Top Sarah P. Duke Gardens Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn & Suites Durham near Duke University

10/10 Excellent

"Arrived a little early and was accommodated by getting my room 30 minutes early. The room was very clean and comfy. The bed was firm but comfortable and the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great but was good enough. We never made it down for breakfast so I can’t comment on it. Also lots of good eating choices within a few minutes drive. I would recommend this property if you are wanting a good hotel for an affordable price."
