ABOUT US.

University Arms is a 192-bedroom design-led hotel located in the centre of Cambridge, United Kingdom. The Hotel’s typically British Restaurant and Bar, Parker’s Tavern, Library Lounge and stunning wood-panelled Ballroom all look out onto Parker’s Piece.

It is now Cambridge’s ‘go-to’ location, attracting guests with the promise of contemporary grandeur.
