The Ballroom at University Arms
About this space
Few halls in Cambridge can compete with the grandeur, elegance and history of the University Arms Ballroom - a wood-panelled room that belongs to our city's heritage. Natural light spills in through huge stained-glass windows decorated with college crests, with views looking out over the city’s iconic Parker’s Piece. Summer or winter, the Ballroom is the perfect space for large events, accommodating up to 180 seated guests or 200 standing.

About University Arms
Our style is undeniably British and quintessentially Cambridge. Classic Edwardian interiors are combined with bespoke, leather-padded writing desks, low ottomans, and tiered chandeliers in playful colours and rooms full of natural light. The result is ambitious, beautiful, and full of life.
Our hotel offers 189 luxury rooms and suites across four floors, with views over Parker’s Piece, historic Regent Street, and the hotel’s inner courtyard.
