There are more than hotels that share the Graduate branding, highlighting college towns across the country. Auburn has the only location in our state + the early reviews are glowing.

“Orange, blue, and tiger stripes might seem like an odd decor combination, but Auburn University’s signature look is fantastic here. War Eagle Supper Club has rooftop views of campus, which is steps away. The coffee shop, Bo Jackson’s Beans, pays tribute to another local legend.”
