Super cute and fun decor! Tyler at front desk was very friendly and put up with some silly antics from my sister and I during our stay. A great place if you are seeing a show at Gammage. Very close to many great restaurants. Good drinks at the on-ste bar. Would stay again for sure!

My husband and I stayed in this hotel last night as we are passing through town. The staff was friendly. The room looks great and the bed was comfortable. The towels were very fluffy. My only concern is that the bathroom door doesn’t close all the way. Other than that, everything else is great.

My sister, my mom and I stayed here for her wedding dress shopping weekend and what started out as a bumpy checkin experience ended in a wonderful stay. The lobby and first floor was cute and fun! Decompressing with two of her bridesmaids after a day of shopping we were welcomed at the restaurant with warmth. The hotel room was clean and stocked with extra towels as well. But the best part of the stay was the management team checking on us after feedback was given from our check in. Esther was apologetic and so very kind. I will definitely recommend The Graduate Tempe to friends and if I'm staying in the area again, this will be my hotel of choice. Thank you!

This is not four stars by any stretch of the imagination. The rooms are tiny. The restaurant/bar has odd hours, and there is nothing within walking distance in 100+ degree weather.
