London is one of the most exciting student cities in the world. In fact, it claimed the top spot in the QS Best Student Cities 2023 ranking as the best city in the world for university students.
Popularity can have its drawbacks though, and in London’s case, the city’s immense popularity among students and young professionals alike, has made the real estate market highly competitive. It can seem like finding high-quality student accommodation that’s not super expensive can be challenging in the UK capital.
The situation is not as bad as it might first seem though. Here we list five exciting opportunities for student accommodation in London. These properties offer student housing in good locations in the British capital, without being so expensive that only a few lucky students could afford them.
