Is it a good social environment? I'll be moving to Uni myself and it'll be important for me to meet some people of course.

Q
Is there a gym at the Fraser studios
By member849162 On 8th June 20
Hi There, we unfortunately dont have a gym on-site, however we do offer a membership to the Aberdeen Sports Village as part of our tenancies. ASV is an excellent facility in easy walking distance, has a full gym, swimming pool and athletics track as well as much more! So even better!

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.

Amazing place, been staying here for a few years now & no complaints 😀
The location is quite convenient, 5-minute walk from the supermarket and 15-minute walk from the school. There is a bus stop downstairs, which makes it easy to get to the city center and the airport. The service is very good and the staff are very helpful.
Fraser is so good, I live here for 2 years.
Best place to live，I really really look this studio
Good, some things could be updated or maintaned( indavidual rooms, carpets etc) but overall very good for the area.
Despite the appealing location and the friendliness of the staff, my experience living in this student accommodation has been a little less than satisfactory. The way the social spaces are treated and left by students is disappointing, and deters me from using them. Furthermore, the lack of staff and/or security during the weekends is a concern and, in my opinion, both would be necessary additions to improve the living conditions in this building.
Nice building, friendly staff.
This apartment has a nice environment and a lot of space. It makes me happy to live here
I love the accommodation very much, staffs here are so nice and patient, thanks for Stacey’s helping me. I already extended the next year tenancy.
I have been staying at FS Studios for 6 months now and the service here is very good along with the infrastructure. My classmates and I really enjoy relaxing through a movie in the cinema room on weekends. All in all, it is basically very good and I love it here.
good The environment is very good, the geographical location is very good, downstairs is the Chinese Super League, beautiful scenery. The environment is very good, the geographical location is very good, downstairs is the Chinese Super League, beautiful scenery.
In general it is very good, the heating is good, the location is convenient, the staff is very helpful and often prepares various festivals
Love it. I can walk easily to my university. Staff is friendly and helpful. Love them. Social events are fun and I love the food they gave me. Near Lidl so I can shop easily. Spacious room and conveniently equipped with a microwave, toaster, laundry room, communal area, study space and very systematic way to administer, great for the price. Totally worth it.
Everything is great and clean Property management is helpful
I do not regret spending my whole university years here :). Not moving out and only doing another degree to stay here.
My time at Fraser Studios has been wonderful. The staff are lovely and always extremely helpful if I have any questions or concerns. I'd highly recommend it to anyone considering.
It‘s nice place to live and study and it is near by the university and supermarket it is convenient to live in fraser studio
Had a great experience at the fraser studios staff and people there are really nice.
My experience living in Fraser has been incredibly positive. It not only provided a comfortable and convenient living space, but also contributed to my overall university experience. The staff are amazing and are great at addressing any concerns or issues. I highly recommend this accommodation to fellow students looking for a supportive and friendly living environment.
Staff are incredibly sweet and helpful. Love the social spaces. Definitely worth the price.
Amazing accommodation for any student looking for a place to live! Very lovely staff.
I love living at fraser studios. it’s in a good location, close to the city centre with supermarkets nearby. the common areas are nice and i love spending time there with my friends. the staff are so kind and welcoming and always help if you have a problem. i would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for somewhere in aberdeen
Excellent location, high quality studios in a good state of repair with fantastic staff members. Building does get hot on sunny days.
I am so happy to have found Frasers as my accommodation! Not only is the location ideal, but the spacious studios are amazing! My own ensuite bathroom and kitchen are just perfect for me and the communal areas allow for me to meet new people and make new friends! The staff is super friendly. Anything you need they are ready to help with or ready to answer any of your questions and concerns! I absolutely love it here and could not imagine living anywhere else while studying in Aberdeen!
Nice for living The location is convenient
I think Fraser studios is very good,
I have lived here for 6 months now and the place is lovely. The staff are all very friendly and nice and the room is very spacious. The location is ideal as it’s close to University the city centre and supermarkets.
Fraser studios is really great. But if the reception is 24h survives would be best!!
The staff is very kind and will try their best to help you solve problems. Favourite maintenance staff, especially kind and enthusiastic. Sometimes there will be garbage in the corridor, but I hope you can pay more attention to protecting the hygiene of public areas.
