Very close to Cal campus. Older hotel. Henry's tavern attached really cozy with good food, drinks and service. Been many times, but this was the best meals. The cafe which had been inside is now in Henry's. That was a great change with great food and more options. Yay!

I come here very often as a Cal student to study. The environment is very relaxing, yet conducive to a great study session. It’s also very accessible and welcoming. Seating, lighting, decorations, etc. are very cozy; it almost feels like a home office. Staff is super friendly, and sometimes they give out treats to add to the overall wonderful experience. It also doesn’t hurt that I can walk to the bar and grab a beer after I finish studying for the day (haha). The Graduate is an amazing Berkeley staple, and I’d recommend that anyone who is visiting stop by :)

The rooms are super noisy. You can hear everything in the nearby room around and above you. The person in the reception admitted that and that currently they don’t have a solution. Also water pressure in the shower was super low. In terms of service, very kind but always only one person in reception. Besides that the bed is relatively comfy and the location is super close to campus. But if you care about your sleep, look elsewhere.
