The Lodge at Duke Medical Center

Breakfast was fine- prices not exorbitant like some hotels. I have never been in a cleaner hotel. I was unaware of the scope of the hotel and found the staff exceptional- from the lovely ladies at the front desk, to the lovely lady at breakfast and the great guy Hadmid, who drove the shuttle. The employees are like quasi social workers ( which I am)- they have to have empathy, compassion, intelligence and understanding for the terrible things that happen at the hospital and to the families. So often these folks are alone and fighting battles with their partners across the street and when they come back ( home for so many) to the hotel they need to vent and the staff is there for them. We were there for a basketball game and were struck by the awesome devotion exhibited by staff. They all deserve a raise. I did say to the staff that I hope never to need their services (medical lodging) , but feel comforted that they are there. Thank you to the staff and owners for being cognizant of the needs of people who are suffering.

Staff was very friendly, rooms were clean and well appointed. We didn't have any problems with noise, linens were very comfortable, slept well.

Great location for visits to Duke hospital. Free shuttle was most welcome to get where I needed to go. Location was convenient to restaurants and shopping.

We stayed at The Lodge because my husband had eye surgery at Duke. The hotel was very good but the real jewel was Janelle! She was amazing, she got a wheel chair for my husband for both arrival and departure. She gave us cookies and was very friendly besides being helpful. We can't say enough about our experience with her! Thank you, Janelle!

The Lodge was in a great location for our trip. It's only a few minutes away from the DPAC which was the focus of our trip. If your intended destination is Duke University Hospital, it is in direct diagonal eyesight of The Lodge. The staff we met were incredibly nice, helpful, and pleasant at check-in and check-out. The room was ready when we arrived and very clean. The room rate was also very affordable. I can highly recommend The Lodge and look forward to staying there again!
