London short
term accommodation

It’s great being a student in London. Not only do you have some of the best colleges and universities anywhere, you also have a rich and diverse city to enjoy.

As a national capital, there are hundreds of landmarks, famous places and sights to see. There are also plentiful shopping, dining and entertainment options.

Even though London is a large, sprawling city, the plentiful public transport means nothing is ever too far away. The entire city is available for you to explore.

We recommend visiting The Tower of London, Tower Bridge, The National Gallery, The Natural History Museum, Leicester Square, Chinatown, St. Paul's Cathedral, The Victoria and Albert Museum, Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace, The Science Museum, London Eye and The British Museum to name just a few of the many hundreds of places to visit.

There is no central shopping district in London as it’s too spread out for that, but Chinatown, Oxford Street, Regent Street, St James’s, Bond Street, Mayfair, Westfield, Carnaby Street, Covent Garden and the King's Road are all worth visiting.

Sanctuary Students has student accommodation all across London. Locations include Whitechapel, Newington, King’s Cross, Mile end, WC1, E1, E3 and other locations too.

We are constantly expanding our property portfolio to include many popular student areas within a short bus, Tube or Uber ride to leading London colleges and universities.

London has one of the most expensive property markets in the world but Sanctuary Students has the ability to insulate you from most of that. Our student rooms in London offer amazing value and certainly compete well with private landlords and halls of residence.

What’s more, rents in our student houses in London are fully inclusive, so you only need to worry about rent and food. That’s a significant advantage and makes life much easier to manage!

London is as safe as any major city. As long as you take practical precautions and watch where you go, you’re as safe here as you are in any city in the world. The police are responsive and have done a lot to reduce crime, so while it does exist, as long as you’re careful, crime is nothing to worry about here.

We specialise in delivering quality student accommodation in a safe and supportive living environment. We have 24-hour security staff and emergency helplines, secure entry and CCTV. You’ll also receive round-the-clock support from our maintenance teams to make sure everything runs smoothly.

What’s more, all our London private halls are fully inclusive. The price you see is the price you pay.

Rents include heating, water, electricity, contents insurance, Wi-Fi, cleaning of the social areas, maintenance and security.

Not many student accommodation offerings can beat that!

London has one of the best public transport networks in the world. It has the London Underground that covers most of the city, a 24/7 bus service, taxis, overland trains, Uber, cycle taxis and even river taxis.

You’ll never have an issue getting around when you stay in student accommodation in London.

Yes, you can! If you’re undertaking postgraduate study at a recognised college or university, you can stay in any Sanctuary Students property. We would say it’s the perfect solution as it offers private spaces away from the noise while still offering the opportunity to be social when you’re not working.

London is full of shops, shopping centres, pubs, bars, restaurants, cafes, entertainment venues, museums, galleries, nightclubs and any amenity you could possibly need.

Many of these venues locate themselves close to colleges and universities precisely so they are convenient for students. You’re never far from where you need to be in a Sanctuary Students short term let!