The rooms are very clean, the staff are very friendly and it's close to the school. I live here with many of my friends and it's easy to go to school together.
I have been living in Fraser for two months now, I think it is very good in Fraser, not far from the school, the supermarket is also very close, thereception service is very good, and the entrance needs a card, so it is very safe, very suitable for students to live
I have stayed at here one year. Everyone is friendly, thanks for everyone . I suggest everyone who wants to rent this studio, send email to them and ask which room will not be exposed to direct sunlight
The price is really reasonable. and the reception desk staff are very friendly. I think the environment here is the best apartment in the Aberdeen dormitory apartment. I hope everyone can book it.
I have a good accommodation experience in Fraser studio. The sound insulation effect of the room is very good, and the front desk staff are also very warm and friendly, which makes me feel at home.
The staff is extremely nice and friendly especially Natalie and kathrine. They were so lovely.
Definitely everything at Fraser Studio is the best! The reception staffs are always patient and friendly. Love Fraser!
very good service， 有一点点吵闹，大家记得不要窗户靠近中超
It’s really nice to live in Fraser studio. Everything is good
You guys deserve it. It’s wonderful. Staff, property and service are very good.
I like this apartment very much. The people at the reception are very friendly. It is very comfortable to live here. There are often activities, and the atmosphere of the apartment is very friendly. I really like the bearded guy at reception (although I don't know his name), he is very enthusiastic to chat with me every time we met.
Lots of fun, people are great, staff are always friendly and helpful and go the extra mile by hosting small events
The staff are great and the overall experience of staying at Fraser Studios is brilliant. The social areas are good for meeting new people and studying. Highly recommend.
Great stay and hospitality. The house is spacious, bright and clean, the equipment is new, and the refrigerator can be heated by microwave after ordering takeout. The bath water is well regulated and does not get too hot or too cold. Cost performance is still high.
The staff at the front desk are all welcoming and responsible. They will patiently help you with your problems. The flat is conveniently located next to a Chinese supermarket and a large supermarket.
I’ve only been here for 2 months now, but it’s a really lovely and safe accommodation and the staff are really nice.
Absolutely amazing, staff is super friendly, helps at every corner in need. Would definitely recommend, student friendly, budget
Fraser’s is great for creating social connects and having a balanced life of working and having fun.
Good place to live :) nice stuff and environment
They are very friendly, and when you have any difficulties, they will come to help you immediately and serve you 24 hours a day
Been living here at Fraser studio(406)for quite a while now and it has been quite an awesome time I got from here especially with the kind&engaging staff who willing to assists at all the time
Living here is very comfortable, the front desk service attitude is very good
Very nice accomodation very close to useful amenities and university. Reception staff are very friendly and helpful, free gym membership.
Perfect very very very very good
Generally speaking, it is not bad. It may be because of the epidemic situation and poor sanitation in public areas. Everything else is great.
Staff are amazing, I've had a great experience living here, only thing that could of made it better was no covid so we would be able to utilise the common areas ect but staff have worked above and beyond to try and keep us entertained and interacting with people.
Amazing building !! All the staff the always very welcoming and friendly, super helpful and always up for a conversation
Nice place, Nice staffs, Nice experience
The team here has been absolutely welcoming and helpful, especially during the covid-19 lockdown. They are always willing to help with whatever issues we might have and always go out of their way to make sure we have virtual social events and activities to help us pass our time during the lockdown. Special shout-out to Phil!
The management in this building is great. everyone feels like a family
After a few days staying at Fraser Studios in Aberdeen I am convinced that it was the right choice! The apartments are really nice layout and its very comfortable to have an on-site bathroom as well as kitchen. In this way one can keep privacy - the social spaces, however, also help to connect with others. The atmosphere is really great, everyone is super helpful and friendly. I was welcomed very warmly, not only by the staff members but also by the other students! We catched up quite fast although some live here for a longer time already. Everyone is willing to help to get used to live in another city/country. The application process was very easy, too. Every question was answered very promptly so that my choice to stay at Fraser Studios was made very fast. I can recommend to live here as it makes studying in Aberdeen very comfortable!
I have lived here for 3 years, really nice people and helpful staffs.
Mr.Philip help me find the badminton centre and hes very nice.the room is spacious and staffs here are friendly.
