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 am really happy with the place, especially the cosy rooms and the shared kitchen experience. I am personally satisfied with the cleaning, and I think staff members are very welcoming and helpful.
No independence, im an adult who is being watched 24/7 random people knocking on my door, being told off and the fire alarm goes of constantly. The cleaners are amazing and doing there jobs yet it feels overwhelming when they are always around in our flats. Student accommodation is the worst idea- the rent is ridiculously expensive for what it is (8 people sharing 1 s***** blocked toilet) and the constant emails, reminders, meetings, deadlines is boring, overwhelming, depressing and makes it hard to live there. We are adults and are meant to be treated as such.
one of the literal worst experiences of my entire life. i don’t think i’ve ever been this miserable for as long as i can remember. the place is old, impossible to get to anywhere else you’d need to be in first year. like almost everything else in bristol, the transport to and from uni to here is absolutely awful. the accom itself is antisocial, quiet and dead. The whole building literally just has a horrible smell. this place absolutely ruined first year for me, the amount of times i wanted to drop out based on how unhappy i was living here is insane. choose literally anywhere else if you can.
I absolutely loved living in Northwell. Gloucester road was super vibrant and full of quirky shops. It was also super close to uni compared to many other accommodations. The walk was 10-15 minutes at max. Northwell is fairly small compared to other accommodations but I was really social. I made loads of really close friends through Northwell, many who I'm living with second year. I had a larger flat so we had a cleaner come twice a week (which was provided and paid for under the contract i.e. no extra fees) which meant the social areas of the flat were always reasonably clean (smaller flats had them come once a week). Don't get me wrong, there was nothing exceedingly special about Northwell (it is uni accom after all), the beds were somehow smaller than a single and there is no elevator so hauling washing up three flights of stairs was always fun, but for being one of the cheaper accommodations it really had its charm and I would 100% recommend.
Ignore other reviews, northwell can be very social if you put the effort in, made some of my best friends here. The actual building isn’t beautiful but for the price it’s very decent and most rooms are nice and fairly big. Plus walking distance to the majority of big clubs !
Northwell is the most underrated accommodation at Bristol. 10/10 would recommend. You don’t want to be up in boring stoke bishop or Clifton with the other halls, you wanna be where Northwell is in the heart of the Gloucester Road near town. Flat 12 is the best
The worst halls I have ever seen. The building stinks of smoke and dirt, the more floors you go up the stronger the smell. Our room was on the top floor and had absolutely no redeeming factors to support the list of things that were wrong. The bed base is smaller than the mattress, and so the mattress overhangs and is unstable. The armchair is filthy and the desk chair made of is of old blue plastic. There is a leak coming from the skylight which will go directly onto the bed if it rains. The carpet and walls are stained and dirty. The room is tiny and does not in any way seem as though it should be a bedroom in the first place. There is no window.
Genuinely the worst halls, in such a bad location and fairly anti social
Old and decrepit, walls and carpets are rancid. Cleaners try and charge you for having a plate out. Social life is okay but lots of weirdos, one girl has such bad b.o. her whole flat stinks. RIP.
Most exciting area of Bristol where all the decent clubs are (and in close proximity to the Grecian which your wallet will come to hate). Rooms good sized and have sinks. Common room isn't great and the flats don't have sofa-ed living spaces which would be nice. Very cheap.
My friend recommend Northwell because of the distance from the university (not at all on campus but still a reasonable walk) and the fact it's just down the road from Stokes Croft, a cultural hub. I'm incredibly happy with my choice. Common room is small but pre-drinks and socialising normally happens in someone's kitchen. Some rooms don't have a window but have a skylight instead - £10/week is knocked off rent for these. The rent in general is very reasonable and Northwell is so much better than University Hall, which is the same price. The location means that supermarkets are close so you don't have to fork out at the campus (Stoke Bishop) shop on alcohol and food. Also in Stoke Bishop there are security checks at the bus stop so you can't take any drinks on, even water which is really annoying. All in all Northwell House is a great halls and everyone makes friends with everyone, because they all have basically the same mentality.
Please don't apply here, boring social life, bad furnishing and it honestly ruined my first year of university
Really cool area, 15 minute walk to uni and great people!
Its s*** don't apply to live her ever
Out of the way of all the other halls. Gives you more of an experience of the City and the fantastic culture around Gloucester Rd and Stokes Croft. No-one will have heard of it but its a great place to live. Only one common room but people seem to work round it and its pretty social regardless. If you'd miss a student bar then don't bother with here. If you prefer the more out of the way cultured places this one is for you!
