About

GETTING HITCHED?

From bridal showers, to rehearsal dinners and wedding receptions, we have the ideal space to host your special day and all the festivities leading up to it. Our classically elegant ballrooms can be rented partially for intimate receptions or in full for over-the-top bashes. For brides who wish to incorporate an outdoor element in Ann Arbor, we offer a private third floor terrace to continue the celebrations outside. Topped off by our award winning catering, our creative culinary team will work with you to create a custom menu that perfectly reflects the soon-to-be-wed couple.

OLD-SCHOOL SUPPER CLUB & KINDRED SPIRITS

Welcome to Graduate Ann Arbor – where your intellectual curiosity meets your favorite place to stay.

Graduate Ann Arbor is ideally located across the street from University of Michigan’s campus and a couple blocks from Nickels Arcade. We’re right at the corner of Huron and State streets amid the bustle of the town’s best restaurants, shops and game day buzz, making Graduate the smartest place to stay in town!

A cozy club feel envelops the hotel lobby where nods to the arts, counterculture and political scene of this famously progressive community speak to its storied history. Hand-painted mosaic patterns that sweep across wide-planked wood floors, handsome millwork, leather clad columns and grand center staircase patchworked in Persian rugs add a warm, layered look throughout. Traditional library furnishings are recovered for a twist on the classics, while commissioned murals and graffitied manifestos invite discussion and good humor.

Gather some Wolverines for a post-game brew, grab a light bite at our café counter or convene at our 40-foot communal wood table; it’s the perfect hub for conversation and camaraderie.

August Wedding and Reception

I cant say enough how amazing The Graduate Ann Arbor. How wedding went perfectly. Everyone still talks how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food was. They went above as a wedding venue. And the hotel! It was amazing to go up the elevator to our room to rest after a emotional day. If you're looking for a venue with outdoor ceremony, indoor reception, and hotel for out of town guests, I highly recommend the Graduate.

Patti is the best asset to any bride. She was so kind and understanding and really on top of her stuff. The graduate was beautiful, and even though it rained and I didn't get many outside pictures. I got so many beautiful pictures INSIDE the hotel. Beautiful venue, good food, amazing coordinator.

The Graduate was a perfect location for our hotel block. Our guests had a great stay and they were very easy to work with when coordinating welcome bag drop offs (forewarning there is a $5 fee per bag) and when serving as a charter bus pick-up location.
