The woman that checked us in was very rude and charged us for an extra day so that we could check in early. With only two hours left on that day. I will never stay with your property’s again.

Alright
The room was pretty clean but there were a lot of scuff marks on all the furniture. Carpet was worn. Everything seems pretty outdated and tired. Lamps were disassembled. The hallway floor was visibly dirty, had tracks from carts and luggage. Looked sticky and was pretty off putting. The staff was great, particularly the valet. Downstairs vault was pretty cool. Breakfast was delicious.

Cool hotel, needs a little spruce up
Great service, very cool setting (in an art gallery with loads of interesting work to see). Hotel needs a little freshening- loose fixtures, scuffed furniture, missing lightbulbs. But really great people. I'd stay there again.

I had an incredibly memorable trip at the 21c Museum Hotel, Durham. As an artist and a world traveller visiting this hotel for the first time, I was so moved by the beautiful way in which the museum combines my life's passion for meaningful art and exploration. Jonh Blanco, Museum Manager gave us an incredibly moving and inspiring tour of the hotel's current exhibit "Refuge: Needing, Seeking, Creating Shelter" that is so relevant in our contemporary world. I was so moved by Jonh's centering of curiosity and generosity to invite me and my dear friend to the Creative Mornings Durham's serendipitous gathering at the hotel the next morning - a beautiful immersive multi-sensory experience of connecting with and hearing from some of the most creative people in Durham. The artful experience from the check-in time to my room decor to the museum tour and the creative gathering made for one of the most refreshingly inspiring and creative hotel stays for me. Thank you Jonh and your entire team! I wish more hotels are so stunningly imaginative and welcoming!

I would stay there again.
Not a bad place to stay at all. Everyone was very friendly. The museum and bank vault were very interesting. Location good -- just a short walk to the Durham Bull's baseball field, the Durham Food Court and other places of interest. The TV in my room did not work, but I wasn't there to watch TV.

Every employee I ran into was extremely pleasant. The tour of the “Vault” was awesome. This place must’ve been an old bank. Good location to walk the town.
