Great location - minutes from Yale’s Old Campus & around the corner from Pierson ResCo. Charming decor. Minimal space for drop off/check-in. Competing drop-off/street space with The Study (hotel next door-caution: unprofessional staff) - especially during busy times (Grad/Family weekend). No designated parking. Private (non-hotel) parking garage across the street.

Not up to Hilton standards

The hotel is nice but different from other Hilton hotels. When I book a room at a Hilton I expect a certain level and the hotel feels like a youth hostel. The stay at the hotel was disappointing.

The Graduate is hidden gem right in the center of New Haven. Its European decor offers a throwback to English elegance and flair. My room was gorgeous and the bed ultra comfortable. The staff was great and the Poindester coffe lounge is comfy, cute and a great place to hang out and work. I will stay here again when I return to New Haven

By far the best decor I have seen in a reasonably priced hotel. No cookie cutter hotel design here! Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
