark. Other than that, all entrees are excellent, sourced from local farms and vendors, and you will not regret ordering any of them.
