In a great location, right next to university and Oxford Road. They offer the chance to take part in events in the building that the staff arrange and there's always help available at the Reception if you have any questions. Overall very happy with my stay so far.

Hi there!
Thank you for your question.
Due to the height of our buildings, the windows do not open as normal however. we do have a air conditioning unit in every room which allows you to control the temperature. This means you can be cool when it's hot, and warm when it's cold!
Hope this helps, please let us know if you have any further questions.

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.

Hi, Thank you for your fantastic comments and we're glad your enjoying living with us at Bridgewater Heights. Kieren and The Bridgewater Heights Team
The receptionists are always nice. I live in the first floor so my only gripe is that it’s very noisy on weekends. Other than that, it’s quite close to a few convenience stores so it’s nice. It’s also in the middle between the shopping centre and university

Really enjoy the year live here at Bridgewater Heights Manchester. Especially the helpful, nice, and welcoming reception. I like Dexter and Conner most who is always help me when I need help. Good location as well.
Fantastic to hear! Rest assured, I’ll make sure to pass this on to Connor.
I recently stayed at Bridge Water Height and had a wonderful experience, thanks in large part to the exceptional service provided by Dexter at the reception. From the moment I arrived, Dexter made me feel incredibly welcome with his warm and friendly demeanor. His efficiency in handling my check-in and any inquiries I had was remarkable, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. What truly set Dexter apart was his ability to connect with guests from diverse backgrounds, including many of us from China. He went out of his way to ensure that all our needs were met, showing a genuine interest in making our stay as comfortable as possible. His proficient and enthusiastic approach to his work did not go unnoticed, and it significantly enhanced our overall experience at the apartment. It’s not every day that you encounter someone as dedicated and skilled in guest relations as Dexter. His professionalism and kindness are a true asset to Bridge Water Height.
Thank you so much for this amazing comment. Unfortunately, Dexter is no longer with us, but we have a few new team members who are just as kind and welcoming. Tamas
Dexter is very nice and responsible！

Living in your apartment is very convenient，and what impress me most is your staff team . I still remember Dexter，he is a good stuff，for he has a good relationship with Chinese students because of his warm heart. He is so helpful and brings me a good living experience in bwh.
Thank you so much for taking time to write this nice comment. Unfortunately, Dexter is no longer with us, but we have a few new team members who are just as nice and helpful as Dexter used to be.

The overall living experience in Bridgewater Heights in the past six months is good. In particular, Patrick, the reception staff was very responsible and provided me with a lot of help. But the wifi network and the elevator in the apartment are always broken, which bothers me a little.

Some of the old facilities cannot be fixed for the normal use for example the light under the mirror. Also, several leeks cannot be fully resolved.

the location of Bridgewater heights is good, but it should be more maintenance. The hot water and internet have a worse performance than other buildings.

It's always a pleasure to hear our students have appreciated the space we can offer, and are always looking to hold events and maximise our potential - so thank you for the kind words! David
It is really inconvenient for picking up parcels, it is only limited to after 6 p.m. during summer time. Terrible for online shopping enthusiast! In addition, WiFi sometimes performs poorly.

Once again, thank you very much for your honest feedback, and we hope the rest of your stay was a very pleasant one! David
The location is perfect, some of the front desk staff are really nice, the Irish lady with the glasses is superb ! However, a few things I didn't like about LH is that it isn't too diverse, I am an international student myself and couldn't really get the chance to experience the British College life because everyone in the building spoke my language... The lifts are really slow so it takes absolutely forever to wait. The windows are also really dirty so despite the view you get at LH is really great, you can still see the dust on the windows... But overall I would give it a 3/5.
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to review our site, Bridgewater Heights. Please know we appreciate all feedback given to us, and thank you for your honest words. Firstly, I am very happy to hear that you had a good experience with one of our team members. We work very hard to ensure our service is exceptional at every turn! Secondly, I'm sorry to hear that you did not enjoy living within Bridgewater for the reaonss stated; we are looking to hold more events on site to help bring a bit of everybody's culture to our building, and this includes some field trips to local events in Mancester for a bit of that Manchester charm! I'm sorry to hear the windows were not very clean and the lifts also affected your experience, this can be fed back to our facilities team for improvements. Thank you again for your honest feedback! David
It’s a good location but not worth the money. For the amount you pay you would at least expect things to be fixed in a week if broken like they state. Doesn’t happen. Lifts constantly break with no indication of fixing. Staff are unhelpful and frankly couldn’t give less of a care unless you publically say something online.
Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to review our site, Bridgewater Heights. We really appreciate your honest feedback, and I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay with us due to the issues mentioned. Our lifts are serviced monthly but I appreciate unforeseen events can cause disruption to our services, and we work hard with our facilities team to resolve these disruptions as quickly as possible. I'm sorry that this occurred during your stay and affected your experience here. The student experience team work hard to ensure all of our residents are cared for and their concerns are heard and responded to in a timely and proper manner. I'm very sorry that you have not had this experience during your stay, and this will be reflected back to the team so we can improve on our services and ensure that going forward, all of our residents are properly looked after. Thank you again for your honest feedback, and we wish you good luck in the future. David
