My wife and I stayed here one night after attending a concert at the Durham Performing Arts Center. It is a very nice property and well located for persons who are going to the DPAC or a game at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park. The room was clean and the hallway was quiet. I was very impressed with how comfortable... more

We were shocked at how helpful the staff was here. Requested a rollaway at the desk and it made it up to the room before we did! Directions, shuttle driver, info, help printing boarding passes, concierge, bartender...it never ended. The front desk people could not be stumped and if they could of, there was someone right there to back up.... more

I've never had a bad trip to this Marriott. The staff is always on top of check in and the room is clean, enjoyable and well-decorated. Bathroom is nicely appointed. Parking across the street is fine -- just a short walk across a road which is never that busy. Restaurant and bar are good and common areas excellent. It's a... more

The highs: The room (8th floor) was very nice, looked to be newly remodeled. The location is very convenient to Duke University and downtown Durham. The lows: The parking situation is pathetic. On the night we stayed, we were told to park in the hotel's parking lot which is across the street and down an alley behind some buildings. It... more

I stayed at this hotel during a recent business trip to Durham. The parking mentioned in other reviews is not that bad. It's very close. The staff was very nice and helpful. Most hotels have HD TVs now, but this place actually had crystal clear HD channels to go along with it..... even HDNet!! This is, without questions, the best... more

We stayed here on a trip to visit family in Durham. The room was okay and the crib was passable. The problem was that they did not have the type of room we reserved. So, at check-in they informed us of this and upgraded us at no extra charge to the top floor. Those who stay on the top floor... more

I chose this hotel only for its proximity to the Durham Performing Arts Center, but was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the property and service. The first thing I asked for was directions to the Peforming Arts Center. The desk clerk gave me a map and showed the directions, but added that the hotel has a courtesy shuttle both... more

Staff looked as if they didn't know what they were doing during check in, which took much longer than it needed to. They seemed thrown by the fact that a friend booked the reservation (as part of a wedding group). The parking lot 2 lots away across the street was inconvenient, and the bellman (who was extremely nice and helpful)... more

This hotel far exceeded our expectations in terms of comfort and value. This is the first time I have ever stayed in a hotel and wanted to know the brand of the mattress and sheets because they were so comfortable. We loved the plasma TV too. Overall, we were very pleased by our stay at the Marriot. more
