Baraboo Vacations from $784

The rooms were spacious, clean.

only stayed 1 night (Monday). Hotel is very central and walkable to the center of town, restaurants, bars, etc. garage parking was easy and reasonable. We found Coopers bar to be the best for beers and watching the game. Town was very quiet but that’s most likely due to school not in session.

We were just there for a Saturday night and enjoyed our stay. After a busy day, we enjoyed a few cocktails at the bar and the server was engaging (while busy) Bobcats off to her. A++ stay, thank you!

The Graduate is fortunate that they have a fantastic location, because the hotel itself is run down and badly needs a renovation. The lobby and rooms badly need to be upgraded, and I imagine the owners could then get top dollar.

Everything was clean and well maintained, and the staff was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Unfortunately, we visited during an extreme heat wave, and the air conditioning struggled to keep up. Our first room would not cool below 75–76°F. Maintenance arrived promptly and made every effort to resolve the issue, but when it became clear it wasn’t improving, we requested a room change, which the hotel accommodated after having to go through a couple levels of customer service. The second room cooled to about 74°F but had a toilet that ran loudly every 20 minutes or so. By then, it was late enough that the sun was no longer beating through the windows, making the temperature more tolerable. While I normally keep my home’s thermostat set around 74°F, a hotel room with little natural airflow felt noticeably warmer and more humid. We had originally planned to explore the city and have dinner out, but after dealing with the room issues, we decided to order room service and spend the evening relaxing instead. Thankfully, the beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the room service was delicious, which helped end the day on a positive note.
