Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Great place to stay."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We stayed at the 21c Museum hotel in Durham for one night for a wedding and were very impressed. Front desk clerks were very welcoming, hotel was so fun with the artwork and visited the vault. The room was spacious, very clean and bathroom was amazing.. so much room compared to other hotels. Great location walked to a nice bakery in the morning for pastry and coffee. Would stay there again!

Wonderful service! Delightful and interested staff, especially the waitress in the dining room. I can't remember her name (African American who wore big circle earrings). She is terrific and due a big raise!
