University of Leeds Accom Rankings

The best value accommodation by far. It’s the cheapest, with the biggest rooms, best location (directly on campus), and with free utilities (eg washer dryer). The social aspect is also pretty much identical to regular halls, as all the houses are located directly next to each other. So don’t worry about that. I’d recommend the shared houses to any incoming Uni of Leeds students, kind of criminal more people don’t know about them.

Good price for what is a nice accommodation at a great location. Lots of opportunity for socialising as there is a lot of people packed together. Slightly sad there is no common room but not the end of the world. The rooms are somewhat small but didn't bother me and lots of storage so that's fine. Most toilets are jack&jill which is pretty chill though I suppose it is up to whether you get on with the person you are sharing it with. Kitchens are kinda small but solid stuff and are the main social area within a flat. If you're unlucky you might get put top floor which is a bit of a trek.

Leodis was perfect for settling into Leeds. I found that because of the way it is set out, it becomes very sociable quickly with everyone in the block becoming accustomed with each other. Our block had a group chat for parties during freshers which helped me meet my close friends that I have kept since. Although Leodis bedrooms are on the smaller side, mine had an en-suite, double bed and suitable desk space. They also have hard floors which are easier to keep clean in student accommodations. Kitchens are shared between around 6 people and there is a good amount of space with a kitchen table, two sofas and a TV. The common room might be smaller than other accommodations but it has a pool table and football table. The pool table is terrible but it still was very fun to play at. One of the best things about the accommodation is that it is so close to uni. It’s about an 8 minute walk to campus. People complain about the hill, but while it is admittedly steep, it takes such a short time to walk that it doesn’t matter. The price was really good while I was staying there but it has become more expensive since last year.

The accommodation is really modern, the rooms have everything you need (including an en suite) and there’s big social and study areas. It’s also an amazing location, right in the city centre, and a 10/15 minute walk to university. It is just really expensive and I think at other accommodations you can get better value for money.

pretty much what everyone else says about cv, the rooms are really nice and the location's great but it is a bit less social than other accoms. there was plenty going on in freshers though so you can definitely meet people then. it's right next to campus and close to town which is really ideal, there's also a tesco express in one of the blocks which was a life saver. it was a bit more expensive than other accoms but i think you get what you pay for with the en suite rooms.

Room is very small, single bed and no en suite. Kitchen is also very small. Shared bathroom was nice and showers were good and there was a weekly bathroom cleaner. I found it very easy to meet people as blocks are quite small so you will probably be able to meet every other flat in your block. Can be difficult to do your washing as there aren’t many machines. No common room but nice outside area. Next to a load of shops and pubs so great location, quite far from uni though but right next to the bus stop too and the bike lanes into uni are very good. Very worth the price if you don’t care about being further out or having to squeeze into a smaller flat.

1 common area was a good size, the other was very small. Location couldn’t have been more perfect for both university and catered meals. There is a high chance you won’t be put in the main hall itself but the houses are still very close.

Charles morris is split into 2 buildings next to each other. Storm Jameson (newer modern building) has east and west wing. This was double beds with en-suites. 4 rooms shared a kitchen and were self-catered. Dobree and weton buildings (where I stayed) were 11 rooms sharing 1 kitchen. However, all these rooms were catered and recieved a meal voucher to spend at the university union’s refectory for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Due to there being so many rooms sharing a communal space it was brilliant for meeting new people. Probably the best halls for socialising with new people at the university. I would say though, expect everybody within these two halls to be either from London or from the south due to the higher price tag. Overall, I’d recommended Charles morris to anybody from any background starting at the uni as I think it gives u the best starting point at uni.

The accomodation is definitely on the budget side and although it's a lot cheaper than other accommodation there are some serious sacrifices you make. Some of the room are very big 2/3x larger than the average student room however, not all rooms are this big . The kitchen in these flats is miniscule and only realistically allows one person to cook at once but with only 4 people per room it's not usually an issue. The Living space in these rooms is very bad and consists of 4 chairs and a table bolted to the wall with minimal space around them . Socially this accommodation is great as it is quiet enough to get work done but is right to next to other large accomodations so it's a perfect place to meet people.Modt people on both sides of the accomodation tend to be quite friendly too.

Wardens on site were very strict and very rude, rooms very outdated with cheap furniture and gross kitchens. Far away from the uni. Located on a nice green street though. The best thing about this accom is how close it is to James Baillie. NOT worth the money - if i hadn’t met awesome people i would’ve been very unhappy here
