Accommodation Options

Begin your exciting new journey and find your place at the University of Chester whether it’s with friends, flatmates or classmates!

Accommodation options include full board, self-catered and self-catered studio flats. We also work with selected private providers who offer similar alternatives.

So how to choose what to apply for? We have many different residences, but when it comes to applying, you simply need to pick your preferred board type, so it’s really easy! This means you should think about what suits your taste and budget. See all the options available below.

What's Included?

All University accommodation is fully furnished and includes bills, cleaning and broadband at no extra cost. All you need to bring is your bedding and those little extras that will make you feel at home. If you are allocated partnership accommodation, please keep in mind that your contract will be with the partner and what’s included may be different to what is included with University accommodation.

Check our FAQs for further details about what’s provided in your room, cleaning arrangements and how long your contract will run for.

Catering Options

If you like the sound of having your own facilities but don’t want to cook all the time, we offer a variety of meal schemes at our on-site catering outlets. This means you can enjoy tasty healthy meals prepared by our award-winning chefs on a regular basis, paid for on a termly basis, which saves you money and makes it easier to budget, too. We also offer a handy click-and-collect service to all students, for when you just want to eat something on the run or fancy a take-out.

Full Board

Full board accommodation is super convenient. It’s centrally located, has en-suite facilities, and all your meals are provided at our bright and modern catering outlet nearby. With shared common spaces and facilities for making drinks and snacks, this is a great option for those who like to spend time socialising but without the hassle of food shopping and cooking.

Self-Catered

We offer lots of different self-catered residences, each with shared kitchen facilities – perfect if you like idea of cooking your own meals alongside a few housemates. You can choose between en-suite or shared bathroom facilities.

Self-Catered Studio Flat

Our University-owned studio option is Grosvenor House. It offers spacious, fully equipped rooms with en-suite bathrooms and kitchenettes. This is the perfect option if you like having your own space and the flexibility to make your own meals. Grosvenor House has a large communal area and is right at the heart of Exton Park, so you won’t miss a thing!

Partnership Accommodation

We work with selected private providers who offer a mix of studios and self-catered en-suite flat shares. This is a great option for those who want modern facilities with the convenience of city or town centre amenities right on their doorstep. Your experience will be much the same as our University accommodation, in that you will be placed with other students from the University. However, please note that partnership accommodation is not owned by the University and as such your contract would be with our chosen private provider.