I moved into Frasers over a month and a bit ago and I have been more than pleased with my choice of accommodation. The facilities are fantastic, the fact we get the gym membership with ASV its amazing (10 min walk from Frasers). The rooms are great, much bigger than I was expecting, only negative is there are only 6 power sockets (extension cards fix everything though). Finally, the staff are so friendly and are super helpful, Phil in particular he is amazing and is always helping and great for a chat. He's pretty cool!
I lived here for my final year. Really like the property. The rooms are spacious. The location is perfect; central to all the gyms, Aberdeen University, as well as the city centre. Personally I find it nice and quiet, which is what I wanted for a studio apartment. All the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful! Couldn't really ask for a better team. Any issues you might have are more or less resolved quickly .Very happy with my stay here.
Excellent experience, helpful staff.
I love the living space and response time from the team 🙂
My experience at Fraser studios have been really nice. The facilities are and common areas are nice. The staff and management are also very welcoming and helpful.
I lived there from 2018 until 2020. It is absolutely brilliant to live there. There is a bus stop nearby, Chinese restaurant nearby, Lidl supermarket is literally just 5 minutes walk, if you want more choice for shopping, then 10 minutes walk to Morrisons. 20 minutes walk to city centre is straight forward, you will not get lost. Room is very clean and posh. It looked like it was designed for easy daily maintenance which is great. However, the downside of living there is the noise disturbance usually happens on the 2nd floor to the 4th floor. (The higher you go, the less noise disturbance). DO NOTE, that vacuum cleaner will regularly disappear by some irresponsible individual. MAKE SURE to join the Fraser Studio's WHATSAPP to keep yourself updated. The social space is just meh, you will eventually use it for study rather than hanging out. The receptionist is super friendly and super helpful. You can trust them with your heart! That is all I can say with 2 years experience.
I decided to stay at Fraser Studios based on the recommendation from a friend who had stayed here. I’ve enjoyed my stay and the experience has been seamless. The staff have been very helpful from the time I made enquiries till now. The location is great as well because it is central and easily accessible to key areas in the city, it also helps that there are bus stops close by. I really like that my parcels and packages get received for me even in my absence. The staff and management have been thoughtful and caring through out the lockdown period by sending updates and even a care package. If you’re thinking of signing up to stay at Fraser Studios, you’re on the right path, just sign up.
Moving to a new country for the first time is absolutely difficult especially with having a short period of getting the acceptance letter and booking accommodation. Even before arrival the staff were beyond helpful and patient (it took a while for me with documents etc). The staff (especially Phil absolute sweetheart!) have been nothing but lovely throughout the year. From just having a chat when it was difficult to make friends and being understanding which is something I absolutely value. Being away from home the first time they made my family at ease knowing I was staying at an accommodation with my own space and so close to places I might need to be. Although there are a few bits and bobs that need tightened such as the doors not locking at times. When you do email them they respond quite quickly and help out- especially Joe who is absolutely a great to talk to! I’ve been able to make memories thanks to events hosted by Fraser and I will be staying next year!
I choose to move into Fraser Studios in October of 2019 (after the semester had already started) due to issues with my landlord. When I initially emailed Fraser Studios the team were a fantastic help, replying quickly and answering all of my questions (there were a lot of them!). They also understood that Fraser Studios wasn't my only option, so held a space for me for a few days while I evaluated other options. Eventually I decided on Fraser Studios, after a fantastic tour from Phil, who was ever patient with me during the whole process. The team at Fraser Studios are friendly, kind, understanding and always willing to do a little extra to help you when you need it. They plan fantastic events (such as the get to know you night) and do extra little things that just make you smile (having scottish themed snacks at the desk for Robert Burns Night). If you are looking for a home, where the people who look after the building see you more as just tennants, choose Fraser Studios.
Covid-19: During the COVID-19 outbreak, Fraser Studios have made a special effort to keep those of us still living here informed of the current situation. We have recieved regular emails of what is going on. We recieved a small tote bag which included items such as a roll of toilet paper. These little things have really helped during this time.
Has been nothing but an excellent experience living at Fraser studios. Friendly staff that are happy to chat or help in anyway that they can. Are very accommodating regarding rent payments to line up with student loan and SAAS. 5/5!
Covid-19: They have been supportive for people who have left as well as those that remained. Have provided support bags with essentials for everyone which was a nice surprise.
