Brilliant place, the teachers are wonderful and the actual campus is both diverse and has really good study spaces. I will say, the entire campus is on an uphill, which makes it quite hard to navigate sometimes, but it is 100% worth it read more

The staff at Royal Holloway are very good - it is hard at first to realise that you are now responsible for yourself but if you make the effort to reach out, then there are many different teams available that offer help. read more

Royal Holloway University is truly incredible! The community—comprised of both staff and students—is welcoming and vibrant. The variety of societies and the student union offer something for everyone, making it easy to find your niche. The courses are well-structured, and the professors are not only knowledgeable but also supportive, friendly, and always willing to help. One of the highlights of this university is its breathtaking campus. With its royal, ancient aesthetic, the Founders Building feels like it could be straight out of a Harry Potter scene (and yes, there's even a Harry Potter society!). As an international student, I’ve felt genuinely welcomed here. The politeness and friendliness of the people around me have made it easier to cope with homesickness, and I appreciate the support network available. There are numerous opportunities to socialize, making it easy to build connections. Overall, my experience at Royal Holloway has been fantastic and I highly recommend it. read more

The campus is in a quiet area with everything you need inside the campus. You can easily go to the towns close: Windsor, Staines, where you can find basically everything you want. The SU, different departments have a lot of events, so you can find anything for yourself. You are supported in every way if you seek for it. read more

Upon stepping onto campus, everyone including students and staff have been really helpful and welcoming. There are many campus facilities to use, especially love the Library, there are so many spaces to study. I love it. I am not a party go-er therefore I don't think my review for the SU is accurate. So far, there have been many career fairs and I know that I could make appointments with the career consultant if I ever need help. I know that the school has done a lot to extend help to students! read more

I live here third year in a row and I think it’s the best student accommodation to live in while studying at Royal Holloway. Rooms are cozy and equipped with everything you need, staff are always friendly and helpful and there are also some nice study/social common areas in the building. It is also extremely convenient in terms of the location, all the shops and cafes are nearby, as well as train station and bus station, by train you can get to the centre of London in 30-40 minutes and one bus goes directly to Heathrow Terminal 5, so the location is just 100/10. Really recommend it! read more

It is in a great location with nearby shops like Tesco and Waitrose and the train station is less that 5 mins by walk. There is also convenient access to the university via walking or bus. The rooms are cozy and issues are resolved fast read more
