Student Accommodation in Salford FAQ's

Best Student Halls lists student accommodation in Salford and nearby parts of Manchester. Find answers about weekly costs, private options near the University of Salford, getting to Peel Park and choosing between Salford and the city centre.

How much is student accommodation in Salford a week?

Private rooms around Salford often cost less than the busiest parts of central Manchester. The nearby properties shown on this page start at around £215 a week. Rent depends on room type, floor and what bills cover. Use the room type filters on this page to compare studios and en suite rooms side by side, then check each listing's bills details before you book.

Can I get Salford uni accommodation that isn't run by the university?

Yes. The University of Salford has its own accommodation, but many students rent from private providers in Salford and across Manchester. Private properties add more choice of studios and en suite rooms close to Peel Park and the Quays. Compare the private options listed for the University of Salford and check how far each one is from your school's building before you choose.

Which station is closest to Salford University's Peel Park campus?

Salford Crescent. The university says the station sits between the Peel Park and Frederick Road campuses, and trains reach Manchester Piccadilly in about ten minutes. Many buses also stop on The Crescent outside the Peel Park entrance, including the 8, 36, 37 and 50. If you live in central Manchester, check your train or bus route to Salford Crescent first.

Is it better to live in Salford or Manchester city centre as a Salford student?

It depends on your budget and timetable. A University of Salford student blog describes Salford as quieter, cheaper and handy for early classes, while the city centre has more nightlife but means a daily commute by train or bus. If most of your teaching is at Peel Park, living near The Crescent cuts travel. Compare both on the Manchester student accommodation page.
