Local Attractions
The city is an incubator for entrepreneurs, a pillar in the arts and film community and a historical charmer with architecture and festivals at every turn. It's home to a world class performing arts center (DPAC), the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, educational institutes such as Duke University and North Carolina Central University, and home to many fortune 500 companies in the Research Triangle Park. Durham was also named the Tastiest Town in the South by Southern Living magazine, so there is no shortage of great local restaurants, food trucks, and bars. Annual cultural events, such as the American Dance Festival (the most important modern dance festival in the country), Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, and Moogfest attract creative minds from across the country; while quirky happenings like the Art of Cool Fest (a jazz musical festival), are equally at home in the Bull City.

Property Description
The Durham Hotel was built as a uniquely designed mid-century modern hotel with the goal of providing a personalized experience through intentional touch points and genuine hospitality for each of our guests. In the rooms, your guests will find thoughtful amenities and inspired interior elements, including collaborations with local artisans such as Raleigh Denim, NC Made and Burt's Bees. All guests will enjoy a complimentary farmer's market breakfast daily along with fiber and wireless high speed internet access throughout their stay.The Durham Hotel is also a beautiful backdrop for any meeting or group event. With multiple event spaces available, finding the perfect fit for your exact occasion is easy. Board meetings, private screenings, small business brainstorms, or company parties – our state-of-the art facilities coupled with comfortable modern design and food and beverage.The seasonally changing menus highlight the abundance of high-quality ingredients grown and made by North Carolina farmers, cheesemakers, brewers, distillers, bakers, and fishermen who are longtime partners and friends.The breakfast, dinner, and Sunday brunch menus in the restaurant focus on elemental American flavors – ingredients like blue crab, heirloom apples, barnyard chicken, country ham, farmstead cheese, and fresh homemade butter – inspiring a comfortable, festive dining experience. With an all-day coffee shop serving Counter Culture Coffee and house-made pastries by day, transitioning into a restaurant serving melting pot and hotel classics by night, the dining room at The Durham is a vibrant all-day destination for guests and locals alike.The raw bar & small kitchen menu on the roof offers oysters, clams, and cured and raw fish and shellfish cocktails alongside snacks and shareable plates like picnic eggs and steak tartare. Daily seafood selections emphasize fisherman's favorites normally seen only on the coast, like porgy, sheepshead, and mackerel. In chillier months, the roof is enclosed, cozy wool blankets are on hand, and mugs of hot shellfish chowders, rich broths, and griddled sandwiches are on the menu. The drink list offers hand-crafted original cocktails and well-made classics with a rotating selection of local brewers and authentic wines from small family producers.Come and experience The Durham now.
