Chamberlain Biography
Overlooking The Vale Village’s iconic lake, Chamberlain is home to over 700 students, making it the perfect place to meet people from all walks of life. Comprising three low-level rise blocks and a 20-storey tower, it offers a mix of catered (Student Living Plus) and self-catered modern ensuites, as well as private studio apartments.
If you choose an ensuite room, you’ll share your flat with up to five flatmates, including a contemporary kitchen-diner. Your room comes equipped with a bed, study area, private bathroom, and storage space; all you’ll need to do is add your personal touches to make it feel like home.
Want to experience the buzz of The Vale without the flatshare? Chamberlain’s spacious studio apartments come equipped with everything you need: a single or ¾ bed, dining space, bathroom, study space, and lots of storage for your student essentials.
Whichever room type you choose, you’ll benefit from being a short walk away from the Hub at Shackleton. This is the centre of village life, boasting great facilities such as an award-winning restaurant, bar, study and social spaces, and a convenience store.

Overall it was decent, but in my opinion it isnt worth how expensive it is. In addition, it is the furthest walk from campus. However it is a nice building and I have have many fun and social experiences there.
Probably the best accommodation at UoB. Very sociable accommodation which may get noisy sometimes (weekends + sports night), but bedrooms are soundproofed pretty well. The rooms and en-suites are very modern and have everything you need. - the rooms are slightly bigger in block a, b and c compared to the tower. UoB says that all beds are small double but the beds in the blocks are actually just the full double size, with the tower having small double beds. The kitchen can be quite small - very limited cupboard space and not really enough room for more than one person to cook at a time with the kitchen layout. However this isn’t too much of a problem as everyone doesn’t usually cook at exactly the same time. Also, with much more people living in the tower the fire alarm tends to go off more often than blocks (at least once a week in my first semester!). Regardless, the tower does have better views especially higher floors looking out onto the vale and I would highly recommend.
Great bathroom and room but no phone signal anywhere in the flat
Very nice and clean, wifi and washing machines can be better
Great room and en-suite. Great management too.
Higher price but worth it for the larger rooms, social spaces and overall facilities.
Nicest uni accom around, social life could be better but depends what you want
Too much money for what it’s worth and way too far away from campus
Overpriced accommodation that the uni want to profit off. Do not study here.
A bit pricey but well worth it. The rooms are very nice, with plenty of storage and actual en-suite bathrooms compared to the wetrooms at most other UoB accomodation on the vale. The kitchen can be quite small if you are self catered, so you will often have to work around others or plan to cook when nobody else is in the kitchen, which can be frustrating at first but you'll get used to this very quickly.
Good veiw and new facilities. enjoy my stay here
A university that is very well run. It is almost like living in a hotel.
Had the pleasure of living on the top (19th) floor, beautiful view. These halls do not have a cleaner except for public areas + the showers so any flat cleaning is up to you. Kitchen/Lounge area great, really comfy large sofas, with a big white wall which we pointed a projector at for movies. Bedrooms have very limited floor space in the tower, but it is better in the blocks. Nice separate shower rather than a wet room which is a bonus. There is enough storage for most people. Overall, I’d say it’s worth the premium price.
Not cleaned entire year, meal plan is AWFUL. So expensive and just s***. Block door, hallways and lift are an absolute disgrace and stink of dead things which is never cleaned. Maintenance is hit and miss. Lift breaks at least twice a semester.
