“Disappointed”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

This Marriott did not meet my expectation. The staff was not particularly welcoming or accommodating. The coffee was not drinkable, so I had to go to a local coffee house each morning for a decent cup of coffee. The saving quality here was the room cleanliness.

“Downtown Durham Marriott”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

Giving this place two thumbs up. We went there for my son's wedding and he had arranged a block of rooms at a discount (which does help my liking the place). We were booked in a corner room with overlooked the center city area - not that center city is much to rave about. The room was excellent with large... More

“Didn't get to stay here even with a reservation”

Reviewed 18 April 2013 via mobile

It was like a Seinfeld sketch. I made the reservation about a month ago. I drove 3 hours arriving to be told that there was no room for me. That's what a reservation guarantees though. They did put me up for free at another hotel and bought me dinner but it is the principle that when you make a reservation,... More

“Stay Downtown in Durham”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

We like to stay places that allow us to park the car and not move it again until it's time to go home. Concert tickets for DPAC gave us an excuse to stay at this Marriott in the middle of Durham. Like most Marriotts, it's very nice. We had a big room with a nice view. As a bonus, the... More

I signed up for TripAdvisor just to write this review hoping that a little bit of public exposure will push this hotel into cleanliness! What an odd hotel.

“Great location for a great hotel.”

Reviewed 14 March 2013

Great room, very well appointed, clean, spacious and very comfortable. The staff, including Jackie Jones at the front desk, were well trained, sincere and hard working. The hotel is conveniently located downtown with plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it highly.
