Central Quay

Explore Sheffield’s industrial heritage from your home at Central Quay, tucked away in the peaceful Kelham Island quarter. Awash with stunning architecture and beautifully restored warehouses - the Globe Works and Kelham Island Museum are amongst your closest neighbours. Stroll down cobbled streets, grab a coffee with the hipster crowd at The Grind or share a pizza at Craft & Dough. Come evening the area’s specialist real ale pubs, recognised as some of the best in Britain, await your visit.

Despite benefitting from a tranquil location just north of the city centre, Central Quay is only a 15-minute walk to the lively student areas in the centre of town. With both Sheffield Hallam and Sheffield Uni within a similar walking distance, it’s perfectly located for those who favour a peaceful living environment, but want to remain within touching distance of city life. 

This is also reflected in your room, designed to be stress-free from day one. Lookout into a secluded courtyard; over rooftops of historic landmarks - many rooms have a serene river view. With bills included, communal laundry and free Wi-Fi, you needn’t worry about a thing staying at Unite Students Central Quay. Also with a fully fitted kitchen and Tesco Express located inside the building, you won’t be going hungry anytime soon.

Security teams are on hand to look after you 24/7, property staff will answer any questions about your new home, while maintenance issues can be reported via the Host. portal, which leaves you with more time for a game of pool in the common room, or to work off some steam in the on-site gym.

At the weekend, take a short bus ride right to one of Sheffield’s beautifully manicured botanical gardens, or discover more about the Steel City’s social history at the Western Park Museum. Or if you prefer to go shopping, then the local High Street is only a short walk away, whilst Meadowhall shopping centre is a 20-minute ride by bus.
