Reviews for Millennium Hotel Durham
Review 1:We had to drive to the room and hop over a small wall to get to the door. There was a lot of construction happening which they should have warned us about. My luggage was delayed and the only amenity provided was shampoo and a soap bar. It was a very old and dirty entry with an old elevator that took a long time but the stair door was locked which I think is a violation? Staff could have cared less. Should have realized this when they left me on hold for 15 minutes when I tried to book.
Review 2:The location was close to Duke
Review 3:I ice machines were not always working and the key door entrances did not always work. I had to use other entrances to get in twice out of my three night stay.
Review 4:Everyone was very helpful. Service was good. Really liked the size of my room and the relaxing area to use my internet.
Review 5:Very outdated , bed was not good the pillows are a joke , I've stayed in nicer hotels at half the cost of this one. Probably a really nice hotel ten years ago
Review 6:Beautiful hotel
Review 7:Dusty, dirty carpet and old lumpy bed. Mismanaged. Food encrusted room service trays sat out in the hall for two full days. Hall reeked of rotting food.
Review 8:The cafe was decent. Good coffee.
Review 9:The wifi was poor. I was told to call tech support and they couldn't help. Tech support just said the wifi was not working in that room. Nothing was resolved. The hotel is old and rooms are in need of repair. Location is great-close to duke campus.
Review 10:A long walk to my room...Décor maybe needs a little refreshening...but clean, comfortable enough.
Review 11:Proximity to Duke U. Campus (where conference was being held); very gracious front desk staff; pool & Jacuzzi open late, spacious rooms
Review 12:Wi-if did not work in the room. My daughter had to sit in the hall at the end of the hallway or we had to go to the lobby PLUS often when we could get the signal, their wi-if was maxed out with the number of users and we could not get access at all.
Review 13:Staff was VERY friendly and helpful!
Review 14:Printers in th business center did not work. Restaurant and bar were understaffed. My room service for breakfast card was never picked up from my door.
Review 15:Location was good for my needs. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Shuttle drivers were friendly and helpful!
Review 16:First 2 rooms were dirty (used soap and wash cloth, opened half empty bottled water). For the 3rd attempt, I asked the manager to escort me to the room and confirm its cleanliness. This was at 9 pm, after a 10 hour drive, 2 small kids over Duke graduation weekend.
Review 17:Pool, convenient location to Duke and breakfast.
Review 18:The room I was originally assigned was really dirty and smelled like cigarette. I requested to change room, and everything was dirty in the room. The bathroom was filled with mildew, unclean. it was just the worst hotel I stayed in given the brand name. They need to do a much better job at keeping this hotel chain clean.
Review 19:Plenty of parking spaces
Review 20:Where do I begin? The Millenium Hotel, set in 1970's, made famousby 'The Shining', was in no way worth the $100+ spent to stay.I received boils from sitting in the hot tub aka "spa". Holesin walls. Contemplated sleeping on floor out of fright to catch bedbugs game.
Review 21:Well, the look on the picture advertised and outside was something Ireally liked.
Review 22:Parking can be a challenge when they are fully booked.... maids didn't come every day unless asked.
Review 23:Great location to Duke medical center, right off main highways.... 10 minutes to everything.
Review 24:Rooms were horrible: wallpaper peeling; utility covers fallen off walls. sinks so low my dog could drink from them. Smelly; smoke odors; furniture beaten. Looks more like an dirty frat house than a hotel. I would rather stay at a Budget Inn. They should charge $9/night instead of $99
Review 25:Nothing
Review 26:When I called the hotel after I checked out to inquire about the potential billing, the staff said the incidental charge would credit back to my account after the transaction was complete. I never had this show up before and it was not on my receipt, so being informed ahead of time would keep me from feeling like a potential scandal is occurring.
Review 27:Spacious room, cleanliness, comfortable bed, and decent towels (not hard).
Review 28:The price of the meal was a bit much. There was nothing extravagant about the food that was offered. The rooms were outdated. The hotel needs to invest more in the accommodations.
Review 29:i liked that we were able to have a private room for our family to dine during the Thanksgiving buffet offered by the Millennium.
Review 30:Very friendly and helpful staff, great restaurant, and convenient location on Duke campus. The $6/day shuttle service was great - provided transport all around campus all day. Nice amenities, good value for the money.
Review 31:The rooms were dated. The toilet seat was old and bumpy. There was no microwave or frig in the room. The ice machine on our floor was out of ice or just didn't work. I don't think I will stay there again. We left and went to the Hilton. It is a much nicer hotel.
Review 32:The staff was outstanding. The location was good as well. The outside of the property is elegant.
Review 33:Old facilities that needed repair and upkeep. Rusted door hinges, chipped and stained bathroom grout. Musty, smoke and moldy smell throughout hallways and rooms. Sagging carpet that needed restretching/replacing. Disappointing and too expensive for these conditions.

Review 89:Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Overall a wonderful stay!
Review 90:They boosted the rate. I had a confirmation. They "added" all sorts of fees AFTER I checked out. They put a $5.00 bottle of water in your room and charge you for it whether you drink it or not. You are charged for internet in your room and I guess I was charged extra for a poorly working shower. Extremely disappointed. Doubt I will stay there again. Don't know how I can book at one cost and then get stuck with a much higher rate.

Review 93:Shuttle service readily available Staff was friendly Nice pool
Review 94:Breakfast service is glacially slow. This is my fourth or fifth stay at the hotel and the service is always slow. For some reason, bar service, including food, is quick and efficient.
Review 95:The hotel is conveniently located to the Duke campus' and to downtown Durham. It is well maintained and comfortable.
Review 96:The cost of the food in the hotel. We did not want to drive to eat dinner so we ate at the hotel. It was very expensive. We live on a budget and the food really took a lot out of it. We checked locations of other restaurants and there were none close to the hotel. We had to wait until after our doctors appointment the next morning to eat breakfast because the cost of breakfast was also expensive.
