Rizzo Conference Center

I will echo many of the other reviews, but the Rizzo Center is a gem. I attended a work retreat here that was originally scheduled in February, but was pushed to May due to weather, and the staff was so flexible and accommodating to our group to get the event back on the books.
The grounds are beautiful to wander through, and the conference rooms themselves are well-​appointed. I echo the sentiments of the cleanliness. I mean, the bathrooms are stocked with mini mouthwash bottles as well as not one, but two types of paper towels to dry your hands on. Super classy, Rizzo.
Let’s talk about the food. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all served in the DuBose House. All the meals were delicious, ample portions, and great variety. The chef was incredibly sensitive and accommodating to those of my coworkers with food allergies.
My only very minor complaint was that my room was slightly dated, and the carpet needed to be replaced. Minor cosmetics though, folks. These non-​issues are easily made up by the free-​for-​all guest pantry stocked with drinks and snacks. Yes, there is free Ben and Jerry’s for all. I was also particularly impressed with the gym and the variety of equipment available.

I attended a training here and the facilities are extremely nice. The meeting rooms were comfortable with adequate lighting and space. The bathrooms were spotless (I’m kind of a bathroom snob ;-)
The staff were welcoming and greeted me when I walked in the door. It’s located off of unc’s campus but very easy to find and plenty of parking.

This is a lovely place to stay in Chapel Hill. The service is excellent. During graduation weekend, hotel staff were willing to pick my parents up from campus at minutes’ notice. They loved the grounds and the hotel’s proximity to campus.

Absolutely wonderful facility. This is a hotel /​learning center. UNC does a lot of their executive development and MBA classes at this location. The service and amenities are top notch. My favorite is they keep stocked freezers on each floor with ice cream bars and sandwich that are complimentary! Love this place!!!

Top notch facility. Our family attended a wedding rehearsal dinner here for over a hundred people. Staff was friendly, attentive and service oriented. From starters to cocktails and finally dinner the food was well prepared and served hot to such a large group.

If you are here on business or for school, this is a great place to stay.

Beautiful setting! We have been to two events here and have been more than pleased. The staff is always helpful and every building is immaculate. The ladies will appreciate the restrooms that are quaintly decorated and have small amenities such as hand lotion, and mouth wash. This is a beautiful place to visit any time of year.

I was pretty mad when I «got walked» from the Marriott Courtyard but wow, this place is fantastic. It’s not exactly what you’d expect if you were planning on a Courtyard, as their focus is solely on the business conference environment but as such, they are very focused on service and making sure you’re happy and well taken care of.
They have a small billiards & bar area where you can order up some wings or a burger or other lite fare and the food was top quality.
Additionally, they have pantry areas for the guests where you can get unlimited supply of beverages, popcorn and ice cream.
Really happy I got moved over here (and on Courtyard’s dime)

Beautiful facility with ample meeting rooms that are equipped with modern technology and comfortable leather chairs. The hotel rooms are equally comfortable, spacious, and equipped for business travelers (minus the room thermostats that have minds of their own).
The only advice I have for finding the place is to look for a large, brick sign/​curved stack to the left of a driveway that stems right from Meadowment Rd. The brick sign will read «Paul J Rizzo Conference Center» in huge gold letters. If you look for the DuBose Ln sign, you will surely miss the drive as the sign is hard to find and read in the dark. If you enter a 25 MPH 2-​lane drive area, you have gone too far. The parking lot is fairly removed from the hotel, and it will be on your right as you enter DuBose Ln. To boot, the lighting is pretty sketchy around the lot and to the hotel as well. It only takes 3 minutes to get to the hotel by foot, but they also offer a golf cart shuttle if you ask/​call.
I love this place.
