Cathedral Court Reviews

It's in a great location, right on campus, however ... The bathrooms are tiny. Showers are so small it's literally difficult to rinse and lather because you have limited movement inside them. Kitchens are tiny. They wouldn't be bad for 3-4 people but 6-7 is definitely exceeding the limits. Very uncomfortable. No elevators in the flat I stayed in and walking up 3 flights of stairs after walking uphill is tiresome. Almost zero ventilation from windows so in the Spring/Summer it gets super hot in your room. No common area to socialize. People stay in their rooms, trying to socialize in the tiny kitchens is uncomfortable. Plenty of laundry machines.

Big room but small kitchen. Still can have social side of it or even go to other rooms to meet people. Lots of fun

Lovedddd shared accomodation best value for money and best people

Very beautiful and well located however had constant problems throughout the year. Loco broke on the second day and I was locked out of my flat with no lock on the main door for 2 weeks. Lift was constantly breaking. Doesn’t have a good ventilation system so higher floors get very hot or very cold. Cathedral bells being heard at all hours should be advertised as it played a part in many people’s sleep cycle.

New building, absolutely spot on. Get what we pay for staff are helpful and try to accommodate and cater for all needs. Any issues get dealt with or fixed same day. Right in the city centre and only 29 minutes walk to uni. Couldn't ask for a better place to oive.

Peaceful, very accessible and with the best location

I loved every minute of living at Cathedral Court! The best location out of all of the halls, lovely rooms. Kitchens are small but that wasn't a problem at all, still had more than enough space to socialise.

Great place to live, near Wates & the library. Kitchen very small but rooms are a nice size.

Great place to live, had many a great time there

Sikk court, truly the best of all the Surrey halls- only legends live here.

kitchen is way to small to be a proper social space for the whole flat

I live in private accommodation, but my friends halls seem good!

I tiny s*** hole you wouldn't put your dog in, but ridiculously close to lectures and the cramped space means you form close bonds

Conveniently close to all my lectures, can be noisy, kitchen ridiculously small and old

you live close to all the important places but your accommodation is nice and quiet. couldn't ask for more :)

The kitchens are tiny and sparsely cleaned, no room to socialise or cook as only 3 people can fit at a time. Makes pre drinks difficult and have to go elsewhere. The showers are what you would expect but the mould and spider infestation is not. Good location as opposite the library.

Kitchens are woefully small Common room could be a lot better considering we have nowhere else to socialise

Very very small kitchens with 4 seats for those living with 6 other people. Not good for socialising have gatherings in rooms instead

Kitchen cannot fit 3 people in let alone the 7 it is meant to cater for. Cleaner is rude and rearranges our kitchens for us and puts clean items in with dirty.

Nice, clean residence close to the library and wades cafe

The accomodation is located nicely and very near to classes and library. I can go out less than 5 minutes before class. The room is reasonably spacious but the kitchen is super small and can only fit 2-3 people at a time. The bathroom is quite small too, but is really clean. Overall, surely a recommendation.

The kitchens are far too small for the number of people sharing it. There are also not enough cupboards to store everything in the kitchen. Most of my food was in my room. However the rooms have a good size.

I shared a block with ~27 people of which 20 of us got on so well together (2013). Many of us are now in are finally year and constantly miss the amazing time we had in our 1st year and regularly find time to catch up. The important thing we realised is that everyone wants to have a good time, so there is no point in wasting time being shy about it. :) #Cath5A #Family

Very disappointed with my halls, no social space, tiny kitchens, toilets without sinks, and we are paying the same amount of money as people living in the exact same halls only renovated.
