Frequently asked questions about Davidson House, Kingston Upon Thames
How to Book?
Booking is easy—just click any "Book Now" button on the website to start your application. If you need help or want to book short-term lets or summer stays, contact the Residents' Team at your chosen property.
Booking Process Details
The booking process is quick and straightforward, but having some information ready will help. You'll need the name, email, and address of your guarantor, a headshot photo, and a bank card for the advance rent/booking fee (ROI only)
Do I Need a Guarantor?
Most properties require a guarantor, who will pay the rent if you can't. Your guarantor must be over 18, not live in a Fresh-managed property, and can reside outside the UK. After signing the contract, your guarantor must provide ID, proof of address, and sign the agreement. Some properties may allow you to pay the full year's rent upfront to avoid needing a guarantor. Check with the Residents’ Team if this option is available.
What is Advance Rent?
Most properties require advance rent when booking. This is refundable if you cancel within the cooling-off period, your place is withdrawn, or you cannot get a UK visa. This advance rent will go towards your first rent installment.
How to choose the Right Room?
We want you to love your room. Our Residents' Team can help you choose based on your preferences, like floor, view, and amenities.
Do You Need a Guarantor?
Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.
It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.

I’ve been really happy living at Davison. The best thing for me is the location — it’s very close to the university, which makes everyday life much easier and saves a lot of time on commuting. During my stay, the manager has been very friendly and supportive. Whenever I had any questions or needed help, she was always willing to assist, which made me feel comfortable and well looked after. The shared kitchen is spacious and always kept clean, making it a really nice place to cook and spend time in. It’s also very convenient for daily use. The sound insulation between rooms is also very good, so it’s easy to enjoy a quiet and private environment. When I’m in my room, I can really have my own space to relax, study, or rest without being disturbed. I’ve really enjoyed living here. It’s a comfortable, convenient, and well-managed place, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good living environment.

Davidson House was a great place to live during my time at Kingston University London. It is in a very convenient location, just a short walk from the Penrhyn Road Campus, which made getting to classes easy and stress-free. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had a friendly atmosphere. What made my stay especially enjoyable was the manager, who was always very kind, supportive, and approachable. She created a welcoming environment and was always happy to help whenever needed. I had a really positive experience at Davidson House and would happily recommend it to other students looking for a comfortable and well-managed place to stay.

I had a great stay at Davidson House. The manager truly takes amazing care of the place—you can really tell she cares and does her job exceptionally well. The rooms are a great size with beautiful big windows that bring in lots of natural light. The kitchens are spacious, comfortable, and a perfect spot to relax and chill. Overall, a very welcoming and well-managed place.
