I stay here every time I visit my son, a student at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The hotel is centrally located and walking distance to the campus which makes it perfect for families or even a single parents that visits their student. The hotel has everything I need ed - a little cafe/coffee bar, bikes for rent, a rooftop bar/restaurant and a nice pool. I appreciate the boutique feel of the hotel. It's not a cookie cutter Marriott or other mega hotel and the service is always excellent. I highly recommend.

The staff at the restaurant upstairs and the bar were so rude. We waited 2 hours to be served but the people who seemingly had "money" were brought order after order of food and they waited on them hand and foot. What they don't realize is we are big tippers, I'm a realtor and was here paying for me and my whole family to enjoy the 4th of July. Because i wore gym clothes and tank tops i was treated like crap. We'll be taking our vacations elsewhere going forward. The hotel was nice but we were there to spend money on incidentals and pay for the extra amenities, not be ignored.

Absolutely love this hotel. So unique, special and one-of-a-kind. The rooms were so comfortable, elegant but approachable. My family loved a night swim & nachos from the rooftop restaurant. Will definitely stay at another Graduate soon!

Everything about this place was perfect. Staff is super friendly. Cafe is great for quick breakfast before getting out for golf and hiking. Pool has a relaxed vibe. Water was perfect temp. Music was good. Pool bar outdoor seating area is so nice. Rooms are quiet. Everything is clean. Elevators move fast. Location is walking distance to local establishments and the free tram. All around great adult family friendly college graduation celebratory long weekend.

I stayed there one night to move my kid out of UofA dorms so the location was perfect. Parking around the hotel is scarce so you have to valet. Check-in was easy and staff friendly. The hotel’s vibe is warm, comfortable, and trendy, with a stunning rooftop bar/restaurant that overlooks the city and campus. The guest room was clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. It did not have the anonymous feel of most hotels. I took one star off because the shower was cold at 7am but overall, I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back.

This is my second time staying here and it won’t be my last! Easiest spot to stay if you have a kiddo at the UofA and you can’t beat these accommodations! The beds are sooooo comfortable, everything is super clean, it’s quiet, safe and the rooftop pool, restaurant and bar are amazing.

The property is spotless. Everyone on the staff is welcoming. Love how the rooms are decorated and amenities. Rooftop bar has the best views of the city and mountains. Easy to walk to fun dining options and campus. Best place to stay in Tucson when visiting kids at UofA!

The hotel was very accommodating to our trip. The manager was nice and our room was clean and comfortable. We did have a few concerns though. The pool was dirty. There was toilet paper and filth floating inside. There was an incident & clearly someone passed away during their stay because the police presence with ambulances etc. were very much front and center as we were checking out. They then wheeled the deceased out on a gurney in front of our children!!! Clearly this isn’t something that the hotel can control, but they should’ve discreetly removed the deceased so we didn’t have to have a conversation with our young children while on vacation!

We LOVE Graduate hotels and we are so glad they are part of the Hotels.com family. Each one is unique, well thought out, and beautiful. The staff at the ones we have stayed in, including Tucson, go above and beyond to meet your needs and are always polite and friendly.

Our family had a great stay while visiting family in the area. The rooms are well designed and we enjoyed going to the pool every evening. The sunsets were amazing. Staff was friendly and gave our kids snap bracelets every day that they loved!
