by Hilton Nashville
Maximalist Southern-collegiate boutique — Barbie pink meets honky-tonk twang, with a heavy dose of Dolly Parton worship and a Pop Art lobby that doubles as a social media set.

Why It Matters
Home to White Limozeen, one of Nashville's most sought-after rooftop bars and restaurants, plus Cross-Eyed Critters — Nashville's only animatronic karaoke bar. The property is also known for its meticulously themed decor: every inch references either Vanderbilt, Tennessee history, or country music legends, with an AR app to explain all the easter eggs.
Midtown Nashville's most Instagrammable hotel, planted a few steps from Vanderbilt University and about 1.5 miles from the chaos of Broadway. The Graduate brand does something clever here: it takes the idea of collegiate nostalgia, runs it through a Dolly Parton filter, and cranks the Southern charm up to eleven. Floral canopy beds, pink-striped wallpaper, portraits of country music queens above the headboards, Pop Art nods to Taco Bell and Checkers (the restaurants that once stood on this site), and an animatronic karaoke bar off the lobby. It's genuinely unlike any other hotel in town.
Where You'll Stay
9 room types available
9 to 5 Suite
The hotel's showstopper presidential suite, built as an homage to Dolly Parton and her 1980 film '9 to 5.' Shaggy pink carpeting, pink feathered lampshades, disco ball-tiled ceilings, and a California King waterbed in a pink satin frame as the centerpiece. It's completely over-the-top in the best possible way. The suite guests most want to photograph at the entire property.
California King Waterbed
Family Suite
Configured specifically for families, with layouts accommodating parents and kids. Still carries the Graduate Nashville visual identity.
Graduate Corner King
Corner-positioned king room with additional window exposure and natural light. Same Graduate Nashville decor package — canopy bed, country portraiture, the works.
King
Graduate Junior King Suite
A step up in space from the standard king, with a separate sitting area. Same Graduate Nashville aesthetic — floral canopy, Southern charm, country music portraiture — just more room to spread out.
King
Graduate King
The entry-level room, and honestly plenty for one or two people. Pink-striped wallpaper, a floral canopy bed, a portrait of a female country music legend above the headboard (Dolly, Patsy Cline, or Tammy Wynette depending on your room), a plush armchair and small sitting area, and a dedicated desk. Bathrooms go dark and moody as a contrast — black walls, metallic accents, black-and-white tile floors. Serta Premium Plush mattress, Malin + Goetz toiletries, Coava coffee maker, mini fridge, in-room safe.
King
Graduate King Suite
Full suite with dedicated living and sleeping areas. The Graduate's signature Southern-maximalist decor is dialed up further here, with more art and design details throughout.
King

Graduate Queen Queen
Two queen beds dressed in Graduate's signature Southern-maximalist style. Same floral canopy treatment, patterned carpet, and pink-striped walls. Good option for two friends sharing.
Two QueensGraduate Two Twin Beds
Twin-bed configuration in Graduate's signature Southern style. Practical for two guests who need separate beds.

How you'll actually spend your days.
Free bicycle rentals available at the Front Desk, included as part of the daily destination charge. Good for getting around Midtown and down to Broadway.
Nashville's first and only animatronic karaoke bar — a robotic backup band of animal characters plays alongside you as you sing. Separate entrance on West End Avenue off the main lobby. No reservations required. 21+.
Seasonal rooftop pool attached to White Limozeen with pink umbrellas and daybeds in retro floral print. Open summer months only. Priced from around $65/person for a lounge chair on weekdays and up to $85 for a daybed on weekends, with a 3-hour time limit, a welcome drink, and a $25 White Limozeen credit included. Hotel guests get priority access Mon–Thu 8–11am but must still book via Resy. This is not a complimentary hotel amenity.
The Graduate Hotels app includes an augmented reality experience that explains the design references and artwork throughout the property — particularly useful at Nashville given the layered nods to Vanderbilt, Tennessee history, and country music. Download before arriving.
On weekends, the lobby hosts pop-ups with local Nashville vendors. Timing varies.
