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.

I can't recommend this accommodation highly enough. I've enjoyed every part of my stay here so far!
Great location, nice staff and no carpet floors in the rooms. Any issues I have had have been resolved promptly - can't complain.
Amazing building with good amenities and close to the city centre. Problems are adressed promptly and quickly solved.
Cork Street is a great place to live! Kind staff that will go above and beyond for you! It’s a home away from home.
Alan is the best thing about this place
Extremely good wifi, and above average in pretty much every aspect. The price is a bit expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Love it here, great space and great location! Also very friendly staff
Great friends and great amenities. Bit far from school but it’s nice to get out of the busy areas
Really sparious rooms, cool facilities and lovely staff!
Good clean accommodation in a nice location
Excellent facilities and maintenance as well as friendly staff. Rooms are modern with great bathrooms. 20 minute walk to city center. There’s a bus stop right outside building facility and 2 minute walk from lidl supermarket. Perfect student accommodation.
Really enjoying my stay here so far! Nice kitchens and rooms and staff are really helpful.
I didn’t face with any problem, they are always ready to help. Thank you so muc.
It’s a great place in a great location!
The location is great and the neighborhood is quiet safe. The bus stop right outside is a plus!
Great place to stay! The bed is huge, lots of storage, staff are friendly and accommodating, social spaces are great and clean, city is really close. Overall, would recommend for everyone.
I had a wonderful stay at Here! on Cork Street. As a PhD student, having a gold ensuite room to share with three others was perfect – I always had the privacy and quiet space to focus on my work. The room had everything I needed, with plenty of storage and natural light. The spacious kitchen easily accommodated all four of us. Knowing Dublin pretty well, I found the location to be ideal. It's within walking distance of Trinity College. Plus, the nearby bus stop was handy for longer trips. What really stood out was the staff! No matter how stressed I was, they greeted me with a friendly smile and were always ready to lend a hand. They responded to my emails promptly and politely answered all my questions. I felt safe and comfortable throughout my time there and I wish I could have extended my stay. A special mention to the hardworking cleaning staff for keeping everything in top shape. Overall, it was an amazing experience!
Really enjoyed my time living on Cork street! It was a great location, and the rent was reasonable considering I was in a studio. The staff were exceptional, they were very friendly and always sorted any issues I had promptly. The only reason I am leaving my place is because I am not a student anymore, I would have gladly stayed longer if I could have!
The premise is excellent: it is clean, well-maintained, safe, and the staff very helpful. The process leading up to the booking was also very smooth, as I was able to secure the booking before I arrived in Dublin, which is almost impossible if you are renting an apartment, since that would typically require in-person viewing and meeting with the landlord. The facilities are adequate, with a spacious kitchen and living room in our corridor, decent 24-hour gym, and a good study space. Admittedly the price is a bit on the higher side, but this is also unsurprising given the shortage of housing in Dublin. If price is not a concern, I would highly recommend Here! Cork Street to any potential students.
Room and kitchen were very dirty when moving in. Especially the kitchen was in an unlivable state. The place is located in an area that is full of drug addicts and dealers, not uncommon to see people dealing right outside the door. Trying to get something fixed is hopeless. I notified management multiple times about a broken freezer and a broken tap in the kitchen and it was still broken when I moved out 40 weeks later. The staff is friendly and helpful for quick advice, anything beyond that gets lost and never gets completed. The Manager is very bossy and unhelpful, gives a lot of attitude without helping fix an issue (literally told me the freezer can’t be replaced asap “because you are only one of 399 students here”). Also 1 of the 4 blocks of the accommodation is rented out to language students who arrive every 2-3 weeks, basically turning it into a hotel (and they usually treat it as such) with loud music every evening and people drinking and doing drugs in the courtyard.
God send for a lad looking for somewhere last minute. I've paid more for worse, would definitely recommend as a place to stay
I have lived here throughout my student experience. I have been very happy with the staff, facilities of the accommodation and everything.
I had a great stay at Here on cork street! The staff made me feel like home and the accommodations were both functional and comfortable. Could not have asked for a better stay this past semester!
overall good experience. there were a few issues that occurred over the year, but they were solved within a quick time frame.
I had a wonderful experience at Cork Street. The staff have been absolutely lovely and very accommodating and I looked forward to chatting with them on the way out every morning. Thanks for such a lovely semester in Ireland!
My exchange semester in Dublin would not have been the same without the accommodation on Cork Street. Moving to a capital city was an overwhelming idea, especially given the housing situation in Dublin. I was extremely lucky to find a place there right before my arrival and eventually it became more than just a place - it became a home away from home. I made use out of all the facilities starting from the gym, to the study rooms where I spent so much time studying and to the cinema room where I was watching movies with friends. The kitchen was very spacious together with the common area, and the rooms were very cozy. The location was great, as I walked to the city centre almost every day. But what truly set this place apart was the incredible staff! They were very helpful, always at the reception no matter the time of day/night and I truly miss receiving a smile every time I passed by! This place will always have a special place in my exchange experience!
Here! Cork Street Dublin 8 is everything I needed / wanted as a college student. The building was obviously recently constructed as bathroom, kitchen, windows bedroom etc. are modern, stylish and comfortable. En suite rooms have perfect mix of private/social aspects with flatmates. The communal roof-top, courtyard, living room and gym facilitate fabulous friendship building opportunities and the staff are very responsive and helpful. Location is unbelievable. Within minutes you can be strolling through St. Patricks Park and pop out near the never dull Camden Street. Could go on but will refrain - no one paid me to say this, just a happy resident.
It is so lovely read such a strong and positive review of our site. What more can we say about this review except to offer the same experience to future residents. Regards Cork Street Team !
Great location, well maintained by the management team and cleaning staff. Highly recommended
Hi there! Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback grately! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Here! Cork Street.
Flat mates smoke in apartment kitchen, conversations with both flat mates and staff didn’t solve the problem. One vacuum available for the entire apartment complex. Room wasn’t clean when I arrived, sink was clogged. Took them two days to fix it. No bedding. No kitchen equipment (microwave, oven, stove available). No plates, no pots, no pans, no cutlery. No trash bins. Premises is clean. Staff is friendly. Modern furniture. Nice rooftop. Expensive!!!
Hi there! Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback grately! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Here! Cork Street.
Obviously the rent is way too high. Other than that, the building is very clean and the management team is super friendly and helpful. Maintenance issues are always fixed promptly, and there’s always someone at reception to help you with any question you might have. I wouldn’t want to be in any other student accommodation.
Hi there! Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback grately! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Here! Cork Street.
My main issue is with the main management. There have been a variety of issues and there has either been no response from management or the time taken to respond has been abhorrent. There is a complete lack of communication between the management and the residents, and between the management team themselves. The issues include lack of follow up on issues, and residents in my flat being told different things about the issues. I have not felt heard at all by the management, and felt as though we as students are not been taken seriously. It is evident that the team is not competent to deal with issues efficiently or effectively.

