Consistently Excellent Stays I’ve stayed at the Holiday Inn in Durham, NH on several occasions, and it’s always a pleasure. The hotel is consistently clean, convenient, and welcoming. The fitness center is one of the best I’ve seen in a hotel of this size—well-maintained and fully equipped. And the breakfast? Absolutely killer! It’s a great way to start the day. I look forward to returning again soon.

I didn’t like the price! Almost $400 for a double bed for one night in early June. Highway robbery! I can get a hotel in NYC for less than that!

Close to UNH to walk to... Good, clean hotel. Competent staff, though they were hardly ever at the front desk. Only saw someone once when I checked in...otherwise, no one was ever up front.

Meh. For $400 a night you'd at least think you'd have a clean room. Nope. Stained carpets, dirty windows....odd smell. Won't be staying again.
