Student Accommodation Leicester

The large student population means that the accommodation provision in Leicester is healthy. There are over 100 halls, both private and university-managed available to students. In the 36 uni halls students can expect a good variety of rooms and amenities available to them. Notably, University of Leicester offers most of its accommodation in period houses, rather than large halls, which is an option that many students thoroughly enjoy.

The vast number of Leicester’s halls is operated by the majority of UK’s leading providers. Students can expect a wide selection of rooms and standards to choose from: standard single, en-suite and studios are a few among many types offered by private halls in Leicester. In addition to that, there is a fantastic range of amenities, enhancing both private and social life in privately managed halls.

Other accommodation options are available too, of course. Renting a house with a group of 4 or more friends has never been more popular among students who tasted life in halls and want to move on to more traditional tenancies. Renting in larger groups brings many benefits such as lower per-tenant cost, flexibility in location and furnishing, or sometimes the much sought back garden, perfect for weekend leisure and moments of tranquillity in the busy lives of students. There is also a good supply of flats and apartments, which, as compared to houses, usually benefit from more central location and often have a more ‘cosy’ feel. They are especially suited to persons preferring to move in with fewer flatmates, or hope to live with a partner. This accommodation, be it a flat or a house, is typically managed by landlords or letting agents who specialise in student accommodation and there are many in Leicester that have an excellent reputation.
