Verified reviews of The Lodge at Duke Medical Center

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Convenient to Duke"
Overall score4.0/ 5
The hotel is convenient to Duke Hospital and staff is friendly. Room is okay.
(Individual traveller, booked 1 room), from US flag
24-Apr-2025 Verified review, stayed from Wed Apr 23 to Thu Apr 24 2025 at a $140.00 average nightly rate.
"Happiest people on earth!"
Overall score5.0/ 5
The hotel itself is clean but old and is fine. The staff put it over the moon! People who stay here are usually visiting someone at Duke, or having serious testing done and it's hard but they are genuinely positive, upbeat people. That makes such a difference. Stay here to lighten your day.

"Complete Satisfaction"
Overall score5.0/ 5
My husband and I stayed here for the night because he was having surgery at Duke the next day. At check in, the staff was totally welcoming, down to earth and professional. The rooms were exceptionally clean and we recommend The Lodge for your place of rest whether you're staying one night or five nights. And to boot,the hospital was in walking distance.

"No rest after a lot of stress."
Overall score3.0/ 5
The cost was too much. Doors were slamming all night long we did not get the rest we needed for our ride home. Housekeeping knocked on the door at 10:56, I had to 11:00a to get out. My stays at your establishment in the past have been excellent so I was very disappointed especially for the money I paid.
