The first time I walked in, I was a bit nervous, not knowing anyone, but that quickly changed. There was something about the energy there that made it easy to relax and jump into conversations. One night, I joined this group event, and we had to solve a puzzle together. None of us really knew each other, but by the end, we were laughing, throwing out random ideas, and just having a good time figuring it all out. It was fun seeing how fast we all clicked. But it wasn’t always noisy and full of events. There were times I’d just find a quiet corner with a book or my laptop, and the soft hum of people chatting in the background was kind of soothing. Ramsay Hall turned into more than just a building for me—it felt like a place where I could chill, meet new people, and feel connected.

It is a great hall for socialising but the rooms are very old and most of the furniture is broken.

My window jammed a couple of days into my stay. It took more than a week after notifying the reception for them to send a maintenance team to check it. It took another week for maintenance to refer it to a contractor. It’s been more than a month and the issue still hasn’t been resolved :(

People defacated in the showers regularly. If it wasn't for that it would have been a solid 7/10.

Great location, but poor management. Always block the door with something heavy, or you would have no privacy as the managers would open your door with a key, without knocking on the door. This had happened to me multiple times.

I stayed in Ramsay Hall for a UCL Summer School. As the accommodation was free, I cannot really comment about the rent. Although the accommodation felt old and tired, it was clean and comfortable enough. The bathrooms were alright; for me, the worst thing about the bathroom was the dirty and sometimes overflowing toilets. Many of my peers also disliked the push-buttons to operate the showers. Despite this, I actually had fun in Ramsay Hall. Its central location was useful and the social life was excellent. I became really good friends with most of the people that I shared halls with. However, Ramsay Hall has one main downfall: food. If you have an allergy, then I would advise you to steer clear. I am lactose intolerant and they continually presented me with meals that I could not eat. I did eat some food, though; if you're looking for edible food, Ramsay Hall isn't the place. Overall, Ramsay Hall has great social life, but the food is rubbish. Think carefully before you stay there.

Managing to be simultaneously a party hall yet awkwardly shy, Ramsay Hall is about as London as you can get. It's a lot of money for what you get but I do appreciate the location- never in my life will I manage to live this central again.

Very social but for what it is rent is extortionate. Perfect location but it really is a prison
