Rooms are really nice, but lifts are often out of use, making it difficult to get to the floor you are on sometimes. Also, lack of communication about social events, or at least I am unsure of when they are happening.

Thanks for your feedback! If you have any maintenance issues, such as lifts being out of use, please report them to your hall reception so the team can get them resolved as soon as possible. We’ll also pass on your comments about social events to ensure better communication. - Harry
For the price, Towers Hall is very good for what it is. Regularly cleaned, with good food and friendly staff. Wi-Fi connection is dodgy, cutting in and out from time to time, but good when it works. It's quite far from my lecture theatres, but the university provides a regular shuttle bus across campus if needed. Overall a pretty good experience.

Very good hall. Clean and comes with all the necessary services you need + catered food saved me a lot of time, and it is nutritious and varied.

Room and kitchen area is nice. The showers could better, especially with 6 people to 1 shower/toilet, the ratio should be better. Wifi is awful sometimes which is not ideal to work

We do not tend to recommend accommodation based on location for a number of reasons. We like to have a mix of students from different backgrounds and courses within each of our halls.
Additionally, everything on our campus is within walkable distance and there is a free bus service for all students which runs every 10 minutes and will take you across the whole campus.

Hi, was wondering if you can eat in other catered areas around campus or do you have to eat in towers catering only?
Thanks.

Hello and thank you for the question! Towers is a fantastic option for catered halls as it provides meals for students 7 days a week, with breakfast, lunch and dinner Monday to Friday and brunch and an evening meal on Saturday to Sunday.
All meals must be taken in your own hall dining hall except for lunch, which you can eat at any of the six catered halls on campus with our new flexible lunch option. This is really convenient if you’re spending a lot of time in other locations on campus away from Towers, as you can eat at whichever is closest to you. In our recent catering survey, 43% of our students said that they already use the flexible lunchtime option and that it has been a great way of socialising with more people.
