- Hotels and motels
listed by the Chapel Hill/Orange County Visitors Bureau. This page lists
a number of hotels in close proximity to the UNC campus, but which tend to run
at higher rates than those in Durham.

- A note from coordinator Grayson Holmes in re: accomodations in the area:
That brings me to the hotel situation, which unfortunately is not
optimum. The only hotel within walking distance of campus is the
Carolina Inn, which you could book potentially, though the only
vacancies appear to be for single rooms (i.e. 1 double bed) that go for
anywhere from $71 to $237 a night. After that, there are a bunch of
hotels about 2-3 miles from campus, located either on NC-54 or US
15-501, the two main roads into Chapel Hill. In order of distance from
campus (though they are all right together more or less), these are the
Best Western University Inn, Days Inn, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn,
Sheraton, and Red Roof Inn. These all vary in price, but run between
$60 and $90 a night. The best bets here seem to be the Days Inn and
Hampton Inn, though they all are good. For those who want a suites-style
hotel, the closest one is the Homewood Suites (just past the Red Roof
Inn, next to I-40). Rooms there run from $85 to 140. A cheaper
alternative might be to get a hotel somewhere along the I-40 corridor.
All sorts of hotels can be found there, often for even cheaper prices.
More detail on this eventually, but if you have questions about any
particular hotel or want further recommendations, feel free to email.
