Washington Duke Inn & Golf Club

We have started staying here for medical appointments at Duke. This is by far our favorite hotel in the Durham area.

Everything about my visit was top shelf. Reasonable price (although not cheap), the value is there. Clean, nice, high quality, and great staff.

Love the Washington Duke Inn. It’s beautiful, and very personable. I’ve been staying here for 4 years.

We splurged and stayed at the WD while in town for a Duke bball game. It's an iconic property and I'd recommend staying at least once while visiting Duke. Location is a ten min walk to the west campus and all of the sports facilities. It's an older hotel so some things lacking. The issues I had was the poor communication with the front desk evening shift. I had arranged three times to have our rollaway set up as we were arriving late and of course it wasn't. We had to wait an hr for delivery - midnight. The front desk didn't share any details upon checkin. Nothing about wifi, am coffee or game room. The second night there was no hot water. When I called down to report it she said they were aware and were working on fixing it. I couldn't believe they hadn't notified guests until you called and complained. Virtually allowing guests to jump into a cold shower only to discover no hot water as I did. They eventually sent a text. It wasn't fixed until 1am, so everyone had to go without a shower.. after walking 7 miles around campus and enjoying a sweaty Cameron basketball game. It was fine, but I was surprised management didn't offer any compensation for the inconvenience. The best part of our stay was the housekeeping staff and the breakfast staff. Housekeeping straightens up the room as if you're staying at The Plaza! The buffet is delicious and the chef's and servers make it a wonderful experience. I am happy we tried it, although very pricey. Unfortunately we won't be back.

Professional, pleasant staff. The downside is the hotel needs a makeover. Tired. Public areas are fine but our bed/pillows were not comfortable.

Loved the hotel. Went to a Duke game. It's location is great. History of hotel is interesting. Loved the Bull Durham Bar.

beautiful setting, comfortable accommodations. with all the business travel it's easy to forget how nice the little extra amenities are!

Great location as well as a quality hotel. I really can’t find anything I don’t like about the Washington Duke

This hotel is very nice but it’s very outdated. Just needs some overall maintenance: paint on the doors, just a face lift. The amenities we’re average. Really wished we would have at least had a mini fridge in the room. Bathrooms are average for the price tag your expecting the Biltmore but I would have been happier at just a Hyatt or Marriot.
