Faraday Reviews

i enjoyed living in faraday hall

The best catered hall on campus. Food is served on a three week rota basis so you get some variety, and Faraday is near all the other accommodation halls on campus, so it's really easy to socialise. We're really near the library and the paddock for your study and sport fix, and even the standard option rooms don't feel cramped sharing a bathroom.

Faraday is great. I didn’t choose it at first but am so glad to be here.

Friendly atmosphere in a practical location. The area is decently managed, and the wifi is very good.

Very sociable but very destructive.

Great location and place to live but overall building has become old and outdated so does not give best value for money.

The best hall there ever was with the best people there ever were

Faraday is like a family! You can't not feel welcomed

Was a very convenient location, helpful to have catering service during the week. Making friends was more difficult given the nature of circumstances but overall good rooms and experience.

A great hall to move into as a fresher. Ample opportunity to socialise and dining room encourages social activity.

Better for people who are less fussed about facilities and more about the connections you make within the hall. Everyone is very friendly and the social activities are really good. The only downside is the age of the hall makes it sometimes annoying with a few things breaking throughout the year.

The room is okay but the maintenance is slow response. I see the some parts of my room and kitchen aren’t clean properly.

The hall was reasonably priced compared to other halls, but it seemed like we were still not given all the facilities.

I really enjoyed first year at Loughborough University even during the corona virus outbreak.

Overall, I enjoyed Faraday. Its location is very practical and the committee is very friendly. However, standard rooms with small kitchens are not great (no chairs only stools, small tables, and can get very crowded)

really good accommodation with practical features, kitchen has certain fault s but overall its an amazing experience.

Faraday hall was so inviting and lovely. It really made the experience of moving into university so easy. The hall was so sociable and there was always an opportunity to see people at lunch and supper because of he catering aspect. The wardens and committee were so helpful and lovely to talk to about anything. The cleaners would clean all communal spaces once a week and even the bedrooms every two weeks which was incredibly helpful and sanitary. Faraday hall is in an ideal location bang in the centre of campus and right by the coop.

Unreal experience, great location! Rooms are good, food is good!

I lived in Faraday in my first year of University and I had the best time! It was so ideal because I had my breakfast, lunch and dinner cooked for every weekday. Faraday is also in a great location, being close to all of my lectures and is close to campus facilities such as the Union and Library. The social experience was fantastic! I made friends for life and was able to get involved in a lot of hall events.

Faraday was incredibly social and convenient for lectures.

Amazing hall experience provided year in, year out! Home away from home place to have a great time and meet amazing people

Love Faraday Hall! Best Hall on campus, hands down.

Very expensive but rooms are not as good as in other similarly priced halls, events overall are disappointing and there are often problems with heating and with wifi

Fantastic halls, great people, good location, blocks give a home like feel, excellent overall

Faraday has a great family feel to make everyone feel at home!

Love this hall very much. Had an amazing time

Being on Hall committee gave me excellent insight into the running of the hall and made me get fully stuck in to everything Loughborough has to offer outside the classroom

Excellent location (especially for sport science students). Good value for money with the catered option. Wifi has been temperamental over the past two years but very friendly atmosphere.

I didn't live in halls, but I was affiliated with Faraday which was a good way of meeting people during Freshers.

Faraday is a sociable hall with a range of different rooms to choose from. The catering experience was excellent for helping new students to settle in without the worries of food shopping.

Loving the hall so far great atmosphere with great people. Have managed to get involved in committee. Location is perfect for all my lectures :)

Good experience at Loughborough as a first year student .. coming back next year !

with faraday being a catered hall it means social life is very strong and much easier to make friends

Amazing hall camaraderie and social life. The hall is in a perfect central location.

Got to meet loads of new people! Staff are super friendly and rooms are of a good size. Would recommend first years to stay here

The hall is good and close to most of my lecture rooms. It is catered and adds up to its value.

This halls is very good I would recommend it

Faraday makes you feel part of a family and is inclusive of everyone no matter your background.

Love love love Faraday - perfect location on campus for everything! originally wasn't my first choice but I am 100% glad I ended up as part of the Faraday family

I live in an ensuite room with an extra kitchen, which is much more useful then the standard one. The bathrooms are small. The cleaning service is good. The dining hall is ok, the staff is really nice, but the diversity of food is not the best. They do have vegatarian food and different types of meat, but we eat too much pasta and potatoes.

I was nervous about joining university due to the fact I'd be leaving home but Faraday has become my new home. The whole place is so nice that I have no regrets about choosing it.

Overall a good hall and I met some great, long-term friends here. However, the rooms and hall as a whole is a bit dated in comparison to some of the other, newer halls on campus.

The Committee in hall make the experience so special!

The Hall committee are brilliant year after year and create and unbeatable student experience.

I only had one year in halls but my catered hall allowed me to avoid having to cook after late lectures and encouraged a very social environment which allowed me to gain loads of friends

Everyone is really friendly. Great location- closest hall to papa si's,ecb center and most lecture halls. Best sports hall in Loughborough over many years and runner up this year for hall of the year

Not a bad word to say about living in Faraday. Being a catered hall adds to the social dynamic of the hall, whilst not having the added pressure of having to cook every night, especially for a busy fresher! Excellent rooms for the price paid, spacious and very clean. The social scene is second to none, with events taking place nearly every week. And being officially the best sporting hall in Loughborough just puts the icing on the cake.

Excellent to be part of Faraday hall. Being in a catered hall is very sociable, having met so many people this year. The food is nice, with a variety of dishes at lunch and dinner. The rooms are spacious, and are cleaned on a fortnightly basis. The social life is excellent, events on every week!

Such an incredible hall and everybody is so friendly. There are loads of hall activities to get involved in from sport to raising money for charity. Going self catered is definitely worth it, the food is generally good and there's plenty of choice but even just being able to sit with anyone you want means that you can make so many new friends.
