Graduate by Hilton Evanston

This is my husband's and my favorite hotel to visit! It has the perfect moody and cozy interior, with great vibes, delicious food and drinks! We love coming back here also for the perfect location to downtown Evanston which all the cute coffee shops and breakfast places.

The Graduate by Hilton Evanston was the hotel for our wedding in January and I could not have asked for a better arrangement. Our guests continued to comment on the charm, friendliness of the staff, and the great location in downtown Evanston. I would absolutely recommend this for a group booking and also would stay there if I wasn't a local! The queen suites in particular are absolutely fantastic. The team there is great!

I stayed here for Valentine's day with my partner and everything was so nice. The staff were really helpful. The windows and bathrooms in the room were so large and everything felt spacious. We stayed in a King Room. Would definately reccomend if you want a cody, tidy place to stay in walking distance of the Northwestern University Campus.

Nice hotel with great customer service. I want to point out two exceptional employees, Aleah (sp?) the housekeeper is very kind, professional and personable. She goes above and beyond her duties and makes us, the guests, feel special. She is quick and thorough at what she does and has a great personality. Thank you Aleah. Javi, the bartender, is very skilled at making hand-crafted cocktails and is very professional. I saw several interactions between him and others, and it's apparent that he knows what his customers want and need. He makes a very good Smoked Old Fashioned. Thank you for that! The rooms are nice, but, the layout/space use is odd, in particular the bathroom. There are no shelves/tables to place your toiletries/hygiene items. Recommend placing a vanity table or two in there, and/or a couple of shelves on the walls. The bathrooms are certainly large enough to accommodate. Thank you.

This is a fun, well designed hotel at a great location. The front porch has these wonderful rocking chairs. The bar is surprisingly open until 1am on weekends, which is nice. Rooms have cool, thoughtful furniture. Lots of Northwestern touches. The only negative is I don’t understand why the bartender is so consistently angry. Everyone else there was very pleasant. Will come back, for sure.

We stayed here for a weekend winter getaway and had the best experience. All of the staff were so friendly and accommodating. Our room (King with wet bar) was beautiful and spacious. We also loved the historic ambiance of the hotel. Amazing location within walking distances of restaurants and shops.

I gave the room 4 stars because the light where all connected to one switch. In the morning if you wanted coffees and your partner is sleeping all the lights have to be turned on. Not the most ideal situation. The hotel is beautiful. Staff is awesome.

We enjoy the Graduate Hotels and this one did not disappoint. Cozy feel. Rocking chairs on porch, cozy bar and restaurant area, very cool office area for check in. Smaller elevator. Nice clean public areas. Room was a king bed, new TV, great shower, warm bathroom floors, and quiet room. Public parking a bit more than a block away. Reasonable rates.
