    We always choose to stay at Forty Winks Guest House & Residence whenever we are in Durham. the property is fairly clean. - the breakfast is amazing, incredible, and reasonably priced. - the location is stunning, close to the center and night life. - Situated atop a brow on South St, we enjoyed the view of the River Wear, Durham Castle, and Durham Cathedral. - There are two exceptional restaurants nearby.

    I recently stayed at Forty Winks in Durham for a weekend getaway. The interior design was absolutely stunning, with a unique and stylish decor that really stood out. The room itself was immaculate, comfortable, and had all the amenities you could ask for, including a Sony TV and Nespresso coffee maker. The breakfast was exceptional, with delicious food prepared by a chef from the owner's top-rated restaurant, Zen. The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding a personal touch to the already incredible experience. I highly recommend Forty Winks for a memorable and luxurious stay.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.
