Life at Kabannas
Situated just steps from London St Pancras, our new 240-key Kabannas is designed for people who want more than just a room. We create spaces where people connect, stories unfold and community thrives. Hospitality here is human: warm, welcoming, playful and proudly real.
Our Food & Beverage space is the heart of Kabannas London - by day, we pour specialty coffee; by night, natural wines, paired with a small, carefully curated food menu. Think relaxed, social moments in the city, brought to life with weekly programming: live music, talks and intimate events where travellers, locals and teammates come together, connect and make something special.
We create places where you can be yourself, enjoy coming to work and feel part of something bigger than just a job.
As our journey begins, we're looking for a Hotel, Specialty Coffee & Natural Wine Duty Manager to start on 18th August- someone who loves leading a shift, setting the pace and making sure every guest feels the Kabannas energy.
