Ideal location for business travelers
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Raleigh-Durham is located in a quiet business park, which is a good news for guests who are in the city for business. Downtown Durham is a ten-minute drive away, while downtown Raleigh is a 30-minute drive away. Moreover, the hotel is also close to the highway, so you'll have no trouble going to other locations.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms smell of smoke
Despite all rooms being smoke-free, some guests still smell cigarette smoke in their rooms. Make sure that you reserve a non-smoking room upon your booking. However, if you still find your accommodation unsatisfactory, ask for a room transfer.
negative:
Poor service at the restaurant
Some servers at the restaurant seemed more interested watching TV than serving you, while some are rude when talking to customers. You can report them to their managers if that's what they deserve. In addition, remember that there are many restaurants and other dining options around.
negative:
Minor issue with the pools
Water in the pool is often too cold. However, this is the only issue voiced by guests with the said facility, which can be easily ignored.
