Staying at this hotel was a delight! The beautiful and welcoming room in the wonderfully restored townhouse set a cozy tone, but it was a small downside not to find ice in the ice bucket. The service was exceptional, with the staff going out of their way to show us around and provide great friendly assistance. The location, in the classy outskirts of Durham, was perfect for quiet relaxation yet conveniently close to excellent walks and dining options. Though the dining experience had some room for improvement, the overall stay was pleasant.

The hotel had smaller rooms than expected from the website photos, but with a semi-fake yet charming semi-gothic ambiance. The bath in the middle of the room was a unique experience. The rooms were individually unique but too small for two people, lacking surfaces for convenience.

The location was superb, only a 5-minute walk from Durham city center and close to excellent walks/runs along the river. It was chic and cool.

The dining experience was beautiful with a good selection of dishes. The themed rooms were lovely, and the penthouse and garden room with a hot tub were worth looking at.
