Doing college tours over fall break. UNC Chapel Hill was one of the stops. The hotel was great- provided a university vibe. Was conveniently located to walk the campus and get food along Franklin street. The room was spacious and full of unc memorabilia. Overall a great seat and experience. Front desk help was excellent- friendly helpful and responsive.

I think for sanitation purpose the coffee stirrers should be sealed or wrapped like the ones they give you at McDonalds. The staff are nice and helpful. Property is clean and maintained well.

Fun theme/design details. And extremely conveniently located. Very nice and helpful staff! We were grateful for the parking garage as it was raining off and on, and also to be able to enjoy a glass of wine in the bar while waiting (for the rain to stop) to walk to dinner.

The Graduate Hotel in Chapel Hill is an excellent location to visit the campus of UNC. There are tons of restaurants, shope, and so close to campus. You feel you are right in the middle of things. The room was clean and comfortable. The coffee and breakfast foods were perfect and reasonably priced.
