Graduate by Hilton Auburn, AL

My trip to the Graduate was nothing short of amazing. The War Eagle Supper Club was perfect and the Graduate’s Auburn theme was so cool to see. The staff were amazing and treated me so nicely. Even the younger valet, Brady, treated me with upmost respect while there. He held a conversation extremely well, and I hope to see more people like him working there.

Returning to Auburn after quite some time and staying at the Graduate was a lovely experience. As expected the location and decor is top notch and true to Auburn’s traditions and culture. But service and kindness is where this hotel truly excels above others. We especially would like to recognize the valet team as well as the stuff of the Supper Club for the great conversations and welcoming attitudes. For those considering staying in Auburn I believe the Graduate is the only option; you won’t be disappointed! We are already looking forward to our next trip. Thanks from your friends from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

I recently stayed at the graduate hotel here in auburn and I couldn’t have enjoyed my stay more. The rooms were comfortable and well set up and all of the amenities were A+. The war eagle supper club was our favorite part of our stay. The view of auburn was awesome and the food was delicious. Our valet guy Brady was super helpful and kind throughout. He helped us with our bags and made our experience super enjoyable and easy! We will definitely be back!

Great location within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and the campus. We were only there for 1 night, so we didn't interact with the staff or see much of the hotel, but the desk staff greeted us as we entered. The hotel has a upscale feel and the decor is definitely in an Auburn University motif. Despite the hotel being next door to very active nightlife, our room was very quiet (and clean). I didn't see any parking at the location. They do have valet parking and it looked reasonably priced, but when we arrived the valet area was backed up. We instead parked overnight in the Wright St Parking Deck adjacent to the hotel and had no issues. It did take until 5:30-6:00 pm before the digital key was ready, but it may have just been a busy time for the hotel. We walked around town and ate dinner, so that wasn't a big deal. We will definitely try to stay here again the next time we're in Auburn.

I had a wonderful stay at the Graduate Hotel and especially enjoyed the unique experience at the Supper Club, which made the trip feel extra special. Everything about the atmosphere and service exceeded my expectations, and it created a memorable visit. I also want to highlight Brady Gage from valet, who went above and beyond to be kind and helpful throughout my stay. His professionalism and friendliness truly stood out and added to the overall positive experience.

The Graduate is a great place to stay in Auburn. The hospitality of all the workers is phenomenal. The valet service in particular was amazing. They made a great impression and made my family feel welcome. Brady Gage, who was apart of the valet staff, was incredibly kind and very helpful throughout the whole check in process.

The Graduate Hotel in Auburn is the perfect blend of quaint and grand. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with a true college town theme and feel—the hotel is a full tribute to the university, celebrating it in every way possible. Every detail, from the lobby to the rooms, bathrooms, décor, and even the lamps, reflects that spirited connection to the college. Valet parking is the only option, but the friendly, accommodating staff makes arrival and departure effortless. The on-site restaurant offers great food, reasonable prices, and excellent service, making it a convenient and delicious choice without leaving the property. The location is wonderfully walkable, so you can explore the area with ease. Whether you’re visiting for game day, a campus tour, or just to soak in the Auburn atmosphere, the Graduate makes you feel right at home while celebrating the charm of the town.

05/2025- I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a thoughtful local touch that really made the experience unique. The room was decorated in a fun blue and orange football theme, which was both stylish and appropriate for the location. It was spacious, spotless, and everything was in excellent condition. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the abundance of towels provided. One of the highlights was the rooftop bar—perfect for getting some work done in the evening while enjoying a drink and the view. I also tried the cafe breakfast, which was quite good. The hotel’s location is ideal, right across from the engineering campus. I noticed they have bikes available too, which would be a fun way to explore the area. If I had to note one small drawback, it would be the in-room coffee situation. Instead of a coffee machine, there was just a kettle, and all the coffee provided was decaf. I’m not sure if that was intentional to encourage guests to visit the cafe or just an oversight, but normally you’d expect a mix of regular and decaf options. Still, it’s a minor detail and didn’t take away from an otherwise excellent stay. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel if you’re planning a visit to Auburn.

