Insider Tips
The ExtrasAt the Carolina Inn, say "I do" under stately oaks and magnolia trees and follow with a reception of white-gloved butlers passing around beverages and hors d'oeuvres.

My family always tries to visit Crossroads ( in the Carolina Inn ) for at least one meal when we visit Chapel Hill. Over the years we've had lunch, dinner and Sunday Brunch. We are always made to feel "at home" in this wonderful historic building, and never disappointed with our meal choice. For the quality, the prices are reasonable. You can take your whole family, or go with your spouse for a romantic evening. It doesn't get any better than this. The "taking care of" starts with the valet parking and just doesn't stop, every body is so nice ( old southern manners to match the old southern building ?)
Pros: unique ambiance, southern charm, 4-star food
Cons: none really

in the heart of Chapel Hill. Close to the university and to all games fball, bball, etc. A block from Franklin Street and across the street from campus. The staff is very friendly and helpful from the bellmen/valet to the front desk and concierge. They have a small fitness center on site, but access to a 24 hour fitness center a couple miles away. The hotel restuarant, Crossroads, is impeccable! The rooms can be small as with any historic hotel. If you get in late request a handicaped room and if you have the money go with a suite - they are refurnished and will take your breath away. A must stay if you are in Chapel Hill. Make reservations early in the Spring and Summer they fill up here quick. And unless you've booked a year out, forget getting in here for football season!
Pros: Great historic hotel, Great location, Luxurious common area
Cons: Bit pricey
