Unite House Biography
Unite House is ideally located in the centre of Bristol and next to vibrant Park Street and O2 Academy, meaning you will never be at a loss of things to do. Park street is filled with numerous restaurants and vintage shops for you to enjoy on your off days. The University of Bristol is only a ten-minute walk away, so you can roll out of bed and be in class in no time.
After a long day of class, you can head to the ground floor and play a game of pool or ping-pong in the common room, relax on the comfortable couches in the TV area or have a picnic and play ping-pong in the courtyard. When needing to focus on your studies, you can take advantage of the communal study room and handy vending machines.
Unite House has a wide selection of rooms, ranging from non-en-suite rooms to en-suite rooms and studios. If you prefer your own space and wish to have a private bathroom and kitchen to yourself, the studio rooms are the ideal choice. Alternatively, you can share with friends and stay in an en-suite or non-suite room where you will share a kitchen and living space with flatmates.

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.

A staff of unite house - irfan haider , night shift staff helped me with my kitchen leak and was very helpful
I don’t appreciate paying the same fees as last year students when we don’t have access to the courtyard which would make the accommodation a lot more social. We also never got warned when we selected the accommodation that there would be loud construction everyday. However the staff is very friendly especially Kenny and Ifan.
Very friendly staff at arrival and during my stay, especially the receptionists Kenny and Harley.
I went to the reception over a simple small cut on my hand, the receptionist Stanley was very helpful and made sure I was alright, and checked I had enough supplies in case I was hurt again. To address the other stuff, I can't rate the social spaces too well as I don't use them often, the Internet is fantastic when it Is working, i am on an ethernet cable, but a few times a day I get a hiccup where it stops working for a minute or two at a time, but I don't know if that's my side.
Very good accommodation and it’s close to campus
The accommodation is in a good location, it is very central, and close to the university.
Erfan has helped me out a few times now and has provided excellent service
Really enjoyed living here; the non-ensuite bathroom is lovely
unite student accomodation is a nice place to stay
Been a nice experience even though i moved in recently
Lots of noise - especially between the hours of 01:00 and 03:00. The radiator does not work and the fire alarm is set off frequently (one night it went off 58 times). The stairs from park street to Unite are unsafe. The refuse chute has been blocked for the last 3 months, resulting in everyone storing bin bags in the refuse room and an unholy stench that escapes through the several doors needed to access the refuse chute. Helpful staff and centrality are the only benefits.
A great opportunity to develop further m
The location of the accommodation was perfect for a student like myself. Situated within walking distance of the university campus and various amenities, it made my daily commute a breeze. Additionally, the surrounding area had a vibrant atmosphere with plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops to explore during my free time.
Unite house is on the cheaper side of accomodation and is found in the city centre, this is good for rhe social side of uni as there is a lot of things to do but the walk to campus is up a hill or some really steep steps which makes turning up for 9ams a massive task. If youre with people who are clean the flat is good and the kitchen space is pretty big and accommodating for the flat. The cleaners come once a week and clean surfaces etc but if people have left stuff on the side or in the sink they wont clean it so being in a clean flat makes this experience better. The internet is reliable and i found that my flat made friends with the flats on the same corridor as mine which made the social experience really positive and i met loads of people who im still in contact with in my 3rd year. There is only the courtyard and one social room and one study room in unite and i found that alot of the social gatherings occured in peoples kitchens but these are pretty large so it works well.
Really good value for money and such a good location- just off park street so lovely and central but not on a very busy road. My flat was facing onto the street so we could sometimes hear a bit of noise at night (the O2 wasn’t open due to covid so I can’t comment on disruption from that). Good size kitchens and bedrooms, reception staff always lovely for collecting parcels and queries though there wouldn’t be someone on the desk at all times. Cleaners were very nice, they’d come every other week to do the kitchen & shared bathrooms. Really nice common room with space to study and relax (we weren’t allowed to use it some of the time due to covid) and mini cinema room. The best thing in unite for me was the social experience, great community feel with other flats- there are so many people in the building that it’s easy to find people you get along with and it’s easy to run into new people in the corridors/reception/common room/courtyard area. Wifi sometimes dropped out temporarily. 9/10
I am still in complete awe as to how this company can justify charging such an extortionate amount of money for something that is quite honestly a pile of s***. The rooms are small and the bathrooms are disgusting. The lighting in the rooms is a dim yellow glow so make sure you bring lamps. If you’re the sort of person that needs at least 8 hours of sleep to function, rule this accommodation out. Unite House is next door to the O2 academy and opposite 2 nightclubs, and is noisy every night. Bring earplugs! Kitchens are barely big enough for 4 people even though there are 7 in a flat. Only one stove so if someone else is cooking you will have to wait. Furniture is old and outdated and the curtains look like they were donated from a children’s hospital. Wardrobe and drawer space is extremely limited. The only positive about this accommodation is the location. I wouldn’t pay more than £110 per week for this accommodation yet they charge £156.
Good location, but everything else is average at best
Absolute s***! First two weeks of moving in involved numerous power cuts at random occasions, culminating in a f****** EVACUATION as the fire systems were down, forcing everyone to sleep on the floor in another unite accommodation! (someone's flat FLOODED whilst this was happening!) Complete lack of organisation and a total inability to inform anyone of whats going on. Facilities suck, only two washing machines on my side of the building work and they are always being used (plus is £3 per wash!), chairs in the kitchen have screws falling out of them, the flush on the toilet broke the other day, and now today they are changing the fire alarms because we have been being woken up and made to leave the building at random times throughout the past few nights to faulty alarms going off!! Sure the location is great but its not worth the money at all!
Great hall with lots to do and alot of fun!
It all depends who you live with in this hall - I was very lucky with great flatmates but I know other people have found it quite isolated because they don't get on with theirs. It's luck really.
Unite house has been one of the worst places I have ever lived. Nonstop noise from the O2 academy and the awfully designed courtyard at night and then constant noise from the building works which don't seem to ever end. They try and squeeze every penny out of you to live in their oversized toilet of a building and I hate it. Everything is broken and although maintenance is kind of quick, you'll be seeing them again tomorrow because something else will have broken. F*** this place if I'm honest and look somewhere else.
Location is fantastic and very close to uni, shops and everywhere you will spend your time. However very expensive considering the size of rooms, kitchen only cleaned once every two weeks and building work next door is very very loud and have been offered no compensation or apologies. Fines at the end of the year are also extortionate (eg £100 to re paint a wall which are easily marked by Blu tac). Not at all good value for money but very good location
Great location, makes all the other slight negatives (e.g. cost, not a great common room) worth it