Reviews can either be the dregs of the barrel or the top of the Mountain. Welcome to the top of the mountain GRADUATE HILTON AUBURN, AL! While the facilities are second to none, it is the staff that truly sets The Graduate apart from any other hotel in the area, and many I have availed myself of nationwide. A shoutout to Whitten Stuckey (Valet), Luis Alcantara (Supervisor Front Desk), McKenzie Polewski (Front Desk), Mikiela Pugh (Front Desk), Jazelle Lwasa (Front Desk), Ben Brewton (Just roaming around but being great at it), David Weiss (Food and Beverage), and Mary Jack Gordon (Barista Extraordinaire!). Each of these individuals went above and beyond in their efforts to ensure that I had a memorable stay. Well Done Graduate By Hilton Auburn. Well Done! L. D. Walker, III

This place is super cute! From the lobby to the rooftop bar, everything about this place was great! I would definitely recommend coming here if you are in Auburn. I got Aubie's Spiked Lemonade to drink, and it was delicious! One of the best cocktails I've had!

What a great place to stay if you want a taste of Auburn/Southern Charm! We were greeted at valet, the front desk and valet again the next day. Everyone was so kind and polite. Our first room had an issue with the door lock so we were upgraded to a slightly larger room at no extra charge! It's a perfect place to stay if you are going on a college tour. Colorful, bright, clean and friendly!

Beautiful property with so many Auburn touches. Well staffed at checkin and of course lots of Southern Charm. This was opening weekend, but other than rooftop restaurant not yet open, they were prepared. Only two floors open for this weekend. Valet only at $25/day. We look forward to coming back again soon.

Really wanted to enjoy our stay here but it was a bust :/ we got 1 night away from kids (one has medical needs so we don't get this chance ever and we never get sleep!) and found this hotel a few mins down the road and was so excited bc it was our anniversary. Well we got NO SLEEP! The hotel should really warn people about the music til 230am coming from SKY BAR. We even turned on white noise on our phone and nope. Just kinda rude they didn't even warn us. I would have bought headphones or something! Also room was HOTTT. Oh and if you want to enjoy the restaurant upstairs don't believe them when they say they will text you when ur table is ready. Never got a text and then went up there and was told it was a wait to get outside. Just a huge mess and so disappointing for such a cute hotel.

The details of this hotel were amazing. From the Chandeliers to wall paper in the bathrooms. This Hotel IS Auburn! The location is perfect. We were here for a college tour. Everything is walking distance. The hotel opened only a few months ago. One thing that would be helpful would be a map of the Auburn campus. For anyone doing the tour it's about a 5-10 min walk to the Quad. No one could answer that question for me which I found odd. I would definitely come back to this hotel. We enjoyed our stay.

Great atmosphere, especially if you love Auburn! Front desk employees were outstanding, the valets, which is the only way to park, were great! Wish they would have explained the extended vehicle $10 extra charge. The restaurant upstairs was okay, they were still working the bugs out. Overall would stay there again

Most staff members were cheerful and courteous even if the hotel couldn't offer services needed .

The rooms are large but there is not even a stale cookie if you are checking in late, say after 10 PM on a Sunday night. The room has a few problems in terms of missing essential items but they are large and clean. There are fast food places nearby but they don't work for those with food allergies . The staff is replacing the missing items. The shower pan is plastic, it lacks a handheld device but the water is hot. The hotel provides extra fluffy towels but the shampoo , conditioner and body wash containers have remarkably stiff pumps . The parking is valet with app based payment system . The TV is pretty strange , i don't know if it's malfunctioning or I just dont understand how the remote works. This place is not top drawer but they are trying .

The only thing we loved was all the Auburn theme and memorabilia. The rooftop has great views and drinks but not great food. If you don't have a table or reservation, it's difficult to order drinks. The WiFi didn't work for us and our tv had quality issues which was weird since it's brand new. We were told we would have an extended room but it was a normal room. Nothing wrong with the room, it was just different from what was communicated. You can only valet so there's an added expense there. Valet team is nice and quick though. Cool vibes and great roof top view but other than that, probably not worth the price.

Train wreck. Dont open until you are ready. You would think Hilton would have a launch team for the first few weeks. So valet closes at midnight. No onsite parking. So if you arrive after midnight you are out of luck. If you do arrive in time be prepared to wait 20 mins plus just to valet park. TV's in rooms not working properly. The supper club restaurant has one working tv. Not great for a college town bar on a game weekend. Kept hearing the excuse of we just opened a few days ago. Poor management. If you pay$900 a night you should expect $900 a night service

Hotel is SUPER cool, but what's NOT cool is when paying guests (paying a LOT by the way) on a game day weekend aren't allowed to go to the rooftop bar because there's a private event going on. Beyond ridiculous. Of course, the people running the event kept saying "we aren't affiliated with the hotel". Well guess who everybody's unhappy with - the hotel.
