Graduate Seattle

Graduate Seattle is a mid-range, college-themed hotel at 4507 Brooklyn Avenue NE in the University District of Seattle, Washington, a short walk from the University of Washington campus. The U District light rail station, on the Link line, is within walking distance and provides a direct connection to Downtown Seattle and Sea-Tac Airport, while University Way, known as The Ave, offers inexpensive restaurants, bookstores and cafes. The Burke Museum, Husky Stadium and the campus' cherry trees and Suzzallo Library are nearby. The hotel is part of the Graduate Hotels brand, which decorates properties with local university memorabilia and a nostalgic collegiate style, giving it a playful, youthful vibe in the United States Pacific Northwest. Room types include King and Queen rooms and suites, and published rates run from about $160 to $340 per night. Listed amenities include a rooftop bar, a restaurant and a fitness centre. The rooftop bar offers views toward the campus and the city in good weather, and the restaurant covers breakfast and dinner, while the neighborhood supplies many more affordable options. Service is friendly and informal, popular with visiting parents, prospective students, academics and sports fans, and front-desk staff can advise on campus events and transport. Rates rise around graduation, move-in weeks and Washington Huskies football home games, when the area becomes very busy. A car is unnecessary because of the light rail, though parking is available at an extra charge. Guests arriving during term time may find the area lively in the evenings, and some noise from nightlife is possible on weekends. Current rates, bar hours and parking costs should be confirmed directly with the property before booking. Visitors planning a first trip to Seattle will find the surrounding blocks easy to explore on foot, with galleries, bookshops and cafes close at hand, and the central position keeps most major attractions within a short walk, bus ride or train trip.
