I had a wonderful stay at Graduate Annapolis! The design is stunning and thoughtfully reflects Annapolis history and Navy tradition, giving the hotel so much personality and sense of place.
The room was comfortable, spotless, and well appointed, and the location is unbeatable. It is an easy walk to the U.S. Naval Academy, downtown shops, and restaurants. The staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive throughout the stay.
Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Annapolis. I would absolutely stay here again!

Good location being near the Naval academy but it definitely is not worth the price. Food and service at the restaurant was average but they did have a really good band there but stopped at 9 pm. The parking isn’t convenient at all and the rooms are average.

A previous Horrible and Dangerous experience at this hotel
Around midnight, someone attempted to break into my room but failed because the door was locked. Later, while I was asleep, I received a phone call from the room telephone. The caller asked, “Who are you?” I was extremely terrified and confused. It was later explained that the call came from the front desk and that they had made a mistake on their end. After verifying my information, I went back to sleep.
However, they called again around 3–4 a.m., asking for my name, phone number, and who issued my room key. For goodness’ sake, I checked in directly at the front desk, and your staff gave me the key card. This was by far the most horrible experience I’ve had in over 100 hotel stays.

The college prep theme is a cute gimmick but doesn't make up for some of the rather basic amenities. It seems that the focus here is to minimize labor costs, and the result is a corporate, cold experience. At the price point in this location, I expected more. The restaurant is terrible - understaffed, a little sloppy, and the chicken sandwich tasted like the oil it was fried in was not particularly fresh.
