The Carolina Inn

My wife and I first visited the hotel while attending an event and were immediately drawn to its ambiance and charm. We loved it so much that we decided to return just two weeks later for Valentine's weekend with our two young daughters. The staff is exceptional, and the rooms are spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. Without a doubt, this has become our go-to place to stay whenever we visit Chapel Hill.

This is a magical hotel. It's an excellent place for a conference; the rooms are nice, the staff is great, and the location is just right. I loved the fire pit out by the bar. I hope to come back every year for many years to come. The hotel bar is also very nice.

Most comfortable bed ever! So quaint and clean....feels like home! Check was easy, staff very friendly and room and common area cozy, quaint and comfortable! Walkable to all things UNC! Bar has great drinks and the food was amazing! Will for sure be back for more UNC games!

A great traditional university hotel property. Dillian at the front desk was the best - he remembered our family from a year ago and worked to arrange our rooms all in a co-located cluster on the same floor. Quality of the food at Crossroads was good, but staffing levels were light, resulting in long waits.

Situated in the heart of UNC, depending the time of day and year, if you go walking, you may be walking with scads of college kids attending the U of NC. The Inn itself is a decently large hotel with a small feel. Well appointed, from the hallways to the rooms, the inn has a decidedly "old Southern" charm and feel. My King room was comfortable. In-room Nespresso, cable (no streaming though), and a safe. Lots of large, fluffy pillows and a good working a/c. There is an onsite restaurant, which I dined in twice but it felt understaffed and rushed both times. Despite amazing weather, they were not allowing anyone to sit out on the patio. There is a pantry with some cold sandwich and breakfast options. But, being a college town, your other, off-site dining options, particularly if you don't have a vehicle, are limited to typical fast food college fare. But, it's a very nice hotel, esp. if you are visiting the school.
