Please select an Urban Students property

As a student, finding the perfect place to live while you study is crucial. Your accommodation should not only be comfortable and affordable but also provide the essential amenities that support your academic and social life. At Urban Student, we understand the unique needs of students, which is why we go above and beyond to provide a living experience that sets us apart from other student accommodation providers. Here are 10 things every student needs in their student accommodation, and how we deliver on all of them…just sayin’:

 

  1. A Comfortable Bed

After long hours of studying and attending classes, a good night’s sleep is essential for every student. Urban Student offers premium beds designed for comfort, ensuring you have a restful sleep every night. Our spacious rooms come equipped with cosy bedding and storage space, allowing you to unwind in comfort. After all, you do spend 50% of your life in bed, so it’s good to make it comfy!

 

 

  1. High-Speed Wi-Fi

Reliable, fast internet is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity in today’s world. Whether you’re attending virtual lectures, submitting assignments, or simply catching up on your favourite shows, a high-speed internet connection is a must. Urban Student provides super-fast, secure Wi-Fi throughout our accommodation to ensure you stay connected with ease and at no extra cost as all our bills are included.

 

 

  1. Study-Friendly Environment

A quiet, well-lit study space is key to a productive student life. At Urban Student, we offer individual desk setups in each room, making it easy for you to focus on your studies.

 

 

  1. Fully Equipped Kitchens

Cooking your own meals is not only cost-effective, but it also gives you the chance to eat healthier, we know how easy it is to rely a bit too much on UberEats! Urban Student’s fully equipped kitchens allow you to prepare your favourite meals with ease, featuring ample counter space, and storage for all your needs. We also offer apartments that provide you with all your kitchen appliances. So all you have to do is turn up, and start cooking (what a dream!)

 

  1. Social Spaces

Living away from home doesn’t mean you have to miss out on socialising. At Urban Student, we know the importance of community and ensure our shared apartments have lounges for social gatherings. It’s a great place to meet new people.

 

 

  1. Laundry Facilities

No one enjoys laundry day, but it’s a necessary task for any student. Urban Student offers on-site laundry facilities with easy-to-use machines, so you won’t have to worry about finding a laundrette or lugging your clothes across town. Some of our apartments now provide your very own washing machine. Meaning no queues to clean your clothes!

 

 

  1. 24/7 Security

Your safety and peace of mind are our top priorities, and this should be the case for all student accommodation providers. Urban Student’s accommodation comes with 24/7 security, including secure access points, CCTV coverage, and friendly nearby staff.

 

 

  1. Room Customisation

All our apartments are meticulously designed and fully furnished, meaning you’ll be able to step into a stylish city apartment from day one. You can also choose  apartments also come fully equipped, so you don’t have to worry about doing the big IKEA shop!

 

 

  1. Easy-to-Use Rent Payment System

Paying rent should be hassle-free. At Urban Student, we’ve streamlined the payment process with an easy-to-use online system that lets you pay your rent quickly and securely, no matter where you are.

 

 

  1. Convenient Location

Location is everything when it comes to student accommodation. Urban Student offers properties in prime locations, close to major universities, transport links, and local amenities such as supermarkets, cafes, and gyms. You’ll never be far from everything you need, whether it’s for a late-night study session or a weekend out.

 

 

Why Urban Student Stands Out

At Urban Student, we don’t just offer a place to stay—we provide a comprehensive living experience designed to help students thrive. With our top-notch amenities, secure environment, and focus on student well-being, we offer a unique and exceptional alternative to traditional student accommodation. Whether you’re a first-year student or a postgraduate, Urban Student is here to make your university experience comfortable, convenient, and memorable.
