Graduate Princeton (New Jersey)
We’ll take adaptive reuse over new build any day, so this new opening (https://graduatehotels.com/princeton/coming-soon) for Graduate Hotels – which sets up in university towns across the US and UK – is one to watch. A former students’ dormitory built in 1918 will reopen in May as the 34th for the brand, with a lounge styled as an Ivy League library (only with a 30-foot communal table there’s no need to be silent in this one), and characterful rooms gussied up with deep blue walls, pinkish drapes and elaborately carved headboards.
