I’m happy here. The management service is excellent and I’m very comfortable in my room. The social spaces available are really good and I enjoy working down there sometimes during the weekends. The vending machine is also a bonus, as I usually crave snacks. The internet with my laptop works great but sometimes with my phone it disconnects, although that may be an issue on my end. Overall, very happy, definitely recommend!

All the Answers You Need About Student Accommodation
What tenancy length do I need?
Some students choose to stay during the academic year, whilst others – particularly international students – require a tenancy that covers the entire year. You can also find student accommodation that is available for one or two terms, classified as a “short stay” on our search filters.
Should I stay in catered student accommodation?
This is totally up to you! Catered accommodation means you will be served meals at set times in a dining hall, and you’ll likely have access to fewer kitchen facilities than if you were to stay in self-catered accommodation.
What is a guarantor and do I need one?
A guarantor is a person who signs a contract to agree to pay your rent if you are unable to. Most university accommodation requires a guarantor, and this applies to both domestic and international students.
Will I need to pay a deposit on student accommodation?
Most likely, yes, you’ll need to pay a deposit. This will be refunded at the end of your stay as long as there is no damage to the room or property.
What bills will my rent include?
If you are staying in university-run accommodation or private halls, your rent should include any utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and internet. Students are not required to pay council tax, however you may need to fill in an exemption form so make sure you check with your local council.
What is purpose-built student accommodation?
Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) are residential buildings designed for students. They are often located close to campus, boast modern facilities, include all bills, and often have staff on site to assist residents.
Will my student accommodation be furnished?
Student accommodation is typically fully furnished. Your room should include at least a bed, clothes storage, desk and chair. You’ll likely need to bring things such as bedding and kitchen utensils, but we have a full list here of everything you’ll need.

Lovely building and room, and really friendly staff. Great location too
I’m happy here. The management service is excellent and I’m very comfortable in my room. The social spaces available are really good and I enjoy working down there sometimes during the weekends. The vending machine is also a bonus, as I usually crave snacks. The internet with my laptop works great but sometimes with my phone it disconnects, although that may be an issue on my end. Overall, very happy, definitely recommend!
Really lovely place to live, is very pricey but understandable for the location, staff are super friendly, WiFi is good but I’m on the bottom floor and barely have any service, social space is well equipped
Andrea, Ruby, and Martin have been very helpful during my time here, always attentive to any potential issues and resolving them quickly when notified. Thank you!
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you fell supported happy with your Stay at Avon Studios.
The greatest disappointment is the poor quality of the fittings and furniture- sure, maintenence requests are dealt with swiftly, but every other month or so something else will break, leak, or not work as expected. The appropriate tools are not used for repairs, with the staff opting to use household objects in your room to fix things. The heating is wonky, the bed frame creaks, the mattress is splitting, and the bathroom is entirely plastic with a rough unpleasant floor surface that's difficult to clean. There's also a lack of natural light in the lower tier studios as they wanted to maximise the number of units in the floor plan. The studios can be quite noisy depending on your luck, and the most common noise is the shutting of doors because the doors don't lock unless you slam! Also, there is no security on-site; reception is only open during working hours. You can find better accommodation for this price.

My partner and I have had the best experience in Avon Studios! From friendly and sociable management to cleanliness and location, this place has it all. We share a bronze room so it is a little bit of a squeeze for a couple, however it suits us perfectly. Would recommend to anyone!
Hi, thank you for your review! We're glad to hear you and your partner enjoyed your stay with us and would recommend living with us. Many thanks, the Avon Studios Residents' Team
I have been living in this accommodation for 3 years, and it's been a flawless experience. Location is ideal with a splendid view on the Avon river. Staff is extremely genuine and helpful with anything you might need during work hours. The rooms are well designed and perfect for a comfortable student experience. Covid-19 measures are fully respected by all staff and students. Would recommend for anyone looking for an enjoyable place to live during their studies.
Hi, we're so happy to have had you stay with us for the past 3 years! Thank you for your review and recommendation. Many thanks, the Avon Studios Residents' Team
Covid 19: I’m booking again for next year! This place has been super safe, staff send you weekly updates and check in if you isolate. Not one case of Covid to date in here, and I can see why the building is kept so clean the staff are doing so much to Help, they bought my shopping when I couldn’t go out, and picked up my click and collect from Argos next door! if you need something they will sort it!
