Fodor's Expert Review Carolina Inn
211 Pittsboro St., Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 27516, USA Fodor's Choice
The only hotel located on the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill, this century-old historic property features modern amenities in a charming setting. Built in 1924 and designed by award-winning architect Arthur C. Nash, who designed a number of other university landmarks, the inn has a rich history with UNC families. Historic photos of the university and its people line the hallways and serve as decor for the tastefully decorated rooms, which feel historic but not dated, thanks to marble-and-glass bathrooms and thoughtful updates. The inn's restaurant, Crossroads, offers classic Southern-inspired fare and afternoon tea.
