Part of the Gay Bloomington Guide — bars, events & things to do.

Bloomington, Indiana
IU-themed boutique hotel on Kirkwood, steps from the square and the queer bar corridor
The Graduate sits right on Kirkwood Ave in the middle of everything, and the whole property is designed as a love letter to Indiana University — think IU-themed decor, vintage campus photography, and rooms that feel more like a well-designed dorm upgrade than a generic hotel chain. It's walkable to The Back Door, the courthouse square, and every restaurant worth eating at downtown. Part of the Hilton family now, so you get loyalty points and reliable service with a lot more personality than a Hampton Inn. The rooftop and lobby lounge are solid spots for a drink even if you're not staying here.
