Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi

From your student accommodation at Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi, start your day with a walk to Parc de la Ciutat to relax with a book in the sun. After, stop for a refreshing iced coffee at Cafeteria Oleas, before heading to the coast for a dip in the sea at Playa El Milagro. Sample Spanish history with a visit to Catedral Basilica Metropolitana Primada de Tarragona, or discover Tarragona’s archeological gems at Museu Nacional Arqueologic de Tarragona. Later, stroll to the old harbour and secure a table with friends at Taverna del Mar to feast on giant fresh prawns and sip local cava.

It’s easy to get to class from Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi, as you’re just a 24-minute walk from Universitat Rovira i Virgili. Or hop on the bus and arrive in 19 minutes. On weekends, catch the express train and arrive in Salou in half an hour, or get to Barcelona in just over an hour.

With weekly linen changes and cleaning of rooms and communal areas included, you’ll love waking up each morning in a tidy apartment. If you’re feeling energetic, set your alarm early for a workout in the fitness room, then enjoy a healthy breakfast made for you in the communal canteen.

After a day of classes, stop by the vending machine to grab a snack, then return to your room to finish off your work at your desk. If you have a group project to work on, meet friends in the communal cyber centre and print your assignment when you’re done. You can always borrow a laptop from reception if you don’t have your own. Later, log onto the free Wi-Fi and Skype family back home, before catching up with friends in one of Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi’s common areas.

When hunger strikes, head to the dining room for a healthy meal with your neighbours – full board from Sunday dinner until Friday lunchtime is included in your rent. Later, watch your favourite movie in the TV and DVD room, then tick off one of your chores by taking a pile of washing down to the on-site laundry room. Get some fresh air before bed on the outdoor terrace, or call your friends on the landline to make plans for the weekend.  

At Residencia Universitaria Sant Jordi, the 24-hour reception team are available for any questions you might have, and an on-site maintenance team are on hand if you have any problems.
