Living at Athena Hall you can walk out of your front door into the vibrant environment of the waterfront. Sit at a café and admire the vast array of sailing vessels berthed at the marina or stop for cocktails at the boutique waterside hotel, The Salthouse. No need to check in - you’ll have your own waterside pad. A short stroll and you’re in the town centre where you can explore timber framed shops or stop at the beautiful old Arcade Street Tavern for a craft beer.

With UOS only minutes away, Athena Hall is in an ideal location. Take a bus to the centre of the hub or better still, start your morning with a stroll into uni along the waterfront. Just across the River Orwell is Ipswich Station, where you can catch a train to London for the day.

Because you’re so central in this compact town you can get to the shopping and its parks, restaurants, bars - everything you need - very easily. Athena Hall provides you with plenty of entertainment and convenience though too. You’ll have access to free Wi-Fi, a laundry room and organised social events, not to mention spacious recreation areas where you can master table tennis or just relax on the couch and watch TV. If you need assistance, a management team is on-site weekdays to help you.

After a long day of lectures, retire to your ensuite room, complete with shower, comfortable small double bed, workspace and extra storage. Whether you choose to live in a shared flat or private studio, you’ll enjoy a fully fitted kitchen and relaxing living space too. Depending on which side of the building you’re staying in, you will enjoy equally views of the courtyard or the bustling waterfront.
