You cannot beat the location of this building for main campus at Queen’s. It’s super helpful to have laundry in my room and to have a dishwasher to stop the accumulation of dishes. It’s also pretty great having the option to have a barbecue. Staff is helpful - and there is always someone around to help you immediately if you’re locked out of your room or there’s an emergency.

Student Review: 2.1 /5
By member12112440 On 13th July 24 verified Verified student

Aster’s security is reckless and horrible. Theres people stealing stuff and given that anybody can walk in and out as they please leaves literally all the students vulnerable. Not having cameras in the hallway is incredibly stupid because this has been recurring especially in my experience in a span of a year alone. Nobody is held accountable and our safety was compromised. Especially the fact that there is no one on guard or 24/7 surveillance.

Aster house is a great student accommodation situated in Belfast the main advantages of this accommodation is the fact that it is very very close to queens university it’s less than a 10 minute walk to mostly all departments the student union is super close by and many restaurants and clubs nearby, it is a safe busy area and the fob system used in aster house makes it very reliable and safe during your stay, price point is a bit high but it definitely worth staying if you want an excellent locations and many facilities

Too expensive, poorly built, not worth it. Staff are amazing though. Lock out 25 pound charge is a joke and the company is clearly corrupt. Not happy at all. Love the facilities. Botanic exit and entrance is so unsafe. Love the free coffee and tumble dryers etc. cleaning is irregular and random. People randomly come into our flat unannounced. But staff make it amazing

Aster House offers numerous amenities that students would love to have. Things ranging from free laundry to free coffee and breakfast everyday are just some of them. However, Aster House may not for everyone as they start at quite the high price.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Aster house, so much so that I have arranged to return for an additional year along with my twin sister and a new friend. The staff at Aster house have welcomed me with open arms and have been so fantastic and accommodating during my stay. As a student who has decided to move away from home and travel across the see to attend university, I have deeply appreciated their kindness and patience.
