Graduate by Hilton Lincoln offers a blend of retro charm and practical amenities in the heart of downtown Lincoln. Situated at 141 N 9th St, this hotel features a funky, vintage-style atmosphere with warm, air-conditioned rooms. Its facilities include an indoor pool, a fitness center, a restaurant, and a bar, catering to both leisure and business travelers. Guests can expect free Wi-Fi and pet-friendly options, though parking and breakfast are available for an additional fee.
The property’s location is well-suited for visitors interested in exploring Lincoln’s city center, with easy access to prominent landmarks like the Nebraska State Capitol, Sheldon Museum of Art, and the International Quilt Museum—all within walking distance. Proximity to entertainment venues and government buildings adds to its appeal for both tourists and those attending events or meetings downtown.
Single Barrel, the on-site restaurant and bar, has earned positive feedback for its quality and atmosphere, providing a convenient dining option without stepping outside the building. While some guests appreciate the hotel’s distinctive vintage vibe and attentive staff, reviews note that the building reflects its age in parts and parking can be less convenient, which may affect those arriving with larger vehicles.
Check-in begins at 16:00 with checkout by 11:00, aligning with typical guest expectations. Nearby airports include Lincoln Airport, just a 10-minute drive away, and Eppley Airfield, about one hour by car.
