My wife and I recently returned from three nights at the Holly Inn, part of the beautiful Pinehurst resort property. I enjoy the quirks of old, classic hotels, if they are kept in good condition and are still comfortable. The Holly Inn certainly fits that description, and you are reminded of their extensive history on just about every wall. We... More

The Holly is the in-town version of the Carolina. The hotel offers the same great service of the Carolina but is in town which is a nice treat. We were put on the bottom floor so our window was very tiny but we appreciated the dark room on a vacation. Putting on makeup and getting dressed was not as great... More

Service at Pinehurst Resort is Always Excellent, Needless to say The Holly Inn is Part of that Service. The Hotel reminds you of going back to yesterdays Hotels or a trip to Europe. Quaint with plenty of atomosphere. Being a guest at Pinehurst opens up a relaxing Vacation. Golf, Pools, Tennis,Horseback riding etc. The Holly has a nice restaurant and... More

Upon arrival, I was greeted by the friendly front desk staff. The feel of the Holly Inn is that you have traveled back to a simpler time where the accommodations are timelessly classic and quality service is important. The room was clean, nicely decorated, and the beds were comfortable. The addition of modern amenities like an extensive cable TV lineup... More

So glad we chose The Holly over the Carolina at Pinehurst. If you like more modern lodging options, this probably isn't the place for you. We enjoyed this quiet place with good dining and bar options. Everything at Pinehurst is expensive, so choose the place that looks to fit your style. The Holly is the original (old) hotel at the...

We held our Winter Meeting at the Holly Inn. The meeting staff gave us excellent service above and beyond all expectations. The facilities are vintage/historic and maintained well. The music room was the perfect place for our sessions. I would highly recommend Pinehurst and The Holly Inn for a small conference. The only issue I had personally was that the... More

First off, the hotel is beautiful, no doubt. You also pay for the up-keep of such an old place. You pay by ways of the Tavern - a BLT (hearty) was $11, a burger was $14 and breakfast was $31 for the buffet!! - - AND NONE OF THE STAFF WILL DIRECT YOU ELSEWHERE to a more $$ friendly fare.... More

I was first introduced last year and I was thrilled with the experience. I visited again for a conference this past week and I cannot be more pleased. The service is impeccable. You cannot find this level of service many places. I was pleased with the Holly, the shuttles, dining, and my overall stay. I could write pages about how... More

This was our 4th golf trip down to Pinehurst, NC. First time we stayed at the Holly Inn. We really loved this property. Much smaller property (but not rooms) and more intimate than the Carolina Inn, but still the exceptional service of Pinehurst resorts. Walk down the hall and you are greeted by name. We dined at the 1895 and... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Holly is one of the hotels of Pinehurst Resort, located in the center of the charming Village of Pinehurst. Built in 1895, The Holly was Pinehurst's first hotel. Every detail has been attended to inside and on the spacious grounds. Decorating the walls and floors are a series of natural botanical prints and images reminiscent of times gone by. You'll see the fine touches in every nook from the jewel-toned Tiffany lamps to the reading selection in the library to the comfort of a rocking chair in your guest room. It's no wonder the Holly is a Four-Diamond hotel. The 1895 Grille is the Four-Diamond restaurant inside the Holly. There's also the charming Tavern which offers indoor seating and outdoor dining seasonally. Free resort shuttles will transport you across the resort so there is easy access to golf, spa and all amenities. ... more   less
