Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • With a playfully eclectic interior and a modern sensibility, this historic hotel is anything but stuffy. Located steps from Telegraph Avenue in the heart of Golden Bears territory, it's got the perfect combination of elegant vintage architecture, college nostalgia, and all the wonderful whimsy you've come to expect from a Graduate property.
  • Intimate celebrations will find a perfect fit in the vibrant event spaces. We especially love the Durant Room: a rich shade of blue enhances the walls' original moldings and cornices, illuminated by glowing chandeliers. On one side, dramatically curved bay windows are set with plush banquettes that invite cozy mingling, while another wall boasts a gorgeous wood built-in bar.
  • Your guests will love the delicious cuisine and the ultra-cool guest rooms. In-house food & beverage packages keep the planning process simple, and you can depend on their talented chefs to craft a menu that will make your mouth water. When the night winds down, you'll retreat to your welcoming, pet-friendly guest rooms, each beautifully designed to reflect the hotel's one-of-a-kind vibe.
