Begin your student adventure in an en suite apartment room or spacious studio in Kingston. Our two locations are brilliantly placed for Kingston University campuses and Kingston College. Roehampton University and St Mary’s University are a short hop on the train, while central London can be reached in 25 minutes by rail. Close to royal parks and the river, and with a buzzing student scene, there’s plenty in Kingston to entertain you.
In leafy Southwest London, Kingston is a place loved by locals and where students immediately feel at home. Centred around the ancient market square and the riverside, and with Richmond Park and London’s hotspots just 12 miles away, it’s a perfect balance of action, learning and leisure.
Most of central Kingston is pedestrianised, so you can stroll from your student accommodation to the centre of the action. Tuck into the street food in the buzzing market, meet friends in the riverside bars and restaurants, and check out the mix of indie shops and high street stores in the shopping area. Kingston has always had a strong music scene, with live music and nightclubs. For a big night out, you can be in London in 25 minutes.
Your central student accommodation in Kingston puts arts and entertainment on your doorstep. The prestigious Rose Theatre presents original and touring productions, while ACT is the place for performance and talks. Stanley Picker Gallery, part of the University of Kingston, exhibits innovative art, design and architecture. Dorich House, former studio of Russian sculptor Dora Gordine, is one of London’s hidden gems. And see the groundbreaking work of early photography Eadweard Muybridge at Kingston Museum.

Take a boat down the river to King Henry VIII’s palace at Hampton Court. And discover Kingston’s leading role in aviation history. Iconic aeroplanes were manufactured here, including jet fighters.
