This is the time of year when there’s a last minute dash to find student accommodation and here at studenthalls.co.uk we can offer some advice. There are many reasons why a student may be desperately looking for somewhere to live, either they have left their search too late or they’ve suffered a last-minute glitch in where they are currently living.

One of the recent trends we have noticed here at studenthalls.co.uk is that while the provision of private student accommodation has improved, it has led to universities improving their offering too.

Here at studenthalls.co.uk we are always intrigued by the tone of some articles featuring private student accommodation because many people are unaware of the strides that have been made in quality in recent years. This has been the feature of an article in a London newspaper recently which saw the journalist being particularly impressed by the quality of private student halls in North London.

With growing demand on first-year university accommodation leading to some students not being guaranteed a home, studenthalls.co.uk can help resolve the issue. Indeed, there’s also a growing trend for first-year students to opt to live in a private student halls for their first year and remain there for the duration of their studies.

We have mentioned previously on the student private halls website that the quality of accommodation has improved hugely in recent years. We have also flagged up the reviews from journalists writing for newspapers about the private student accommodation available in their towns and cities.
