Most helpful review

I've had the best three years staying at Iconinc. Literally couldn't ask for anything more. Loved my little studio and all of the communal areas!! The sauna saved me when I was writing my diss I can't lie. Everyone on the desk is so nice and they love a good chat. Free food at events nearly every week, and THE. BEST. free breakfast every single day. Genuinely considered doing a masters just so I could stay for another year. Really gonna miss this place :')

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 loved staying at the Ascent during university! The staff are really friendly, helpful and knowledgable. The building is always clean and there are great social areas! The building is also walking distance to university which made it easier to explore the city.

I’ve been living at the iconinc for 9 months now, and it’s been one most amazing experiences during this first year in university. It helped me adapt quicker in this new country, it helped me get to know people and consider a new place my home. The amazing staff just makes the whole experience better and easier.

Iconic is one of the best student apartments. They've got many facilities like free sauna, library, meeting room, public kitchen and gym. And they offer a daily free breakfast bar. They also hold lots of events to bring everybody together. But, there is a minor problem – if you're living on the lower floors, you might catch some noise when metro passing through.

The room is nice and spacious, although that is reflected in the price you pay. Everything works except the television is a bit temperamental. The bed is very comfortable. The demister pad for the mirror in the bathroom is great and adds a touch of luxury. Social spaces can be booked but I was not made aware of this at the start of my tenancy and also isn't mentioned in any of the welcome documents. The sauna is an amazing amenity and the complementary breakfast is fantastic. Unfortunately, the laundry is very expensive £3.30 a wash and £2.00 for drying. The doors to the apartment slam loudly and cabinets and closet doors could have used soft closing mechanisms as these can be disruptive at night if your neighbour is a night owl. There are various social activities throughout the year. Personally, I'd rather pay less for the room then have the social activities. Overall, the place is great but there are some things which prevent me from giving it a 10/10.

The apartment is amazing! It is vary spacious and you have a lot of storage place, a large desk (large enough to put a couple computers and a printer. The bed is very comfortable. Best part, you have your own bathroom and kitchen, and the bathroom is spacious. On the other hand, the staff is really friendly, responsive and supportive and they can help you with anything you need.

The rooms are fantastic and spacious. They occasionally gather a bit of dust but that’s super easy to clean up! There is a great bit of kitchen space that makes cooking food really easy. The communal spaces are very simple and warm aesthetically and are designed in a way that makes communication with fellow residents easy. The staff are super polite and social and keep the place very well stocked - especially in the mornings during the Free Breakfast time. The residents all meet you with smiles, but I often feel a language barrier that has made it difficult for me to make friends in the building.

I really love this accommodation because it is so clean and well-designed. There are also many activities to celebrate festivals from all over the world, letting me feel the holiday atmosphere in a foreign country. The public facilities of the apartment are very functional. It is the best accommodation in Liverpool, I think.

The weekly events and social clubs are excellent and have helped me meet so many new people and made lots of new friends. I would recommend The Ascent to anyone looking for top quality accommodation in Liverpool, having everything under one roof really did help so much towards my studies in first year also.

I absolutely loved my stay at this apartment! It’s quirky yet very homely which I feel is down to the amazing team and in particular the manager, Lucy, who is always on hand to help or just to cheer you up with a chat. She really helped make my transition from home to student life and living in halls so much easier. Thank you!

I have lived here for 3years . Facilities are brilliant. Location is perfect and the staff look after you. The breakfast has something for everyone and is a god send when you are in a rush of a morning. Highly recommend. The reception staff is super helpful and always available to try to satisfy our requests, especially Pete!

Iconinc is great. Facilities and staff are 10/10. Social events are always fun and a great way to meet new people. Cleaners do a fantastic job. Lucy has a great team. Beth the team leader is sound. Libbie jacob and becs all go the extra mile but Pete is our favourite he has been here the longest and he feels like family. Would recommend The Ascent to anybody who is looking to move to Liverpool for university especially if you want luxury and something a bit different.

Lived here for 3 years and I honestly can't recommend a better accommodation. This accommodation managed to uphold great studying facilities as well as social events. More importantly, the hospitality has been 10/10 for the entirety of the three years, especially Pete who has been here for two years and the new manager Lucy.

IconInc has been a great place to stay, I only moved in a couple of weeks ago I have met loads of new friends and all the events make it so easy to interact with the other residents. I love the facilities we have especially the gym and the breakfast every day. The reception staff are always helpful and have a laugh with us all. I would definitely recommend IconInc to anyone looking for somewhere to stay for Uni as there is a great social feel but also loads of space to study and work

I looked around a couple of student accommodations around Liverpool in which none came close to IconInc. What first struck me was the amazingly pleasant staff, and the cleanliness of the building. With fantastic features throughout the building such as a gym, large communal areas in which we are able to work and meet other students, cinema room, library and many more. Not only a fantastic place to live, but a fantastic place to work. I would definitely recommend IconInc, whether it be for a masters degree student or first year student. Brilliant value for money!

Fantastic standards - I moved in to The Ascent 7 days ago and I already feel super settled in Liverpool. A sense of community is really important to me, and the standout feature of this accommodation is the management team, they understand the importance of bringing the housemates together and actively put in effort in to make sure the residents here are happy, comfortable and getting involved with activates if they want to. Other perks include: - Very high level of hygiene. - Extensive Breakfast 7 days a week (pastries, fruit, cereal, juice, homemade bread and preserves. - 24/7 coffee machine. - Cinema Room. - Well equipped gym. - City Centre Location. - Cheap supermarkets (Lidl & Aldi) nearby. - 3 Universities in close proximity. - I could go on!

I have lived at The Ascent in Liverpool for 2 years. After my first year here at Iconinc, I loved it so much that I renewed. From the moment I arrived here, I was made to feel so welcome. The facilities in the building are amazing. There is a sauna and steam room, gym, music room, lounge, games room, cinema and lots more. The staff are there 24 hours a day and really look after you. The building is completely safe and a great place to study but also so much fun with regular complimentary events. The free breakfast is a great addition too.

The Ascent, Iconinc is in my eyes, a very welcoming and lavish place to stay, the facilities are fantastic, with everything a student could possibly want. The student environment is very welcoming and friendly. The main thing that makes The Ascent stand out is the outstanding service the staff provide, who throughout my tenancy I have gotten to know very well and feel at home around. The small things add up that they do such as, wake up calls, always having a friendly face, saving a croissant from breakfast, ordering your taxi and the list goes on. Pete was the member of staff to show me around at my viewing and he left a very good impression and throughout my tenancy he has gone above and beyond in his politeness and how he treats everyone. Lucy, Tom, Elliot, Bailey and Jenny also are fantastic members of staff who treat you very well. My only complaint is the price of the rent and the extortionate increases for next year (£2500 increase) which needs to be addressed.

During the first month I lived here, the Windows of my house were not strictly closed, so I could clearly hear the sound of traffic on the road. The window was not repaired the next month. After the repairs, the window never opened. It's not tight and it won't open. I haven't had a good rest for a long time.
