The most listed room type in Bristol

Bristol studios

Bristol has more studios than en-suite rooms on our site, many in the centre near Temple Meads, Cabot Circus and the Harbourside. The University of Bristol is a walk up the hill. UWE students usually face a bus ride to Frenchay.

Before you chooseIf you study at UWE, compare the bus route to Frenchay before you pick a central studio.

Bristol student accommodation for the University of Bristol and UWE

Bristol has two very different universities: the University of Bristol, spread around Clifton, Tyndalls Park and the new Temple Quarter campus, and UWE, based mainly at Frenchay in North Bristol. It is one of the dearer student cities we cover, with rooms from around £185 a week.

Bristol uni accommodation: which area should you choose?

Most University of Bristol teaching happens around Tyndalls Park, on the hill above the city centre. Weigh the university's own portal against private rooms, then Clifton, Redland and Cotham, Stokes Croft, and how students feel walking home.

The precinct around Tyndalls Park

The University of Bristol's main precinct sits around Tyndalls Park and Queens Road, on the hill above the city centre. Travelwest names the 72, U1 and U2 among buses for the area. Living within a short walk saves time, as Bristol's hills make some routes slower than the map suggests.

Clifton, close but pricey

Clifton sits just west of the university precinct, with Georgian terraces, Whiteladies Road and the suspension bridge nearby. Students often say it is lovely but pricey, and private student properties there are few. It suits students who value a short walk over saving rent.

Redland and Cotham for second years

Redland and Cotham, north of the precinct, are calmer residential areas full of shared flats and houses. Students describe them as safe and close to campus, though rents match Clifton. Redland station and the Gloucester Road shops are close, and many second years move here with friends.

The university portal or a private room?

Bristol's university runs its own residences, and many students search for its accommodation portal to apply. Private properties are the other route, especially after first year or when university rooms fill. Weigh the weekly rent, bills, contract length and walk to your school on both before you choose.

Stokes Croft and Gloucester Road

Students on a tighter budget often look at Stokes Croft and Gloucester Road instead of Clifton. The area is known for street art, independent shops and nightlife, and several purpose built student blocks stand nearby. It is a walk uphill to the precinct, but usually cheaper.

Walking home in Bristol

Students describe Clifton, Redland and Cotham as safe areas, while busier nightlife streets around Stokes Croft call for more care late at night. Wherever you live, check the route home from the library and Students' Union, and save a taxi number for late finishes. Hills make some walks longer than they look.

Frequently Asked Questions

Best Student Halls lists student accommodation for searches in Bristol from £180 per week across 30 properties. Find answers about rent, bills and choosing accommodation near your university.

How much should I budget for student accommodation in Bristol?

Listed accommodation for searches in Bristol starts from £180 per week. Compare the weekly rent and number of contracted weeks, then add transport, laundry and any bills outside the rent. Use the selected room price for your intake rather than a general city average.

Should I search near the University of Bristol or UWE Bristol?

These are different universities with different teaching locations. Compare University of Bristol accommodation separately from UWE Bristol accommodation, using your course building. A room marketed as being in Bristol can be convenient for one institution and require a much longer journey to the other.

Is a Bristol city-centre room practical for UWE Frenchay?

Compare the bus or cycle journey to Frenchay before booking. UWE offers accommodation at Frenchay, Glenside and in the city, so a central address is only one choice. Include the service frequency and fare in your comparison, especially for early teaching sessions.

How should I judge the walk from a Bristol room to lectures?

Check the actual street route and gradients, not just a straight-line distance. Decide whether the journey works with your timetable and any access needs. If you plan to cycle, ask the property about secure storage and consider a backup route for poor weather.

Can I choose between a studio and an en-suite room in Bristol?

Best Student Halls lists 30 properties for Bristol searches, with studios and en-suite rooms among the room types. A studio has private cooking space and a bathroom; an en-suite room normally shares a kitchen. Compare the floor plan, full rent and room availability for your course dates.

Can I rent a Bristol student room for a placement or exchange term?

Request a contract covering the dates you need in Bristol and ask which rooms accept those dates. Do not assume a full-year advertised room can be shortened. Compare the total rent and any period between your course finishing and the tenancy ending.
