"Graduate is a group of 30+ hotels across the U.S. and U.K. that are inspired by university traditions and based in favorable locations in college towns. And thanks to that corporate tie-in, it's now part of Hilton Honors, something you're probably more likely to use as an adult. The brand calls it "newstalgia," and while I won't use that term ever again, it gives you an idea of what to expect during your stay."
"Located on E. Huron Street, the Graduate is literally steps away from local mainstays like the Michigan Theater, Gandy Dancer restaurant and Zingerman's Deli. It's 30 minutes walking to Michigan Stadium (football) and Crisler Center (basketball), and there are shuttle buses to both."
Graduate by Hilton, launched in 2014 and acquired by Hilton in 2024, operates over 30 hotels across the U.S. and U.K. designed around university traditions and located in college towns. The brand targets adult travelers seeking nostalgic collegiate experiences while offering modern amenities and Hilton Honors loyalty program integration. The Ann Arbor location exemplifies this concept, positioned steps from local landmarks like the Michigan Theater and Zingerman's Deli, with convenient access to Michigan Stadium and Crisler Center via walking or shuttle buses. The hotel concept appeals to alumni and college sports enthusiasts who want to reconnect with campus culture and traditions.
