Beautifully designed, cabin cozy property on the campus of University of Minnesota. Good restaurant with elevated comfort food. Friendly staff too. It was very quiet because we were there during Christmas break…. The campus was almost eerily quiet.

Great place to stay for a Vikings Game
My son and I were staying at The Graduate for the Vikings White-out Game. Super easy to hop on the lightrail and head to the game. Vikings won so all good. Hotel was clean, friendly and such a great Minnesota Vibe. Love it!

GO GOPHERS! GO STUDY!
The Graduate Hotel is GREAT! Excellent location, great bar/restaraunt, comfy rooms and NICE staff and people! It’s been almost 30 years since I finished college and being here brings me right back. Bring books to read or work to do in the lobby just to feel smart and never stop learning - it’s great for that! I will stay again for sure.

On U of Minnesota Campus — Awesome Place
This is a thematic hotel that makes visitors feel as if they are staying in the coolest and most elegant dormitory in the world. Full of Minneapolis-Saint Paul nostalgia in common areas and rooms. If we ever come back this way we will definitely stay here again.

I was disappointed this time. Have stayed here a couple time. Things were broken in the hotel room. It needed some repair, nothing big. The room was hot. The parking gate for the lot would not work. I had to call the front desk every time to get in and out even after I had to go back in and exchange to parking pass. Not sure I would stay here again.
