DTA with Graduate is on!
Pros:

Overall hit the mark for our visit and purpose, convenient and comfortable

Cons:

The one thing that can use improvement is the grab n go coffee off the lobby. This is really important amenity for
all guests BUT the staff is sooo slow, is not really that pleasant or hospitable, and does not communicate well for service role. This was noticeable in previous stays as well.

Gem nestled in the heart of Annapolis

Worth the Stay
Pros:

Annapolis is a wonderful place to visit. The Graduate is a unique place. The naval memorabila was so interesting. Loved the rooms and the decorations. Bed was very comfortable as was the whole room including the bathroom. Very clean! and quiet! Had an after dinner drink at the bar. Bartenders were fun and very attentice. All are young guys and girls. Would absolutely stay here again.

Strong service, as always
Pros:

Great stay, as always — front desk team took care of me through a late check in, while Alex and the valet team ensured my car in place to load up under the overhang while it was raining. Terrific service all around!

Would happily stay again
Pros:

The Graduate Annapolis was a wonderful place to stay. The staff was consistently warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful, making us feel at home from check-in through departure. The bar and restaurant a standout, with a great atmosphere, excellent cocktails, and surprisingly good food that made it a destination in its own right.

The hotel’s design is one of its biggest strengths. It does a terrific job blending Naval Academy-inspired details with Chesapeake Bay influences, creating a space that feels both distinctive and connected to Annapolis rather than like a typical chain hotel.

The air conditioning deserves a mention as well—it kept the room impressively cold, which was especially appreciated during the summer heat. The only drawback was a slight musty or moldy odor in the room, likely related to the HVAC system. It wasn’t enough to detract significantly from an otherwise excellent stay, but it’s something the hotel should address.

Our room was on the 4th floor overlooking West Street and the windows offered excellent soundproofing.

Also I did not want a room with an interconnecting door and I was easily able to select the room of my choice by checking in via the app.

Overall, this is a character-filled hotel with exceptional service, a great bar and restaurant, thoughtful local design, and a fantastic location. With the musty odor resolved, it would be an easy five-star experience.
