Why Scholar Hotels?
Find More Than a Job. Find Your Place.
Hospitality is a people business. At Scholar Hotels, that belief shapes everything we do. We're a privately owned hospitality company with a distinctive portfolio of hotels in vibrant university communities. From boutique and independent properties to partnerships with
some of the industry's leading hospitality brands, our hotels may look different—but they're united by a shared belief that exceptional experiences begin with exceptional people.
Our team members bring those experiences to life every day. They're the first welcome at the front desk, the care behind a beautifully prepared guest room, the creativity in the kitchen, the attention to detail behind a memorable event, and the relationships that turn first-time guests into familiar faces.
Our Culture
People First. Always.
How we treat our guests matters. How we treat each other matters just as much.
At Scholar Hotels, we're building a culture grounded in respect, empathy, communication, accountability, and exceptional service. We believe people do their best work when they feel seen, valued, supported, and trusted to make a difference.
That means showing up for one another. Speaking openly and respectfully. Taking responsibility for our work. Recognizing great contributions. And remembering that hospitality isn't simply about completing a transaction—it's about creating genuine human
connection.
Our hotels each have their own personality, but the way we work together connects us all.
Our Values
How We Show Up Matters.
Our values aren't simply words. They guide how we serve, how we lead, how we communicate, and how we grow together.
Exceptional Service
Every moment counts. We work together to make every interaction meaningful and ensure our guests and team members feel seen, valued, and appreciated.
Empathy & Kindness
Hospitality begins with caring. We lead with empathy, treat people with kindness and respect, and support one another so we can provide exceptional care to our guests.
Open & Respectful Communication
Strong teams are built on trust. We communicate openly, welcome feedback, listen to one another, and make sure our teams have the information they need to succeed.
Responsibility & Accountability
We take pride in our work. We show up, step up, hold ourselves to high standards, and support one another in delivering the experience our guests deserve.
Grow With Us
Build Skills. Discover Opportunities. Grow Your Career.
A job in hospitality can be the beginning of something much bigger.
At Scholar Hotels, we want team members to have opportunities to learn, take on new challenges, develop their strengths, and build careers they're proud of.
Your first position doesn't have to be your final destination. A front desk role can become a career in hotel operations. A restaurant position can lead to food and beverage leadership. A sales coordinator can grow into a director. Experience at one hotel can introduce
opportunities across a growing portfolio.
Whether you're entering the workforce, beginning your hospitality career, bringing years of industry experience, or looking for an entirely new direction, we want Scholar to be a place where you can continue moving forward.
When our people grow, Scholar grows with them.

Our Portfolio
One Team. Distinctive Hotels.
One of the things that makes Scholar different is the diversity of the places we operate.
Our portfolio includes boutique hotels, historic properties, university destinations, nationally recognized brands, conference hotels, restaurants, cafés, rooftop bars, and gathering places across vibrant college communities.

opportunities to learn from people and properties throughout the organization.
You may begin your Scholar story at one hotel, in one department, doing one thing.
Where you take it from there is up to you.
Taking Care of Our Team
Because the People Who Care for Others Deserve to Be Cared For.
Hospitality asks a lot of the people who make it happen. We believe that commitment should be recognized and supported. Scholar Hotels offers competitive pay, valuable benefits, opportunities for professional growth, and a workplace built around connection, respect, and teamwork.
The Scholar Difference
Make an Impact Every Day.
Hospitality is made up of moments.
A warm welcome after a long day of travel. A beautifully prepared room. A meal someone remembers. A wedding that unfolds exactly as imagined. A teammate stepping in when another needs help.
Those moments may seem small individually, but together they create something exceptional.
At Scholar Hotels, you have the opportunity to create them every day.
We value people who care. People who take pride in their work. People who communicate, contribute, take responsibility, and want to be part of a team.
Because exceptional hospitality isn't created by one person.
It's created together.
