I was in Park View in 2022. It was clean and in a brilliant location for sports facilities and psychology lectures, close to corner shops, and a 10 min walk up Ricky Road to Trent House (best pub in the toon). The shared living space in the flats felt quite separate as the kitchen and sofa area were almost like two rooms, but a lot of people including ourselves moved the flat around a bit to make it feel more communal,. My room personally was overlooked by the gym, which meant it was dark most of the time which wasn't great, and those rooms were absolutely sweltering come April/May time. The onsite staff were good, would help all hours of day and night if you left your keycard somewhere, and it was free to replace which was good as I went through about 12 of them. The social space in Irthing block was always empty, pretty decent to do some work in actually. Overall would recommend!

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.

WiFi can be lagging sometimes, but located right next to medical school and sports centre which is very convenient. The rooms are modern and has a lot of storage space.
I had a great experience but it depends on your flatmates
Nice good sized rooms with great facilities. Friendly staff and it’s also a good sociable accommodation
park view has helped me to meet likeminded people and friends who i have brought into second year, however it is expensive for the facilities you get and location which is further out of the city.

I am super happy with park view. The people are great, it’s in a perfect location and reception is very helpful. Only thing i’m disappointed with is the wifi being very slow, forcing me to have to go the library to study.
If you are arriving this weekend for the start of term, the parking is extremely challenging as it is still a building site. Only one or two cars can get onto the site at a time. Arrive early and do not rely on parking on Richardson Road - turn up before Friday if you can, but call reception first so they can sort your key out. Staff are all very helpful, with students volunteering for free to unload cars - please be nice, they are so overworked but extremely helpful, and they are volunteering! If you can't find the new postcode on satnav, just look for Richardson Road, right next to the hospital (Royal Victoria Infirmary) - the entrance is by the traffic lights, check on Google Street View so you know. 1,200 student arriving this weekend - seriously, get here early or on Thursday. We unpacked while waiting in the queue to get onto the site - and that was on Tuesday! Avoid Saturday if you can as it is a match day and the football ground is nearby. The rooms are great though - all new.
Park view is new, ensuite and in the thick of the uni
3 minute walk from lecture theatre, great space and wonderful view. A place im happy to call home.
This accommodation is new this year, but already we've had issues with dodgy ovens, There is nowhere near enough social space for the 1200 students who live here, but the communal spaces are kept clean.
The main complaint I have for Park View at the very moment is that it is besides a construction site. If you value your beauty sleep then this place is not for you (until the construction has stopped, obviously). The social experience is standard, 8 people to a room so there's good chance to find someone you like. However, the social aspect tends to be what you make of it. Nothing is going to force you to talk to people. The internet is fantastic, especially if you're a gamer. Rooms contain ethernet ports as well. There's one common room to 1000+ people, it's rarely fulled to the brim but it could've done with more space. The location is just under 10mins to the center of town.
Very nice halls, if you want to be near the uni, whilst be far enough away to not feel trapped by the campus. The rooms are of decent size and the kitchen area is quite spacious. However, as of next year the price will be increased from what I paid and as such can’t really say whether the value for mo way will remain.
