Overview
We are looking for a Barback to join the Coppin's Restaurant inside the beautiful Hotel Covington and the newly opened Knowledge Bar & Social Room inside North by Hotel Covington.
Hotel Covington embodies the transformation of a celebrated, century-old downtown building into a modern luxury hotel. As the first of its genre in the market, Hotel Covington appeals to business and leisure travelers accustomed to upscale hotels in primary markets seeking an authentic and locally influenced experience. The hotel draws inspiration from the local culture and cultivates a following through a sense of civic pride and exciting food & beverage along with our addition, North by Hotel Covington.
Hotel Covington pulls inspiration from its northern and southern sister cities, but a cohesive mix of styles ultimately lends individuality. A story told through regional and local sourcing, and will become the pulse of Covington and beyond: unique yet comfortable, casual yet refined, and timeless yet evolving.