Hi there! Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback, it is grately appreciated. We are delighted to hear that you have enjoyed your stay at Here! Cork Street.
The main issue I have with this accommodation is the management on site. I have reported many issues that have taken extensive amounts of time to be resolved with some still ongoing. We don’t always feel heard as students with our reports not being treated with urgency. There have been times when there has been poor communication between staff and ourselves with multiple house members getting told different information.

From here cork street - I have been living here for about a year now and the service has been excellent thus far. The management has been very supportive to any of my queries or requests. Also, Damien in particular, has helped me a lot right through my stay here and would happily recommend this place to students as there is good connectivity to most universities.
We are so happy to hear that you have enjoyed your stay at Cork Street and found our team members helpful and friendly. We aim to make our students stay with us as pleasant as possible, aiming for that home away from home experience while during your free time get to meet new friends on site and discover all the amazing sites and nightlife Dublin has to offer, all within a short distance from Cork Street. Regards Cork Street Team
Great new and modern house in Dublin 8 in a very nice and fairly central area. Everything you need is within walking distance (1 minute Lidl, 15 minutes Temple Bar, 20 minutes Trinity) yet with a bus stop right outside. Since the beginning of the year, a new management has been in place, which really deals with problems differently and shows much more commitment to the residents. Prices are comparable to other student housings. Tip: If you like it quieter, you should avoid rooms facing the street, which is quite busy (go for Block B and C).
We are so happy to read your amazing feedback and sharing how easy it is to reach local amenities. We feel you got to know the site and area very well which in reading your review other students will feel a lot more confident when booking with the team @ Cork Street, many thanks.
One of the best student living experience, one can ask for. Great social spaces, spacious personal rooms and living rooms, interactive events, and the best management team on call. A special thank you to Damien Daly and Stacey Sheridan for their warm hospitality and consideration for everyone.
Many thanks for your lovely feedback and including the kind words for the team. We love our role as a team, from meeting our new students, to assisting them with queries but eventually to see them settled and enjoying all that the site has to offer, from social spaces, great bedrooms and lots of social activities throughout their stay. Thank you.
Great management! Damien ensure all issues are addressed and resolved in the most appropriate and efficient ways.
Many thanks for your positve review. We appriciate your kind words regarding the team and feel happy that you felt listened to and secure while you stayed with us.
It has been lovely staying at this beautiful accommodation coming from home 7000 kms away.
Dear Valued Student, Thank you for taking time to send us your lovely review. We take pride in keeping Cork street up to the best standard thats expected by all our students. Best regards, Cork street Team

Dear Valued student, We were delighted to read that you found our property Amazing. We strive to keep up our high standards throughout the year. Great to also hear that you found our team at cork very friendly & suppotive. We enjoy making our students feel at home. Many thanks, Cork street Team
I am very happy to have lived here, especially since the current GM, Damian Daly started his work, the place became more than just an accommodation service, but gained a family atmosphere. I am happy to have stayed here.
Dear Student, Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. We were delighted to read that you felt at home during your stay at Cork street. I will pass on your kind words to Damien as I am sure he will be pleased to hear. Best regards, Cork street Team
The most unfriendly staff I've ever had to deal with. Once I wanted to get a parcel from reception. The woman was totally annoyed by me asking anything and then threw my parcel on the counter. If it would have been fragile, it would have been broken by that. Luckily it was mostly cloth.
I'm sorry to hear you've had a disappointing experience but thank you for your feedback which is invaluable to us and encourages us to further better our service. Cork Street Team
Staff don't do their jobs, THEY LOST MY MONEY for 4 months!!! I paid my rent on time and they lost it somehow and because they don't give you actual receipts you have no real proof of paying. Also when you go to ask them anything they respond without care or sympathy, they don't take down which packages come regularly so when you go to ask them if there is a package for you, instead of checking the storage room they tell you to check an excel sheet (which they dont update on some days - Sundays are understandable but Wednesdays???) and when you ask the security guard 2 hours later, the package is magically there... The rooms were dirty when moving in so people had to call for staff or clean them themselves. There are many problems which you pay WAY TOO MUCH for, for example: the buttons to flush the toilet don't work properly in many rooms, the drains are clogged so you have to pull out someones hair out of them when you move in, heating doesn't go below 25 in some rooms -sleeping suck
