    We needed a place to stay for one night in Cary. Making a reservation at The Mayton was the best decision! Everyone was friendly and accommodating from the minute we checked in.

    I am very late writing this review but its better late than never. This was my first time in NC and I asked my siblings what are some great food spots here (because I review and rate a lot of restaurants in Los Angeles). My brother proposed eating here for brunch. So we went and I gotta say I had a blast. The service was great, loved the atmosphere, location, and the engagement. I am not a huge breakfast person but it was very delicious. I forgot the name of the dish but it was the crispy fried apple with cheese and egg on it. I was a little skeptical about the dish but everything taste great. Not too fulling and the flavor was definitely there. Oh and I also asked for a crab cake on the side and I felt like I was in heaven. Overall: Atmosphere: 9/10 (great place to meet up and have fun) Service: 10/10 (our server was engaging and informative of the menu) Quality of Food: 9/10 (can't give a perfect score because I also need to go for dinner hahaha but the quality is there an well prepped) I hope this helps anyone that want to have a good time with friends/family and eating amazing food.

    I got a deal for a night at the Mayton through Offline Raleigh. It was a great decision for my birthday weekend as my friend and I were able to eat dinner that night in Cary, sleep in, eat brunch and then check out (noon!) before we met some other people in downtown Cary. Paul at the front desk greeted us as soon as we walked in, which was nice. The lobby smells amazing! Check in was a breeze and parking is either on the road or across the street where the old library used to be. Each floor has a different color scheme (team yellow!). Our room seemed to be a mix of modern and traditional decor/appearance. The beds were comfortable, but my friend and I wished they'd had extra blankets available as the cover was not very thick. The only drawback was there are not enough power outlets and mirrors. The closet has mirror doors, but I was unable to do my hair in front of them because there wasn't an outlet close enough. If two ladies are getting ready at once, the bathroom is a bit limiting. Perhaps pack a power strip? Brunch in the Verandah restaurant was delicious. The waiter was very nice but couldn't keep my friend and I's coffee cups filled. A minor issue. He checked in on us often. I ordered the chicken and waffles and my friend got the omelette of the day. We both enjoyed our food. And because we're intelligent women, we did the smart thing and ordered the mimosa pitcher! All in all, we enjoyed our stay and I'm glad I made the Mayton part of my birthday weekend. This would be a great spot to stay for the night once festivals return after COVID, or if you're just looking to have a nice spot to retire to after spending time in downtown Cary.

    I loved my stay at the Mayton! My boyfriend surprised me when a night here for my birthday and I could not have been more impressed. We stayed at the deluxe king suite I think? It was honestly larger than a downtown Durham apartment I've had in the past! The large tub and cozy king bed made for a comfortable stay. I definitely didn't want to leave and would go again. The best part of our stay was our host Tristen at the bar. The bar was out of tequila due to a wedding the night before (another sign of an incredible event if you were looking at the Mayton for that!) but he made me a special drink himself and called it my birthday special. He was so sweet and kind and genuinely a great server. We had the pimento cheese (I think that is what it was called) at his suggestion and loved every bite. You definitely want to visit the Mayton! It earned every one of the 5/5 stars.

    Have stayed here twice. We are locals and we stayed the first time when our HVAC died in the summer. We enjoyed it so much we decided to stay again for our birthday weekend doing a "stacation" so we could walk to all our favorite restaurants and bars. Both times the rooms were very comfortable and uniquely decorated. I adore that they have a white noise system you can adjust to your liking. Also recommend eating at their restaurant, but it is best to have reservations for that. Nice bar, too.

    Far from medium rare on the second attempt. More like medium well.

    So far this is my first night and I'm far from impressed. There is no parking! You literally have to drive up and down side streets hoping for a spot. The outlet on the work desk in the room is nonfunctional. So good luck charging you phone or getting work done. I went downstairs for dinner and ordered the Strip loin medium rare and it came well done. This is just the third hour here. Wow. I was at the Marriot a few miles away last weekend and no issues. This was supposedly a step up. If your paying $50+ a plate it could at least be cooked as ordered. The replacement steak was almost just as over cooked.

