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 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.
