  Adorable hotel! It has a really cute old and homey vibe, and the staff were all very pleasant. The rooms were small but definitely manageable. The cafe downstairs was also great and we got coffee and breakfast - I’d recommend the snickerdoodle latte.

  I spent a week at this hotel, which recreates a classic British style in the setting of an Ivy League environment in New England. The rooms don’t have views, but they compensate with a high level of comfort, and I must highlight the excellent lighting. The bathroom cleanliness and towels are outstanding, and the amenities make the stay genuinely pleasant. The hotel also has the Poindexter café, where they serve excellent specialty coffee that is truly worth trying. I only had the English muffins, but all the pastries looked delicious. The fact that the café is open to the public creates a warm, lively atmosphere throughout the hotel. That said, some of the lounge-style rooms designed for reading or working were occupied by students, who ideally shouldn’t take up space intended for guests. Overall, the hotel is still slightly below the standard typical of Hilton properties, as they are currently integrating it into the chain after its acquisition. They don’t yet offer services like guest laundry or a porter to help with the initial flight of eight stairs at the entrance, which can make access difficult. As for the staff, they were truly wonderful — and I also had the chance to meet the hotel’s director personally and share these impressions with her, which I greatly appreciated. The hotel is located right in the heart of New Haven — a magnificent place to stay. ❤️

  The location was freat because it was very close to Yale university, literally it is at the campus. Most of restaurants are nearby and walkable distance. All staff was professional and nice. The hotel's interior and room were classic and cozy.

  First off one of the front desk staff was perfectly kind and very gracious. The second, was terribly rude, cut me off and was snippy when I called for help, if you want a relaxing stay, DO NOT book this hotel. First, the rooms are small and musty. Secondly, you can hear every noise possible. The rooms are also conjoined with only a small lock between the two and the door locks are fickle —not great for safety off the bat. If you say on the second floor you are right off the street and people can see directly into your room (not great for safety again especially as a single female traveler). My room had broken blinds that wouldn’t go down so there was not much to keep people from seeing me in my room. Additionally there is a bar and nightclub right underneath which I was not told at check in. From 6:00 pm to well past midnight music was blaring through the room and shaking it. People from the bar were screaming right outside the window all night. Truly just a horrible situation to be put in with how expense of a place it is. No sleep after a long day of travel and big work event the next day. Do not recommend and will not stay in Graduate Hotels again.
