Good accommodation in a very good location at the centre of Bristol city centre. The social spaces are great for unwinding, they have events happening throughout the year and the room services are great.

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.

It was a very wholesome and nice experience overall. But it's a bit expensive. Management is good. Social spaces are fun, and you can play games as well (Table Tennis, 8 Ball Pool, PS5 etc.). 20-25 mins to University of Bristol, but very close to the city center. Vacuum cleaner should be for each flat or floor. Social events happen more often at the start of the year, like in the first quarter, but after that they don't do much social events. Nobody else comes to clean your kitchen regularly, which is the case in some other accommodations.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback! We're so glad to hear that you had an enjoyable experience, and that you liked our social spaces and amenities. We appreciate your suggestions regarding the vacuum cleaner and social events—we’re always looking for ways to improve and will take your input into consideration. We appreciate your perspective on kitchen cleaning, this is a service that we have now implemented now throughout the property, and bedroom cleaning has also been added. Thank you again for your review, and we hope to continue making your stay a great one!

We always strive to maintain transparency and fairness in our policies, and we appreciate your perspective. If you'd like to discuss any concerns further, please feel free to reach out—we're always happy to help!
I've had a very lovely stay here, the staff here have been very friendly and the events have been fun.
Staff are always chatty, and quick to resolve any issues. Location is great. Perhaps more social events throughout the year would be better for integrating students new to the city. Vending machine keeps breaking which isn’t ideal.
I had a really good time here. All of the staff are so nice and kind, and the environment is tremendous!
Would strongly advise against living here. A staff member was very rude to me and even called the police on me after I tried to have 5 of my friends over (who were not causing a fuss). Apparently it’s on the contract that you are only allowed to have 3 guests over with 24 hours of prior notice which is utter nonsense and certainly not on my contract or advised anywhere. He actually refused to look at and read my contract prior to calling the police. I spoke to canvas head office the next day who apologised and are investigating the incident.
Thank you for taking the time to review Canvas Bristol and we're sorry to hear that you've had a bad experience. We take any reports of staff rudeness very seriously, please do contact us if this matter has not been resolved.