We're more than happy to help and glad that you have felt supported through Covid-19! Please let us know if we can assist with anything else. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
It’s been a strange year but the staff at Avon have been so helpful. I’m always greeted with a “morning” and a smile, on my way out by Rachel. They’ve been with us through the whole pandemic and have always been there for a chat when needed, I have to say it’s super clean and has made me feel abit safer being at uni. Hats off to them they have tired to make the best of not a great situation!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a 5 star review! We're glad to hear you have felt supported during your time with us. Please let us know if we can help with anything else. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Photo is wrong and outdated. Stay clear of this place, its built right next to an argos depot and a recycling cente so all day long there are rattling cages and vans and lorries coming in and out. No soundproofing in the rooms at all, so you can hear everything. Tiny kitchens with a tiny fridge/freezer. 2 washing machines for over 100 rooms? I could go on for days :/
I think the style and the decoration for the rooms and the whole buliling.
We're glad to hear you're a fan of our interior design! Many thanks for the review. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Pretty decent halls to be honest. Study area is a little small but the rest of the facilities are great. Staff are always nice and they put on some great things for us to do every now n again. The rave event was pretty awesome last month and free food is always a winner haha Would like some more social things but over the last few months it’s been really good. It can be noisy at night but just through people coming home late which is just life!
Thank you for your review! We're happy to hear you have enjoyed our events and hope you continue to do so! Let us know if you have any ideas for future events. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
The room was not cleaned on moving-in day during summer. However, after telling them, they tried to solve it.
Hi, Thank you for your review. We apologise for your room not being cleaned but we're glad we could resolve this quickly for you. Please let us know if we can help with anything. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
A nice accomodation, a bit far from city center but still in a nice area.
Many thanks for you review! We're sorry to hear you feel we're a little far from the centre, but don't forget we have a bus stop right outside. Please let us know if we can help with anything else. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Everything is good! The staffs are friendly and helpful.
Happy to hear that you have found us helpful! Thank you for the review. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I had an amazing time staying at avon studios. Felt like home. All amenities were nearby and the stay was very comfortable. I would highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for your recommendation! We're glad you enjoyed your time with us. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I really like the studios, the only thing that really bothers me is the windows. The opening is wayyyyyy to small, when you cook the smell stays and it doesn’t allow the room to be sufficiently ventilated. Otherwise everything is really nice
We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with the windows - this is a required safety feature. Thank you for your review - we're glad you liked your studio & the rest of Avon Studios. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
To live in the Avon Studios has medium value for money. The studios look modern but a closer look reveals the low to medium quality of furniture. The bathroom is fully made of plastic - no tiles are used. The floor is PVC, the kitchenette is low quality press board and the mattress is awful. The location is very good, the quiet location next to the avon river is very nice. The management is very friendly and helpful. The cleaning in the social spaces and washing rooms is fairly good. The social space is fine, the pool table makes it much better. The internet is fairly good.
Hi, thank you for your review! If you have any maintenance issues please report this on our maintenance portal and we will look into this asap. We're glad to hear you have enjoyed our location, features and management. Please let us know if we can help with anything. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I very strongly believe that if it wasn’t for Rachael and team (Joe & David) managing Avon Studios, I would’ve not felt like home. They go above and beyond for all residents to ensure that they are as comfortable as they would be in their home. In addition to that, the positive energies are absolutely incredible. There’s always a solution in place. I only happened to extend my contract because of some of these reasons.
Many thanks for the review - it's great to hear that we've made you feel at home and you've extended your contract! The Avon Studios Residents' Team
High-Quality Student Halls, with exceptional views and great staff.
Happy to hear you've enjoyed your time with us! The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I think overall it’s not bad but one thing I’d like to address is that the people who lives in here sometimes they can make a lot of noise at night while people are sleeping so if it can be improved that will be better
Hi, thanks for your review! We're sorry to hear you are having issues with other Residents, if this happens again please let us know as we will find a way to resolve this asap. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Love living here. Super convenient and on lots of main bus routes! Everyone is super friendly and the staff are super helpful. There’s always someone cleaning which is amazing :)
Glad to hear you found us helpful and you enjoyed your time with us! Thank you so much for the review. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I stayed at Avon Studios 6 months during placement. My stay was enjoyable. I did feel somewhat that it was quieter than I expected, however I made some great friends and found it very social during the evenings and weekends. The staff were great, always friendly and quick to offer help. The rooms are great, I had a balcony so I could sit outside and read which was nice. Having balcony made my space feel much more open and I could enjoy fresh air easier. Sometimes windows can be little help when it’s 30 outside. The communal areas were always clean and tidy, they also have lots of free stuff on Fridays which was always nice. Basically I would stay here again if I hadn’t now finished my course! Privately renting is much harder than having a team of staff doing everything for you, keep it while you can!
