London can trace its origins to Roman times. It has been a major settlement for over two thousand years and over the centuries it has grown to become the largest city and the capital of the United Kingdom.
During the Middle Ages, London became a major centre of government when most of the government functions were centred around Westminster in the 12th century. Difficult times came in the mid-17th century when London was first hit by the Great Plague in 1665-1666 and soon after the Great Fire of London destroyed a large part of the city, with rebuilding taking over ten years.
With the start of the Industrial Revolution, major urbanisation happened in the 19th century and London grew rapidly. It was the largest city in the world for almost 100 years, up until 1925. The population density was high and especially in the East End, huge amounts of people lived in a relatively small area.
The first half of the 20th century brought two world wars, but also the 1948 Olympics at Wembley Stadium. Wembley also hosted the World Cup final in 1966, when England won its first, and so far only, World Cup. Today London is one of the most important cities in the world. In the classification of global cities, London is one of only two cities, along with New York City, placed in the highest Alpha ++ category.
Student living in London can be an incredible experience. From green spaces and quaint pubs in Kensington & Chelsea, to the creative haven of Shoreditch, students can explore the city’s network of neighbourhoods, each hugely diverse in their own distinct character. Kings Cross is jam-packed full of food and music venues, thanks to its proximity to many of London’s top universities, while the City of London dazzles with its array of iconic skyscrapers. Borough Market next to London Bridge is a great spot for any food lovers, having served Londoners since the 12th century.
When the weather is beautiful, you can enjoy it in one of London’s many green spaces. Be sure to check out Hyde Park and Regent’s Park, as well as the fantastic views from the top of Primrose Hill. When it comes to shopping, you can find everything in London. Head to Oxford Street to shop ‘til you drop. Make sure to catch a West End show or a Premier League football match during your time in the British capital, both great experiences even for people who are not normally fans of theatre or football.

We currently offer three different types of student rooms in London.
A Shared Room has two or more people sleeping in the same bedroom. Other living spaces, like kitchens, bathrooms and living rooms are shared with occupants of other rooms.
In a Private Room you have a private bedroom just for yourself. Depending on the property, you might also get a private bathroom. Other facilities are shared with other tenants.
In an Entire Place, you get a fully self-contained studio property. This means no sharing, as your bedroom and all other facilities in your flat are just for you, including a private bathroom and a private kitchenette for cooking meals.
This depends on the property you rent, but most of our properties in London have all bills included, so you’ll only have to pay the rent and nothing else. Remember to make sure if this is the case with the property you’ve chosen though. You can see what bills are included on the property page of every property.
We carefully vet all the landlords we feature and only list properties from trusted student accommodation providers to ensure that all the housing options we feature are trustworthy and safe.
Many of our PBSAs (purpose-built student accommodations) have safety features like controlled-access gates and 24/7 onsite security.
If you’ll be in London before moving in, this can be arranged with our booking consultants. Many of the properties we list have excellent photos and videos available on the property pages though, so even if you won’t be able to get to London before your move-in date, you will be able to get a good idea of what your accommodation will look like.
A guarantor is a person who signs the rental contract with you and commits to paying your rent if you can’t. A guarantor is most typically a family member, but it can be anyone. Most UK landlords want you to have a guarantor, so you’ll most likely need one in London.
If you have any other questions, you can check our FAQ page or contact one of our booking consultants by phone or live chat. They are always happy to help!
