iQ Shoreditch

iQ Shoreditch is a great option if you’re looking for a student home in London and want to live in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the UK’s largest city.

A great location in the trendy Shoreditch

With galleries, cafés, boutiques and clubs moments away from your cosy Shoreditch student home, it’s hard to beat iQ Shoreditch for location. The birthplace of the East London hip revolution, fashion, culture and fun expand in every direction in Shoreditch. Creative events, music space Village Underground and cutting edge club XOYO are just over the road. Relax in Hoxton Square or book a table at Nightjar for a secret slice of speakeasy cool, both just round the corner from your new home. When you want some nature and greenery, Shoreditch Park and the Regent’s Canal are both about 10 minutes away.

Getting around

Old Street tube station, which serves the Northern line, is a mere two-minute walk away. This makes it easy to get to your university as well as explore everything London has to offer. You can get to University College London and the London South Bank University in about 15 minutes. King’s College London, Queen Mary University of London and the London School of Economics (LSE) are about 25-30 minutes away. When you want to get to know your new home city, you can get to Westminster in 12 minutes and to Oxford Circus in 18.

Staying at iQ Shoreditch

All rooms at iQ Shoreditch are studios, meaning that you will enjoy the privacy of a fully self-contained property. You’ll have your own private bathroom as well as a kitchen where you can cook your own meals. Most studios are around 17-19m2 in size but there are also larger Gold and Platinum studios that are about 20m2 and 23m2 respectively. 

There is an on-site laundry room where you can wash your clothes. The controlled access gates, CCTV cameras and a security officer patrolling 24 hours a day make sure you can always feel safe in your new home. If anything should break, just contact the maintenance team that is on-site 24 hours a day and they’ll take care of it.

Things included in the rent

All bills are included in your rent. This includes electricity, water, gas and heating. There is also free Wi-Fi so you won’t have to worry about data when you want to stream films or have a video call with your family back home. A contents insurance is also included in the rent.

Spend your free time at the iQ Shoreditch

After you’ve spent some time studying in the privacy of your own room or in the dedicated study facilities of the property, you’ll want to spend some free time. You can hang out in the courtyard or head to the on-site gym when you feel like getting some exercise. Make new friends at the regular social events or head to the brand-new sky lounge, first opening its doors in the autumn of 2019.

The sky lounge includes some great amenities, including a games area, kitchen, designer seating, study facilities and some magnificent views across London from its 16th-floor vantage point.