Many thanks for the thorough review! We're pleased to hear you would have stayed longer if you could! The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Avon studios is relatively, quite during the week. It’s not a party halls if that’s what your looking for. Argos can be a bit noisy at times, but nothing too dramatic. It’s quite expensive but so is all bath accommodation, Location is ok, it takes me about 25 minutes on the bus to get the campus but it’s only a 5 min walk to the bus stop. Sometimes a cab can be quicker if your in a rush. The staff are friendly here, and always ready to help where they can. Shops are reasonable, Tesco is just around the corner. If you want a place to stay that’s friendly and reasonably socialable this is a good choice.
Thank you so much for your review! If we can assist with anything please let us know. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Overall I loved it here, I stayed with my girlfriend as a guest over the year. It was a little pricey but for us it was ok as we shared at no extra cost, so great option for couples!We had lots of space and there’s always something to and the staff were always nice. We could pop in and have a chat and there was a new manager just before we left who made a real difference, really positive vibes. If I was coming back to uni I next year I would have stayed on myself.
Happy to hear you and your girlfirend enjoyed your studio! We're pleased to hear you would have stayed if you could. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Management of accommodation is good but previous scheme (dedicated tenants) was more effective when solving issues with being locked out of room / accommodation
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Our Residents' Team are always available to help - please contact us on our mobile, or on the emergency number outside of hours. Many thanks, The Avon Studios Residents' Team
The river side is really pleasant in the morning. For a free internet service it’s very good however the one where you have to pay doesn’t give you much, could be more expensive but with a real upgrade. I have to say for the rest, didn’t have any problem at all.
Thanks for the review! Our Wi-Fi is included as part of your rent - if you're having any issues please let us know and we will investigate this for you. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
As a first year student, I would not recommend Avon. There is no social interaction and most of the people staying were masters/post graduate students. So, my experimence was not great in terms of social life. The onsite team was friendly and the room was great. Appart from the fact that the ventillation was not great, and if you cooked, it took time for the smell to leave your room, as you cannot really open the windows.
Hi, we're sorry to hear this, but glad to hear you enjoyed your room and our service. Our team run regular social events to get to know your neighbours. The windows are restricted as a necessary safety feature. Please get in contact if we can assist with anything. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
I like y room as it is modern, big and has all the essential things in it. For the high rent I expected more things to be free such as laundry or room cleaning of some sort. It was advertised that there is a "buzzing calendar full of social events". So far there have been 2 events which were not very attractive to me. The necessary repairs have not been dealt with very quickly which I find odd. Despite that, the site manager and staff are very kind.
Hi there, we do run regular events - if you have an idea for an event you would be more interested in please let us know and we would be happy to look into this for you. If you are having any issues with maintenace please let us know so we can investigate for you. Many thanks, The Avon Studios Residents' Team
The hall was nowhere near worth the price, living directly outside the smelly refuse centre. My key didn't work for the first week I was there, requiring me to call people to let me in. However, the room was very nice and the staff were friendly.
Hi, we're sorry to hear this. If you are having any issues with your key please let the Residents' Team know or call the emergency number so that someone can come to let you in. If we can help with anything please let us know. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
Steep prices for what you actually get, considering alternatives in the area. Decent links to bath city centre but journey times to university advertised on website is the bare minimum on a Lucky day and usually takes far longer. Studios are nice, but rather cramped for what you pay for and what else is available in the area. Balcony studios are a great option if considering to live in this building, however, beware of large amounts of dust / dirt that flows in from the balcony due to the ongoing construction in and around this area. Those studios that are not river facing often face disturbances from a large Argos warehouse often in the early most hours of the morning. Hall management team are top notch. Really lovely, helpful and accommodating. Best part to consider is that the building is pretty much all students which is ideal, although it takes a great effort to get everyone out of their studios into the social spaces.
Hi, thank you for your review. If we can assist with anything please let us know. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
It’ll be better If there could be more washing machines and security hours at weekends.
Thank you for your review. We have out of hours security arrangements available overnight and 24/7 on weekends. If you need any help or have any questions please let us know. The Avon Studios Residents' Team
