Best Durham Hotels

The only hotel in Durham, next to UNH, has a parking lot, has a complimentary breakfast, is surrounded by an American restaurant, and the room is clean and safe.

Great place to stay. The receptionist was super helpful as our flight was delayed and we got in around 3am. The room was quiet, clean, and well furnished. Didn't have a chance to use the pool or gym. The continental breakfast was decent but just enough for what I needed. There's a Dunkin right next door if you need more for breakfast. I'd definitely stay again.

You can buy things at the supermarket and make some simple dishes.

I wish I could give this hotel 5 stars, but there were a few too many tiny problems. First, the room was great, small but more than adequate for a couple. There was a hair dryer, an iron, loads of closet space. Very quiet, even though I was near the elevators. Plenty of towels. Pet friendly, as I saw, but did not hear, dogs. But the bedside clock was unplugged. Guests should not have to crawl under the nightstand to plug in the clock. The tv remote batteries were dead. Again, a simple fix of going down to the front desk, but annoying. The mattress was far too soft. At one point in time, I sold mattresses for a living. We never had anything approaching this level of softness on the sales floor. Mattresses should be upgraded to a medium firmness at the least. The current mattresses are too high for shorter people, and too soft for anyone with a mobility issue to maneuver on. The lack of USB ports is also a minus. Perhaps new bedside clocks that have ISB ports included? Or at least a more accessible outlet than behind the mini-fridge or under the nightstand or randomly on a wall where you would have to leave your electronics in the floor in the direct travel path of someone getting into bed. The staff were great, pleasant, polite, cheerful, and helpful. Cannot say enough good things about the staff. Just wish the management backed them up with better infrastructure.

I was traveling with my son to visit colleges, and made a reservation on the fly, on my phone from the car. I inadvertently made it for the wrong night, was charged as a no-show. When we arrived on the night we needed, we had no reservation. The staff had 2 rooms left, made one suite available at the original rate we booked (we mistakenly booked a weeknight standard room and stayed in a suite on the weekend that should have been much higher). The manager of the property was extremely gracious and offered a complete refund with no questions or ”corporate hassles”. And not only that, the stay was great, the room clean and breakfast was perfect. All front desk staff were very understanding and helpful for what could have been a stressful and disastrous college tour experience. Thank You Comfort Inn Dover!

Rooms were great, spacious, nice staff, hot showers. Everything was clean and a bunch of room. A lot of pillows which I love. The staff was very helpful when we discovered there was no ice machine. They got ice from the kitchen for us. The breakfast was amazing. Alot of choices and a great deal of vegan choices as well. Would definitely stay here again.
