Desk staff were curt and did not seem responsive to my comments about the room. I had requested a particular room and was told it was not ready. When I made the reservation so was told it would be confirmed by email. This never happened. I had to call back and request it. Also, was told by the female clerk on checkout that I would receive copy of final bill NY email. I'm still waiting. We stat at the Inn four times or more a year. I do not know if I will be back or not.

Response from Anna Lawson, Other at Washington Duke Inn & Golf Club
Responded 2 days ago
We are very sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your most recent visit. We strive to provide excellent service to all of our guests. We fell short of this expectation with you and we sincerely apologize. We will be sure to share this review with our team so that we can learn from our mistakes. We try not to guarantee specific rooms as there are so many variables that can cause changes. This is a good training moment for our newer team members. As hard as it is to hear complaints, it only helps to make us better. We have learned, recently, that if a guest has ever unsubscribes to our mailings that our final folios will get rejected, no matter how many times we send it from our system. If you want to contact the hotel we can email you a separate hard copy. Unfortunately, without knowing your information I am unable to automatically do this for you and I’m very sorry for the inconvenience. We hope you will reconsider staying with us in the future. We hope to be able to show you that top notch service that we are known for. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We hope to welcome you back next time!

I took my 13 year old son and his friend for a weekend visit to campus to attend the basketball and football games. The Inn is excellent, service and food are always good, and the location is superior for anything taking place on the Duke campus.

Wonderful experience - the whole hotel has a very warm ambiance. The staff were all very kind and helpful. The room was clean and well-appointed. The location is perfect for walking to anything at Duke (reunions, etc), and the grounds and surrounding trail are beautiful.

Great location, service and meeting facilities. Has the ambiance of a high quality country club on the first floor. The rooms leave a lot to be desired. Lighting is very poor. The mattress and pillows were rock hard and uncomfortable. Towels had seen better days. The shower drained so slowly that you stood in a 1 1/2 inch pool. In short, we would only return for events hosted at the Inn.