Living here has been great, its no more expensive than living in a flat but there's the added bonus of dedicated study spaces and common areas like a cinema room. The staff are also super lovely and always make time to have a chat with you.
Covid-19: There have been emails from staff checking on students staying in the building as well as a partial rent refund for those who were forced/ able to return home.
Staff are lovely, clean building and common areas are nice.
Covid-19: Staff have been very helpful, were given a bag with items like toilet roll etc to help us.
Great place to live - quick access to the city centre and not too far from the university of Aberdeen. Social spaces are fantastic and are regularly cleaned.
Covid-19: Set up social distancing measures with in the building such as closing the social areas as well as sticking up poster with useful information around.
One the biggest reasons I chose this place was the staff. They are really friendly and help solve any issues quickly.
Covid-19: They restricted access to communal spaces, and provide further help to those that have been affected by the virus.
One of the biggest reasons, I chose this place over the other ones are for its staffs. They’re all friendly and help you resolve any issues quickly.
Covid-19: They’ve restricted access to common spaces, and provide extra help to those that might be affected with the virus.
Honestly, it is my home away from home. First and foremost, it's only 13 minutes walk from the University of Aberdeen. Second, the team is extremely friendly and ready to help at any time. If you have any problem in your room, it will be sorted as soon as possible. The studio is spacious and perfect for a student. Also, it is a very luxury student experience if you fancy living in a contemporary establishment. It occupies a unique location. It is only a few minutes walk from everything you need; 5 minutes walk from Lidl and coop where you can do your grocery. Personally, my favourite part is that it's only around 7 minutes walk from PureGym. Fraser Studios is literally across the street from the major bus stops where you can take the bus from/to any destination, and most importantly the jet bus from/to the airport, in this case, you won’t need to carry your luggage for distances to catch the bus. Finally, security is guaranteed, all doors and gates work through key fobs.
Covid-19: Common areas will now be closed to help and support social distancing, and one person at a time in the laundry room, no guests are allowed in, and though the reception hours were reduced, the team is very responsive to emails and can contact them for any maintenance or issue at any time.
The accommodation team is helpful and friendly. Philip has always been there when i needed him and he never let me down. He has also helped me with all my problems.
Covid-19: They have been trying there best to keep us safe and they have been working hard to keep the place safe
The accommodation team have been helpful and friendly. Philip is friendly and helpful a-lot to me and he is always here to help me with my problems.
Covid-19: The accommodation team have been helpful alot and they are working hard to keep me safe as well as the place is always clean
Much better value than other student accommodations in the city, friendly staff, fantastic social space, good rooms with options for academic term stays
Covid-19: Limited office hours and weekly updates, as well as support via email. Social spaces have been closed to reduce potential spread
Top class staff. Great location. Brilliant rooms. Very warm.
Covid-19: Ideal set up to cope with covid-19
I have loved living in Fraser Studios over the last year. It’s a very friendly and relaxed place to live with only a 10 minute walk into Aberdeen Uni campus. My room was spacious with everything I needed, tonnes of storage space and I was able to make it really homely! The facilities in Fraser Studios are also really great, with Washers and Dryers on sight to communal areas with table tennis and a movie room. There are also quite a few study areas too which are great. The staff are very lovely, always there for a chat and are always happy to help with any issue you may have!
Covid-19: The accommodation have been great, they offered a refund for the rest of duration of the contract. They also have been into the rooms every week to check that there are no issues whilst residents are not in the rooms.
I've lived in FS for two years - and it has been excellent accommodation. The property staff are all lovely and ready to chat at all points of the day. The rooms are a gorgeous wee space - with plenty of shelving and storage space. It initially seems quite expensive but when I booked my room, I found it to be the cheapest on the market for what was offered and you're entitled to free gym membership at ASV! There are plenty of social rooms to hang out with other people too - although I think I would have liked a few more social events to include everyone in the building (perhaps Covid-19 impacted that ability?). I would really recommend living here - and it isn't far to walk at all for Aberdeen Uni or the College (albeit there is a slight hill).
Covid-19: They were relatively consistent with their emails and updates on the situation, so that was incredible helpful. I just wish there had been more opportunities for reimbursement or cash back on our rent considering that half the amenities were out of service and so we were not having the full experience of what was paid for. But I suppose that's less their fault than the overarching company and they did their best where they could!
