Comfortable Living
At Leicester University, distinctive architecture meets contemporary comfort—something particularly visible in The Village, where its Edwardian bedrooms feature spacious layouts with elegant wooden paneling. By choosing between the Village’s atmospheric character and the City’s dynamic pace, residents can settle into accommodation that matches their preferences while maintaining convenient campus connections through various daily routes.
Rooms
Leicester University’s single accommodation spans multiple options, starting with standard Single Bedrooms—approximately 950 rooms in The Village and 20 in The City. Those who value additional comfort will find Single Bedrooms offering around 750 spaces in The Village and 650 in The City. For complete privacy, Single Ensuite rooms provide private bathrooms, with roughly 1,000 available in each location.
Accommodation Options at Leicester University
For residents seeking complete autonomy, Leicester University provides Single Studio Flats—20 in The Village and 100 in The City. These compact apartments come with their own kitchen and bathroom, supporting fully independent living. Those who appreciate more space can opt for One-bedroom Flats, which feature separate bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas: 10 in The Village and 20 in The City. As an economical alternative, Twin Bedrooms offer 20 rooms (40 places) where each resident has their own bed and wardrobe.
Amenities
Different buildings at Leicester University have varying arrangements for shared kitchens and bathrooms, depending on their layout. Kitchens typically serve four or more residents, while bathrooms accommodate three. Since room sizes vary—ranging from smaller to larger spaces—this affects pricing within each accommodation type. For those with special needs, adapted rooms are available in Bowder Court, Southmeade Court, The Pavillions, and Nixon Court Blocks A-E, featuring handrails along with modified bathrooms and kitchens.
Pricing
Accommodation costs at Leicester University correspond directly to amenity levels, ranging from basic rooms to fully self-contained apartments. Because of the variety among buildings, even identical room types can differ substantially in price depending on location: from £70 to £270 per week.
Most spaces come from Single Ensuite rooms (around 2,000) and standard Single Bedrooms (approximately 970), while specialized options like One-bedroom Flats and Twin Bedrooms appear far less frequently.
