Graduate Lincoln

Graduate Lincoln, a 16-story, 231-room Hilton-family hotel at 9th and P Streets, sits on the edge of the Haymarket a short walk from the University of Nebraska campus. Its event program covers 12 meeting rooms across more than 15,000 square feet, including three large ballrooms, two flexible spaces, and a boardroom; the largest ballroom accommodates up to 500 guests. The decor leans on Husker traditions and college nostalgia, which suits the location.

Full-service catering and complimentary wireless internet come with all meeting spaces, and the in-house restaurant, Single Barrel, serves American classics off the lobby. The university connection drives much of the calendar — campus-adjacent conferences, recruiting events, and graduation-weekend parties — but the ballrooms handle conventional weddings and corporate holiday parties as well. It is best for corporate meetings, university-affiliated events, and weddings that want Haymarket walkability with hotel rooms upstairs.
