With a student experience unlike any other, it may come as no surprise that the Edge Hotel School is ranked 7th in the UK for overall student satisfaction for Tourism, Transport, and Travel in the National Student Survey 2022. This result follows the previous ranking of 3rd in the UK in the NSS2021, demonstrating a consistent level of excellence in delivering an exceptional student experience.

You will develop your industry knowledge and professional skills by working within Wivenhoe House, a 4* country house hotel, alongside your studies. You will gain experience in the different departments of the hotel including the kitchen, front office, and restaurant as well as an extended period of time in the events department. These shifts may involve some late finishes on occasion, as well as weekend work so that you get to see all aspects of the different events the hotel offers such as weddings, meetings, tribute acts, baby showers, conferences, and more.
