Full job description

Welcome to a New Chapter in Bishop Auckland Hospitality

Nestled in the heart of historic Bishop Auckland, our new 3-star-plus hotel offers more than just a place to stay – it provides a warm Northern welcome, genuine hospitality, and a memorable connection to the rich heritage of the region.

Inspired by the legacy of the Prince Bishops of Durham and the centuries of English history that have shaped this remarkable town, the hotel blends comfort, character, and exceptional service. From the moment you arrive, our friendly team is dedicated to ensuring every guest feels valued, relaxed, and truly at home.

At the heart of our food and drink offering is a celebration of local provenance.
