So close to the Ralph Brown Draughon Library that you can practically read books on the shelves, this hotel is the ultimate introduction to Auburn. Before you head up to your room, rub the nose of the bronze War Eagle in the lobby for good luck – especially on game day. Jazz things up with a drink at Piccolo, though if you’re trying to sport some Tiger stripes, do what the coeds do and go to SkyBar.
