I’d like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team that made my stay so pleasant. Duki at reception was incredibly warm and enthusiastic, always quick to help me with any issues I had. Elliot and Ventsov from maintenance were both excellent, working efficiently to fix any issues and keep everything running smoothly. When my fridge started leaking and had an unpleasant smell, Tanja from housekeeping was very efficient in resolving the problem right away. The rest of the staff were also wonderful, always friendly and helpful. This team truly went the extra mile with their professionalism and kindness. I’m really grateful for the excellent service!

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.

Fast sorted whenever a problem is reported, friendly staff and amazing location, overall I enjoy living there a lot, just the price is a bit high
It is good and welcoming. There were some issues with the kitchen but that was manageable. The staff responds quite well and quickly when there are maintenance issues. The social and study spaces are wonderful.

Good student accommodation conveniently located. Communication could have been better but the staff was great.
I loved my time here. It is close to everything and the staff were really helpful and nice. I would diffidently recommend living here.
Where do I start? This was the worse experience ever. The management is terrible. 1. No hot water in the mornings 2. Kitchen is disgusting. It has been a year and NO ONE cleans it. I have reported this several times. 3. Construction works are also taking place and no one made us know regarding the noise. the noise does not stop during the whole day 4. There are constant water issues in the kitchen, making all the dirty water from other flats go out. No one did anything for a whole weekend 5. Maintenance works are taking place in the final stage of the dissertations. There is no access to common areas, it is full of workers. 6. A worker entered my room without my permission. This is completely unacceptable I really regret living here and you are making my final stay in London one of the worse experiences.
Good experience better than expected
A brilliant student accommodation! The team at the reception are so welcoming and helpful, especially Fee who’s always kind and ready to help, whatever the problem! I would highly recommend, as it’s very easy to get to UCL, comfortable, safe and a great place to live.
My building was undergoing maintenance— structural scaffolding— and happened to be right outside of my window. I had an important online meeting to attend regarding my dissertation, and was concerned about the noise. I went down to reception to ask what I could do. Dushanka was so understanding, and went out of her way to find me a quiet place to take my meeting in! I felt very supported by her kindness and quick problem-solving.
My flatmates are all very nice, we had great time.
Once the water problem was fixed this accommodation has overall been great. I will say that the rooms are incredibly small for the price. There’s also been a ton of road / construction work late into the night (10PM-4AM), and before we solved the hot water problem, our accommodation would lack it about one night every 2 weeks (unacceptable for how much we’re paying). I’d say the price should probably be around £220 per week for the en-suites, but I know you guys are increasing the price to £330ish per week. Ridiculous price but when your audience is captive I guess you can. Again, it’s nice don’t get me wrong, but definitely not THAT nice. I’d expect around twice the square footage for the price you’re increasing to next year. Management is the best part about this place.
Love how close it is to the tube and the social spaces are cool!
A great place to live and call home. The staff are friendly and attentive to any issues that arise. The building is well located, clean, and has a nice atmosphere.
Provides a nice student environment
Really great place to stay with friendly people
Great location, excellent and responsive management team
Phedon Is THE BEST person to go to in this property He is so nice and helpful with everyone Bless you mate
ali helped us unclog the kitchen sink. He is a very nice people.
Hi! Great news and glad to hear you find our staff helpful and efficient
The location of Stapleton is very well, there are many restaurants and supermarkets around it. Ali is a good maintenance man in this accommodation. He always comes and fix the problem quickly.
Hi, Thank you for sharing your experience - it is very valuable to us!
Dushanka is superb! She is helpful and kind, very friendly and help me to solve my problem right the way. I’m so glad to have her in stapleton house!
thanks :)
Modern accommodation directly next to the Emirates Stadium and Holloway Road tube station. The reception staff is very friendly and super helpful. I had a problem with my shower (could not stop the water) on Easter Sunday morning and the receptionist (Dushanka :)) helped me within minutes and even managed to fix the shower within one hour. Amazing work - very friendly and skilled!
Hi, thank you for good words! So happy to hear that you had a great experience in Stapleton house.
The staff Ali is very nice and helpful when cleaning my basin! Very productive and polite.
Hello, Thank you very much! We are happy to hear that. Stapleton House Team
Stapleton is right across the road from Holloway train station which makes travel a lot easier. Tesco, Sainsbury, Waitrose are nearby as well, if i need to buy groceries, i don’t have to go very far. For Arsenal fans, Emirates stadium is a 3 minute walk away. I have been very happy with my choice
Hi, Thank you for leaving a very helpful review! We are happy to hear that you are enjoying living in Stapleton House and finding the area good as well. Your Stapleton House Team
cleaning staffs not responsible enough, kitchen places not large enough for sharing., like two fridges not enough for near ten people, maintenance too often; internet most time fine, but lost for four days; some receptionist not very friendly, most of them are fine. in general, good price for an ensuite room at relatively centre location
Hello, Thank you for sharing this information. We are sorry to hear about the issues. Please can you pop down to the reception to talk to the Team Leader or send us an email so we can help you in sorting the issues or clarifying some information? Thank you Stapleton House Team
Ali and ET are very great repair staff, safe and quick, thanks so much
Thank you!
I am very content with living in Stapleton House. The staff here is really attentive and hospitable. Specifically, thank Dushanka and Ali for getting my maintenance issue fixed so quickly
Hi! Thank you, we are very happy to hear that Stapleton House team has been helpful!
It's a lovely place to live. The staff is friendly and always welcoming. They are always ready to help you. Neighborhood is good, there is a lot of groceries and restaurants nearby. There is a tube station right in the corner. If you are a fan of Arsenal, the stadium is around 5 minutes walking. Hampstead Heath Park is around 20 minutes walking.
Hi, Glad to hear your life in Stapleton House was good and convenient due to the property's location.
I want to acknowledge the work of Phe at Stapleton House. He has been really gentle and supportive since I arrived. Without his help, I would not feel as good as I do living here, especially regarding daily routine issues.
Hi, Thank you very much for good words. So glad to see the difference that staff can make!
I lived in Stapleton House for one year from 2020 to 2021, and I am currently in my second year of living here. The flat is spacious, modern, and equipped with all the amenities I need. I appreciate the communal areas, which are always spotlessly clean and well-maintained. But what I feel most satisfied and grateful for is their understanding and support for international students. In particular, I would like to express my gratitude to Phedon and Dushanka, who went out of their way to help me settle in when I first arrived this academic year, including collecting daily packages for me. They always greet me with warmth and friendliness, and I appreciate the short pleasant chats we have from time to time. I would also like to thank the rest of the staff for their exceptional service. Overall, I highly recommend Stapleton House as a place to stay. Whether you are an international student or a local resident, you will not be disappointed.