    For our anniversary we usually go to Europe. With covid and all Hubby pulled it off and surprised me. Stayed here and got couples massage which i "highly recommend". The masseuses were both very professional. Very relaxing. Then we got back to our room - champagne and chocolate strawberries were waiting for us perfectly chilled! It was very romantic. It was a perfect night. Mayton inn staffs made it possible. my husband was very happy to see me in awe. Im an interior designer and i was gasping in awe with all the antiquities items displayed in each hallway. I think we got the king room suite. Again as soon as i came my eyes lit up. Very clean, high ceiling, and the interiors are tasteful and harmonious. I didn't want to leave. Slept beautifully with their comfortable bed. I wont review the food because the restaurant is closed. They have room service its just ok nothing special i think because of covid they have limited selections. Will def be back with the massages. Highly recommend this gem.

    The Verandah restaurant

    We decided to turn a Friday afternoon RDU airport pickup into a two-day adventure by staying in downtown Cary's Mayton Inn and exploring the cities quaint offerings. Although it has the the look and feel of a historic inn, it is in fact, only three years old and run with pride by its husband and wife owners. It is  perfectly located at the center of Cary, within easy walking distance to restaurants. There's a lot to like about it, beginning with the spacious and comfortable rooms. We went with the Standard King (for around $190 on Expedia) and found the room to be immaculate and well-appointed. The mattress was comfortable and supportive and the triple sheeting was extra nice. The roomy bathroom had a sparkling clean shower with adequate water pressure. Towels were plush and toiletries were spa quality. The only real shortcoming was that the AC struggled to keep the room cool and was a bit loud. Although we didn't partake, complimentary coffee delivered to your room is available anytime. Service provided by the entire staff (particularly Paul and Patrick) was friendly and attentive. There is a beautiful and airy on-site restaurant, called the Verandah, that serves breakfast (included for hotel guests), lunch and dinner. Our breakfast was delicious. Adjacent to it is a comfy bar and den. There's also an adequate workout room in the basement. One item that we particularly appreciated was their very generous 12 noon checkout time, which allowed us to sleep in, eat a leisurely breakfast and take a second stroll through the downtown park just five minutes away before heading to the airport (which btw is about 10 minutes away.) Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. If you are visiting the Raleigh area, why not live a little and stay here for just a few dollars more than  your average Embassy Suites or Hampton Inn? I don't think you'd regret it.

    Great hotel, bar, and restaurant. They have heated and covered outdoor patio that's great in the afternoon. Try the espresso martini.

    Academy Park Hospitality, LLC has purchased the Mayton Inn. Early Bird Night Owl, of the Durham Hotel in downtown Durham, N.C., will now manage the Mayton Inn. What will be the changes they will make to improve the hotel and Veranda Restaurant?

    I love the Mayton Inn. It has a flair of old world glamour, while being approachable. Improving the quality of the outdoor seating for music, dining and a spontaneous drink would be an excellent choice.

After noticing several religious…read moreitems in their pictures, I emailed to ask if they were open to working with queer couples and got the following in response: "This venue is located at our Christian home. We personally have gay friends but we believe their behavior is a sin. I am a sinner and I believe we should love the sinner and hate the sin. The current law allows gay couples to marry. I think gay couples should respect the beliefs of others just as they want to be respected. " Clearly, they don't want to come right out and say we are not welcome, but they made it clear. Nowhere in my initial email was I disrespectful to them, so I'm not sure whey they felt the need to point out that we needed to respect their beliefs. A simple, "We can not accommodate your request at this time," would have been fine. We were not asking them to officiate our wedding. We were asking them if they would do their jobs as business owners, take our money, host our event, and keep their personal opinions to themselves. How their religious beliefs impact their business I don't really understand. It is really too bad, because as I mentioned, this venue looks absolutely gorgeous. However after the rude and frankly condescending email back, I will be taking my business elsewhere. I suggest those who support marriage equality do not support this highly unprofessional business.
