For tours, move-in and graduation

Stay a short walk from where the tour starts

Type the college. We show the places to stay around it in walking minutes to the admissions welcome center, and to the commencement venue where we know it.

What you get here that a booking site skips

The right finish line

"Near campus" can mean a mile from the welcome center. We measure to the building where visits actually begin.

Graduation in mind

Where a school names its ceremony venue, each hotel shows a second walk time to it.

The morning sorted

Coffee, a pharmacy, groceries and the nearest train stop, measured from each hotel's door.

Nobody pays to be listed

Every list runs closest first, and distance is the only thing that sets the order. There are no sign-ups, no pop-ups and no adverts trailing you around the web.
