This hotel is extremely nice. The staff was very friendly, the grounds beautiful, my room overlooked the golf path and beginning of the golf course. The room was decorated in a very classic style, which is not my taste, but very nice non the less. Housekeeping was awesome. they saw I used a Tea out of the K-cup dispenser and... More

We recently visited the Duke campus with our son. It was originally suggested that we stay at the Millennium hotel... which we checked-in and checked-out of after walking into the room <see review of the Millennium, caution>. I'm not sure if the Washington Duke Inn was AMAZING or if we were just so releived to be out of the first... More

We had a quick trip centered around activities at Duke University. The hotel was very accommodating. From shuttle service to prevent walking to having umbrellas to loan for the day, they went out of their way to anticipate needs. Great experience and the bathroom was first class.

My past experiences at the Washington Duke Inn have been positive but this recent visit was disappointing. When I checked in, the receptionist was extremely rude and unhelpful. Unfortunately it set the tone for the remainder of my visit and I was unable shake how poorly I was treated. The hostesses at the restaurant were too busy chatting to seat... More

We have stayed at Duke Inn 5 times so we know it is consistent in guest quality of experience from ambiance, decor of rooms, bath, public areas, beautiful grounds with abundant flowers and dining expeiences.

Very elegant rooms and common areas, although rooms could be larger given the cost. Lots of comfortable stuffed chairs and sofas suitable for reading or conversation. Excellent restaurant and bistro. Abundant self parking. Outdoor dining on patio is available overlooking a putting green. Very friendly and helpful staff. RGinTally

We spent 1night here with some friends, as we were going to an exhibit at the art museum. The hotel was lovely, and our rooms very comfortable, luxurious bathrooms and super comfy beds. We got very good rates as it was out of season, and although the view from the bedroom was not anything to write home about, I would... More

We were in with a family wedding. The hotel staff was awesome. In particular, the housekeeping staff was always there to greet us, to ask if we needed anything, etc. Prices were good. Food delicious. And we loved the golf course. We'll definitely return on any future visits to Durham. Everything/everyone was just spot on.

I was here for a conference, the property itself is beautiful, the golf course and all the trees and beautiful outdoor areas make it very serene. The staff was very friendly, the rooms were clean and I was impressed. The rooms were a bit overpriced as well as the food in the restaurant and room service but that is what... More

Have contacted the Washington Duke Inn on two different occasions to inquire about reservations. We always travel with our furry baby. This facility advertises that it is "pet friendly" however I have not found them to be friendly at all. They should be considered "Pet Tolerant" maybe. You cannot leave your pet unattended in the room and they require a... More
