"Nice Hotel Near UT Medical Center"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We made reservations at the Graduate because of location. It was near UT Medical Center where I had surgery. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The staff was extremely polite and professional. We liked the valet parking. We were helped with our luggage to our room. Enjoyed our meal at the on site restaurant. The college student staff were very nice and helpful. Thank you all for a very enjoyable stay. One more thing the bed was very comfortable.

"I love the Graduate Knoxville & the Restaurant!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
What a great stay. The staff are friendly, my room was great and the location is perfect. The best part was Saloon, the restaurant. I was skeptical being a foodie and going to a place called “Saloon” but the food was excellent. I ordered the salmon which was amazing, had a biscuit which was to die for (don't judge) and the service was also excellent. Abby and Bryce were just the nicest people ever. Highly recommend. I loved the Graduate.
