Unparalleled Service & Attention to Detail
The JB Duke Hotel – named after James Buchanan “J.B.” Duke – was built in 1989 to serve the dining and accommodation needs of Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business. Following extensive renovations, the space was reimagined as a sleek, modern hotel in early 2017, solidifying its reputation as a tranquil retreat for the next generation of Fuqua students, faculty and guests. Our hotel features 198 contemporary guest rooms and suites, two on-site restaurants, and 25,600 square feet of event and meeting space, Known for impeccable service and attention to detail, the JB Duke has continued to be a recipient of the prestigious AAA Four Diamond award.
Light-filled spaces abound throughout the JB Duke Hotel, offering views of the Duke Forest, landscaped courtyards, terraces and plazas, and connecting guests with the outdoors.
