403 is situated perfectly between both the university and town so is easily convenient to travel to either. There is also many bus stops very close by as well that make it easy to go all across Aberdeen. 403 also has a dishwasher and washing machine, which helps save cost as you don’t have to spend a fortune spending money on laundry machines. Both maintenance and the reception resolve issues quickly and efficiently and are very friendly about it. The 403 rooms are also very spacious and a good price for how big the flats are. Couldn’t recommend it any more!

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.

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are thrilled to hear you love living with us and that you have found the team so helpful and friendly. We love our spacious rooms at 403 and the added bonus of the free laundry services so we are glad to hear you are enjoying them too! Many thanks, Karen, Accommodation Manager
Good value for money as the flats themselves are very decent for what you pay. However there are no communal spaces whatsoever so it’s hard to meet people from other flats. Also, the management staff are very unhelpful and slow to respond to issues in the flat. Maintenance is good but there are a lot of things that need attending to so sometimes feels like you’re living on a construction site. Overall, would recommend if management team were more helpful however there are other places that have better social spaces etc for the same price.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are so disappointed to hear that you have had to wait for respoinses from our team, we pride ourselves in responding to issues within 48 hours. We would love to have the chance to rectifiy any issues with you so please email us on aberdeen@mezzino.co.uk with more details of how we can improve your stay with us. We have not had any major works done at 403 apart from the fire door project contained within flats, all other maintenance is reactive to a students request. Many thanks, Karen, Accommodation Manager.
One of the best accommodations in the city in terms of location and value for money, especially for Aberdeen university students. Even though we can rent out the trinity court space, it is a shame there is a lack of social spaces at 403 king street. Aside from that I have nothing but positive things to say about 403 king street.
Thank you so much for your review of our 403 King Street property. We are so pleased to hear you feel its good value for money and you love the location. We recognise your desire for more social spaces and we will pass this feedback onto the owners. Many thanks, Karen, Accommodation Manager
Great place with excellent staff that are always super helpful! Wish I had spent more time here.
Many thanks for your review of our 403 property. So fanatstic to hear you have had such a good time with us. As a team we wish you all the best with your future plans and wish you could have spent more time in Aberdeen with us too. Kind Regards, Karen, Accommodation Manager
This is a great place to live if you would prefer the feel of a block of flats rather than student halls! Perfect for 2nd year and up.
We are so happy you have been enjoying your time at our 403 property. We are thrilled to hear you feel like it is a home-away-from-home with lovely flats in a great location near to the Univeristy of Aberdeen. Many Thanks. Karen, Accommodation Manager
I will not recommend this accommodation after the change of the management team. Maintenance guys and other contractors came into your house without any earlier notice, and they are not wearing mask under covid situation. No cleaning services for over half a year.
We are really sorry to hear that you have had issues while staying in our 403 accommodation. We have taken our COVID protocols seriously and are dishearted to hear that you have not experienced the level of service we have strived to provide. We do not have records of complaints or any issues raised in this regard, please can you contact us on karen@mezzino.co.uk so we can investigate and resolve this. Kind Regards, Karen
Company has been very accommodating for all my needs. They have been organised and have made sure the block has been safe for us to stay in during lockdown.
Thank you for taking the time to review your experience at 403 King Street, we really appreciate your comments. We hope that after the restrictions due to pandemic ease we can provide our tenants with more social experiences.
After having stayed at Powis Place for 2 years, I decided to move property and come here. This place is amazing, not even comparable to Powis, very good value for money, it does feel like your own flat and the property team is so lovely. I strongly recommend people to stay here over any other private accommodations!
Thank you so much for your kind comments, we really appreciate them and will share them with the team!
My experience at 403 King street has been great - any minor issues with maintenance have been resolved extremely quickly and the facilities are excellent. The flat is of a very high standard and the location is perfect for both the University of Aberdeen and the city centre.
Thank you for you feedback we are glad you are enjoying your time in 403.
The Wifi is always not working and the connection is bad even when it works. It caused serious problems especially in current situation that all university learning is online. I really hope that it could be fixed.
We are sorry to hear you are having issues with the WIFI. This is something we have identified and are working towards having it completely upgraded. If you want to discuss this further you can email me on karen@mezzino.co.uk.
Location is good but that's all the positive there is about this building, the staff are unhelpful as there is no one available on site for issues. There is no social space so how are you supposed to meet people?? The hallways/outside is never cleaned there is always rubbish everywhere. The wifi is terribly slow, would never stay here again, management are useless they only offer free pens to try to resolve issues
Really high prices for the value given, definitely will not be staying here again, service can be bad at times too
Very homely and helpful experience
