Front of House Team Member - Breakfast & Lunch in Cambridge

Parker's Tavern, Regent Street, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB2 1AD

ABOUT US

University Arms is a 192-bedroom design-led Hotel situated in the heart of Cambridge, United Kingdom.

Overlooking Parker’s Piece is the Hotel’s quintessentially British Restaurant and Bar Parker’s Tavern, Library Lounge, and beautiful 272 square metre wood panelled Ballroom.

Opened in 1834 as a Coaching Inn, University Arms is Cambridge’s oldest Hotel.

For 180 years, the Hotel was added to, updated, and modernised in line with the age; however, it was the reopening in 2018 after a four-year £80m full renovation that really positioned the Hotel.

It is now Cambridge's 'go to’ destination, alluring visitors with the promise of a sense of modern luxury.
