Great location if you are visiting UOA, walking distance to campus and University Drive were shopping and eatery are located. The Graduate was great hotel to stay at, the beds were comfortable and the shower in the bathroom was great. Really enjoyed the rooftop pool, bar, and restaurant. The views were spectacular. I highly recommend if you want a memorable stay.

The hotel is really unique with a cowboy motif and rooms. Service was just excellent. Really attentive to guests. Valet team was also quick and safe. Swimming pool was awesome. It got crowded and the layout space was a little bit cramped. Another attribute is location location location . Right downtown and next to the U. The king sized was very comfortable as were the pillows. Bedding was very clean. It was dusty but that was OK. We wiped things down once and it was all good. My wife and I loved the Moonstone restaurant. Tucson is really a foodie town (Check out Snoozers for brunch) and they do a great job. The view is to die for! Killer sunsets every night. Overall it’s a really nice stay and we enjoyed ourselves very very much. We will return for sure

Love it. As an older woman I am fairly invisible at the bar, but that’s not usual. Ordered a drink and 5 after me served first. But bartender was a nice girl and the 5 were nice young men

Very Noisy outside late Saturday night. Awakened by a loud noise at 4am that sounded like someone operating a power drill across the hall from a room that said staff only. Construction or maintenance at 4 am??? Got a parking ticket even though the clerk said parking on side streets was free on weekends. $60.

We were so glad to finally be able to stay at the Graduate. The location near the airport was really convenient. There was nothing to not like and hats off to the decorator - nicely done rooms, hallways and entrance. It won't be hard to book again!
