Regents Court Student Roost is conveniently located close to the university, train and bus stations, and the city center, making commuting and access to amenities easy. The staff is helpful and responsive, creating a supportive living environment. Additionally, it's easy to meet other students from the university, fostering a sense of community. However, the common room is quite small, which can be a downside for those looking to socialize or relax in a more spacious setting.

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.

Staff are amazing, I always felt safe and comfortable. Beautiful kitchens! Bathrooms could use a renovation. Bedrooms are fine, although the furniture is a bit lackluster - lots of storage space though despite thr smallish rooms (would rather if the rooms were a tiny bit bigger but its managable) Would also be nice if equipment e.g. toaster, kettle, toilrt brush etc. were added. Maintenence issues resolved quickly. A bit of a trekk to University of Leicester (20 mins to main campus) but right next to town and the station

Paige is amazing, very helpful.
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are so pleased you've found Paige to be so helpful. Many thanks - Student Roost
Paige is just awesome and ever ready to offer assistance and information. Warm, kind, attentive and has a very diplomatic way of saying No when the request is against company policy. On a broader scale, every other staff I’ve interacted with at the reception (Jenna, Cath) had great positive vibes even when visibly busy with other admin tasks
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It’s great to know you’ve had such a positive experience with our team members. We really appreciate your wonderful feedback on the hard work they put in for our residents. Many thanks – Student Roost

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're so pleased you've enjoyed living with us and we really appreciate the wonderful feedback on our team members! Many thanks - Student Roost
i would like to request for a table tennis if possible, there is not a way to spend a time here. If i am bored at least there needs to be a thing to do to feel better. I hope you will respond to my request. actually not only mine request probably most of the resident here wants the same. Thank you!!

Your property team would be more than happy to discuss your request with you, so please don't hesitate to take your suggestion directly to them. Many thanks - Student Roost.
The place is good value for money, however there were a lot of problems with my roommates but reception was lovely, Cat especially was so helpful and understanding and they helped me solve most of my issues and offered me a room change.
Hi, thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We're pleased you've had a positive experience with Student Roost, our team work hard to help our residents every way they can.
It was a good experience staying here for one year. I feel like it would be better that you can give toiletries and mop to maintain the flat and common area clean as it is a shared accomodation.
Hi! Thanks for taking time to leave a review, we're happy you enjoyed your time with us at Student Roost Regents Court. We do also offer a professional cleaning service on request for a small additional fee. If you have any other feedback for us, please don't hestitate to get in touch!
It is my great experience. Team is supportive and helpful. Safety and security is more important and I can say that they do not compromise in it. Thank you!
Hi, thanks for leaving us a review! We're glad that you had a positive experience with Student Roost, if you have any other feedback please feel free to get in touch with the team!
I moved here in September 2019, and the accommodation has massively gotten better since then. The staff are amazing, they're caring and friendly, and if you have something you need fixing in your flat, they'll see to it that it gets fixed as soon as possible. Jane (day staff) pretty much runs the place and she is 100% the person to go to for any needs of the flat, she will make sure that everything gets done. The staff here made things so much easier for me whilst living at Regents.
It's great to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Regents Court! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review.
Plumbing is a disaster with faeces frequently returning to the toilet after flushing. Apart from that it’s okay.
Thank you for your feeback,we are sorry that your roost isn’t 100% what you’d expect it to be.
Our block was forced to move into a different block at the start of march. For me, as a final year student, this was very disruptive to my studies as I had a lot of coursework due in around then. It was clear that once the student roost had got my money, they were more concerned with getting tenants for the next year than with the experience of their current tenants.
Thank you for providing this feedback as we have completed a thorough refurb of Regents Court, we thought our residents would appreciate benefitting from the new flats as quickly as possible for no extra charge. Being in a new, bright flat will enhance your experience we are sure but if you still have concerns, please come to reception and we can chat about how else we can help you have a more pleasant stay with us.
Really stylish rooms, really friendly staff and really close to the town centre.
It's great to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Regents Court! Thank you for taking the time to write us a review.
Maintenance didn’t fix the issues risen when i first moved. Reception staff do not reply to email queries. I am unfairly paying more than my flatmates. Building old and dingy. Terrible.
Student Roost Leicester values feedback from it's tenants, we are sorry that your roost isn’t 100% what you’d expect it to be. We have been going through a change of caretaking staff. If you are still experiencing maintenance issues, then please report them to the reception team or send us an email and we get theses resolved as quickly as we can!
Horrible stay, would not recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review, we are sorry that your roost wasn’t 100% what you’d expect it to be. We are working very hard making changes to the building with the refurb along with staff changes to ensure you have a pleasant stay with us going forward.
Upon viewing flat, found it to be in a dire state but went and ended up booking a room. Upon moving in, there were issues with the flat which i wrote down and gave to reception team. While some issues were dealt with, others were left with the reasoning 'it will be done in the refurbishment'. that has only started in the last few weeks and it turns out my block is near end of the list so it's not likely it will be done before my tenancy ends. Also, I have found my room to be quite small and even enquired about moving to a bigger room however got told that there weren't any bigger ones available after it got checked. Moving on, I have discovered that the area where Regent's Court is based is a hot spot for people to smoke weed/cannabis, even 2 of my flatmates as well. I have raised concerns to reception however there's not much they can do. If anything, this particular issue needs to be raised with the Police and the Council. It will help make students and other residents feel safer.
Thank you for your feeback,we are sorry that your roost isn’t 100% what you’d expect it to be. If you could contact the on site team via email regarding the issues you have mentioned we can investigate this further for you.
The value for money is decent considering the usual prices in Leicester as well as the fact that it's pretty central. However, the management tend to take long to deal with maintenance issues though the office staff are really nice and usually try to help as much as they can. You can tell that a lot of the features in the flat are old/low quality. It's pretty difficult to keep the kitchen looking clean for example because it's just quite grotty. The social spaces are at another accommodation location about a 10-15 minute walk from here, which is kinda pointless as it's quite inconvenient to have to go far to use the gym or social spaces, especially if you don't know anyone there in the first place. Overall, the best thing about this place is its value for money, and I guess if you live here with friends it won't be so bad regarding socialising, but it's by far not the best accommodation I've lived in in my 4 years of being a student.
Thank you for providing this feedback, we are sorry that your roost isn’t 100% what you’d expect it to be. We are working very hard making changes to the building with the refurb along with staff changes to ensure you have a pleasant stay with us going forward. If you do have any suggestions for events you would like to see please speak to a member of the team.
I will be rebooking for next year!
Thank you, we look forward to seeing you next year.
Glad I chosen to stay here last year