Hello, Thank you very much for leaving a review with us. We are happy to hear that your experience living with us has been positive. Your Stapleton House Team
Stapleton House is a student accommodation located in the heart of Central London. During my stay, I was pleased to find that the receptionist and maintenance staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They were always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that residents felt comfortable and satisfied with their living arrangements. Specifically, I must give credit to Phedon, as he managed the board game collection after an instance of a missing board game. He is also taking advice from us when he put up a list of board game collections. One of the highlights of my experience at Stapleton House was the small collection of board games available for residents to use. This was a great way to unwind and socialize with other residents in the common areas. It was a pleasant surprise to find these games available and it definitely added to the overall atmosphere of the accommodation. However, the acoustic insulation in the building was quite poor, and noise from adjacent rooms and hallway
Hello, Thank you for leaving a review for us. We are pleased to hear that the events that we try to tailor to students are well-received and valued. If you have any reccomendations feel free to present them to the reception staff. Please reach out to us if you think there is anything we can do about the noise. Thank you Stapleton House Team
Stapleton house is an excellent accommodation, that has made my life in London much easier. The staff is super friendly and kind. I would really like to mention about Phe who has been very helpful in bringing in board games , been very kind in installing a new PS4 and has made tremendous changes in the common room to make the place more lively and his smile always enlightens the environment. Next I will like to talk about Jo who has been super kind and helpful in providing any possible assistance and lastly Ripon who has been very kind in providing assistance whenever I am working late night.
Hello, thank you so much for your great review! We are so happy to hear that your experience in Stapleton House has been positive and you feel supported by the wonderful team. We always strive to listen to students' needs and we are happy to hear that installation of PS4 has been of importance to you and other students living in Stapleton House. WIth thanks Stapleton House Team
The receptions of Stapleton house is always ready to help. I was stuck inside the bathroom because the door lock happened to be broken that day. And I yelled for help and luckily my roommate heard me and called help from reception. Phedon, the manager of the reception of Stapleton House saved me. He went up and down stairs to find different tools and called the repairman up to find out an effective way to open the door. I didn't think I could come out within a such short time if there is no Phedon’s help before I got panic.
Hello, we are sorry to hear that the door lock got broken and you got stuck in the bathroom! However, thanfully Phedon has managed to sort the lock. Hope this won't happen again.
