Student Accommodation in Islington FAQ's

Best Student Halls lists student accommodation in Islington across 4 properties. Find answers about rent, London Met's Holloway campus, tube links into central London and other north London areas.

How much is private student accommodation in Islington?

Expect London prices. Rooms in properties linked to Islington start at around £305 a week, and studios cost more. Bills, room size and contract length all change the price, so compare the full weekly cost and not only the headline rent. Open each listing to check what is included and how long the trip to your campus takes.

How do I get from Islington to London Met's Holloway campus?

It is close. London Metropolitan University says its Holloway campus sits directly by Holloway Road tube station on the Piccadilly line, with Highbury and Islington station also nearby. From most of Islington that means a short tube, Overground or bus ride. Compare more rooms on the London Metropolitan University page.

Is Islington well connected for central London universities?

Yes. Angel station is on the Northern line, and Highbury and Islington is on the Victoria line and the Overground. Those lines reach King's Cross, Euston, Bank and Oxford Circus without a change. Campuses in Clerkenwell are also within walking or cycling distance. Plan your route on TfL before you choose a room.

Where else in north London can students find private rooms near Islington?

King's Cross is the closest choice. It sits on the western edge of Islington, has many purpose built student properties and has direct trains and tubes in every direction. Students who search for north London rooms often compare both areas. See the options on the King's Cross page.
