Enso is an amazing accommodation to stay at. From the super friendly reception staff and team in general, to the super spacious and accommodating rooms, to the super vibey and wholesome social spaces for everyone to enjoy. You simply can't not find places to relax and lovely staff members to have a chat with. Room expectation was exactly as pictured on the website which is highly appreciated. Everything they offered I indeed got and did not get a raw deal. Amazing value for money.

Enso is the best student accommodation in Colchester, the staff on site are incredible, they are always up for a chat and a laugh and will never fail to put a smile on my face. Eren is incredible for any sale queries including rebooking for next year. Nicola & Holly are great management, the place is always ran to a high standard and all the students can see what an incredible team they are. The site is manned 24/7 too so if you’re locked out at night no stress as security can help. They put on great events and the events they do vary so there is something for everyone. The common areas are always really clean and smell lovely, the maintenance guy is brilliant, any issues he fixes them right away and he’s great to have a laugh with too. The rooms are spacious, bright and modern. There is nothing more you would need. If you’re looking for accommodation in Colchester, Enso is definitely the place to go!

In a great location just a few minutes from Tesco and the university is accessible by walking or bus close by. The receptionist are super helpful and friendly and there is someone there everyday which is really rare for an accommodation. They also have good events for students as someone who has moved far away from home which has helped with socialising with other students.
Thank you for your review. We are very glad to hear you are enjoying your stay at Enso. We will be holding more events in the near futuure and look forward to seeing you there. Thank you Nicola, Holly, Eren & the enso team
I am a person who likes to have everything accessible from my accommodation and Enso was best suited for me. It’s brand new, it has car parking facility, best staffs who are friendly and kind, and the property is near to Tesco, rail station and food joint. It’s the perfect place one would prefer to have a fabulous stay in Colchester.
Thank you for your review. We are very pleased that you are enjoying your stay and the facilities we have available at Enso. Thank you Nicola, Hoolly, Eren & the enso team
Perfect place for students. The staffs here are so friendly and welcoming, it always feels like home away from home. And the property is so secure and trustworthy and it’s brand new. It’s really hard to find a best student accommodation in Colchester and I’m so happy that I found Enso which provides the best I needed. One more best aspect of this property is its near to the rail station and it takes just 40 minutes to reach central London. If you are looking for a great property with all the above criteria then Enso is the apt one for you.
Thank you for your review. We are very pleased you feel safe and secure whilst at Enso and that you are enjoying your time here. Thank you Nicola, Holly, Eren & the enso team

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Enso Student Accommodation, and I cannot express enough how delightful my experience was. Enso has truly created a haven for students, providing not only a comfortable living space but also fostering a warm and family-like environment. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with a sense of belonging.

Their friendly smiles and willingness to assist with any concerns create a welcoming atmosphere that is both refreshing and reassuring.
