Good location but only coffee available at breakfast time, no food, which Id never heard of. Bar was closed due to a private function, so no facilities in hotel available and only the chair in reception as seating.

Love The Graduate! Great location, wonderful staff… just a fun hotel to stay at! Wish they served full breakfast in attached Trophy Room… but they do have coffee, and it’s a nice place to relax with a drink in the evening.

generally not a bad hotel with a handy location. However, we booked on the premise that there was a bar for our family to meet up, but this was closed for a private function without any warning on check in, which was a bit awkward

Having to pay for a muffin and coffee seemed off-putting to many patrons. Why no continental breakfast or at least free coffee and tea?

All good but the in room coffee need some improvement. Instant coffee just isn’t a good touch. They need a brewed alternative. Other than that, the place was very nice
