Alright
The room was pretty clean but there were a lot of scuff marks on all the furniture. Carpet was worn. Everything seems pretty outdated and tired. Lamps were disassembled. The hallway floor was visibly dirty, had tracks from carts and luggage. Looked sticky and was pretty off putting. The staff was great, particularly the valet. Downstairs vault was pretty cool. Breakfast was delicious.

Cool hotel, needs a little spruce up
Great service, very cool setting (in an art gallery with loads of interesting work to see). Hotel needs a little freshening- loose fixtures, scuffed furniture, missing lightbulbs. But really great people. I'd stay there again.

Good location, very different with the art work to look at, but the "king" room was mostly filled by the bed. Two people in the room was too much. Kept running into each other. Only one seat. AC and fridge were very noisy. Plus traffic, racing motorcycles, multiple trains going by, not a restful night.

I had an incredibly memorable trip at the 21c Museum Hotel, Durham. As an artist and a world traveller visiting this hotel for the first time, I was so moved by the beautiful way in which the museum combines my life's passion for meaningful art and exploration. Jonh Blanco, Museum Manager gave us an incredibly moving and inspiring tour of the hotel's current exhibit "Refuge: Needing, Seeking, Creating Shelter" that is so relevant in our contemporary world. I was so moved by Jonh's centering of curiosity and generosity to invite me and my dear friend to the Creative Mornings Durham's serendipitous gathering at the hotel the next morning - a beautiful immersive multi-sensory experience of connecting with and hearing from some of the most creative people in Durham. The artful experience from the check-in time to my room decor to the museum tour and the creative gathering made for one of the most refreshingly inspiring and creative hotel stays for me. Thank you Jonh and your entire team! I wish more hotels are so stunningly imaginative and welcoming!

Not a bad place to stay at all. Everyone was very friendly. The museum and bank vault were very interesting. Location good -- just a short walk to the Durham Bull's baseball field, the Durham Food Court and other places of interest. The TV in my room did not work, but I wasn't there to watch TV.

Good Bones, Needs Work
The hotel is pretty well located in downtown Durham but it is showing it’s age; the ceiling light over the table turned off every 4-5 minutes before coming back on 30 seconds later, the mini-frig bubbled like an aquarium all night and the pull chain to raise and lower broke off in my hand the last morning I was there.
