My wife and I were in Cincinnati for a couples trip and the Graduate was conveniently located. I liked what I saw on the app and the experience was even better than expected. I am very pleased we chose the Graduate

Hotel is adorable and very clean. Beds were some of the most comfortable I've ever had in a hotel. Staff was incredibly friendly - especially the bartender Cathy.

A whimsical, modern and comfortable place to stay near UC and the zoo. Can walk to campus and the zoo and there is a cafe for morning food and coffee and a bar for evening food and drink. Staff can be a bit hit or miss but generally highly recommend this Graduate location.

We were happy with everything except having to pay to park in their garage. I feel like that should be included.

Great hotel! Our only issue was the tv went out and they wanted to move us to another room. Too much of an I inconvenience to move.

Location is nice and close to the zoo- we were easily able to walk there. Staff were super nice, especially Michelle at the bar. They only give you one coffee packet in your room which I found odd and you have to buy coffee in the AM (other Hilton’s I stayed at had a coffee station) but other than that nitpick, it’s a great place.
