Student Accommodation in Ultimo near UTS, Haymarket and Central
What is it like to live next to UTS?
Ultimo is the home of the UTS City campus. Living here means walking to class, with Central station and Darling Harbour close by.
Where exactly is the UTS City campus?
At 15 Broadway in Ultimo, on the city edge. The campus spreads across Ultimo, Chippendale and Haymarket, so its buildings sit on several streets around Broadway and Harris Street. Choosing a room near Broadway keeps most UTS buildings within a short walk.
Does UTS have its own student housing?
Yes, one residence. Yura Mudang sits above UTS Building 6 on Harris Street and houses around 720 students. It has studios and rooms in two or six bedroom shared apartments, all self catered, and UTS puts it five minutes on foot from the tower.
Is a Yura Mudang room guaranteed?
Not always. With one residence for a large university, rooms are limited and allocated through the UTS Housing application. UTS also gives guidance on off campus living, so many students line up a private property near Broadway as well.
Can you live on Wattle Street in Ultimo?
Yes. Scape Sydney Central at 483 Wattle Street, Ultimo, is the property we list inside the suburb itself. It sits at the lower end of our Sydney prices, and the UTS buildings around Harris Street and Broadway are within walking distance.
What students on Reddit say about UTS areas
Students on the UTS subreddit trade views on Redfern, Glebe, Waterloo and Zetland as places to live near campus. Each suburb has fans and critics in those threads. Treat these as student opinions, not rules, and visit first.
Properties listed for UTS students
For UTS, our listed properties sit in Ultimo, Haymarket, Redfern and Glebe, plus some in Kensington near the UNSW campus. Our UTS student accommodation page shows them with weekly prices and room types in one list.
Is Haymarket a good base for UTS?
Haymarket sits on the eastern side of UTS, between Chinatown and Darling Harbour. It is busy, central and full of places to eat.
Is Haymarket close to UTS?
Yes. Part of the UTS City campus is in Haymarket, so the walk to class from most Haymarket streets is short. You also get Chinatown, Paddy's Markets and Darling Harbour on the doorstep, and Central station is a few blocks south.
Three properties in Haymarket
Our Haymarket listings sit close together near Darling Square. Scape Darling Square is the lower priced, Scape Darling House costs more, and Scape Quay sits on Quay Street. All are a short walk from UTS and Chinatown.
Which light rail stops serve Haymarket?
Several. The L1 Dulwich Hill Line stops at Capitol Square, Paddy's Markets and Exhibition Centre, and the L2 and L3 lines run through the Chinatown stop on their way to UNSW and the eastern suburbs. Tap on with Opal or a card.
Is Haymarket noisy at night?
It can be. Chinatown restaurants and Darling Harbour stay busy late, so street facing rooms may hear traffic and crowds. Ask for a room away from the main road if you sleep lightly, and bring earplugs for the first weeks.
Food and markets near your door
Chinatown and Paddy's Markets give you cheap meals and fresh produce within a short walk of most Haymarket rooms. That helps a student budget, since you can shop daily instead of planning a big weekly supermarket run across town.
Chippendale and Central Park next door
Chippendale sits just south of Broadway, between UTS and the University of Sydney. Students on Reddit mention the Central Park area as close to the University of Sydney. It mixes new apartment blocks with old terraces, and Broadway shops are close.
How do you get around from Ultimo?
Ultimo sits next to Central, the busiest transport hub in Sydney. Trains, light rail and buses from here reach most other campuses.
How far is Central station from UTS?
Walking distance. UTS describes its City campus as within walking distance of Central Station and Railway Square, and most students walk it. From Central, trains run to the suburbs, the airport and regional NSW, with Railway Square buses right beside it.
Getting from Ultimo to UNSW
Walk to Central, then take the L2 Randwick or L3 Kingsford light rail. Get off at the High Street stop on the L2, or the Anzac Parade stop by University Mall on the L3. It suits students who share a flat across both universities.
Is Ultimo handy for the University of Sydney?
Yes. The University of Sydney says Central is about a fifteen minute walk along City Road, and buses from Railway Square stop at its City Road and Parramatta Road gates. See our University of Sydney accommodation page too.
Opal card tips for UTS students
Tap on and off on every trip with an Opal card or a contactless bank card. UTS notes that international students usually pay full adult fares, so living within walking distance of Broadway can save more than a cheaper room further out.
Redfern as a walkable option
Redfern sits just south of Central, and its streets lead north through Darlington and Chippendale towards Broadway. Scape Redfern on Eveleigh Street suits UTS students who want to stay near the Redfern station end of town.
Glebe for a quieter walk to class
Glebe lies just west of Ultimo, with leafy streets and Glebe Point Road for food. Some students walk to UTS each day, while others take the bus. Scape Glebe on Arundel Street is the Glebe property we list.
What does it cost to live near UTS?
Weekly rent near UTS covers a wide range. Room type and the exact street matter more than the suburb name.
How much is student accommodation near UTS?
Our listings near UTS begin at around A$490 a week, in Ultimo and Redfern. Studios and apartments in Haymarket cost more, and rooms out in Kensington near UNSW are among the priciest rooms on our Sydney listings.
Is Ultimo cheaper than Haymarket?
Slightly, on our listings. The Ultimo property sits near the bottom of our Sydney range, while the three Haymarket properties cost more. Room type changes the price more than the suburb, so check the room before the postcode.
How UTS Housing fees work
UTS publishes residential fees for Yura Mudang on its housing pages, set per room type for each year. Weigh those against private properties near Broadway, and check what each weekly price covers before you apply to either.
Can you stay long term in Ultimo?
Yes. Student properties near UTS let rooms for a full study year as well as shorter stays. Ask each property for its contract options, since terms vary by building and room type. Read the cancellation and early exit rules before you sign anything.
Sharing a flat to cut the rent
Students on Reddit suggest flatmate websites for cheaper rooms in share houses around the inner city. That can lower rent but means finding furniture and splitting bills. Filter apartments near Ultimo for shared flats in student properties.
What the weekly price usually covers
Listings near UTS often show wifi, study areas, social spaces and a safety app as features. Bills, furniture and cleaning differ by property, so read each listing in full. That helps you weigh a student property against a private share house.
