Very friendly staff who are happy to help with anything and also great facilities throughout the building plus regular maintenance!
Not once since moving into this building this year have I had a positive experience, there is no security as the company refuses to pay for it so don’t forget your key because if you get locked out you’ll get charged a £48 call out fee !! amazing. The staff are ever changing and not one seems to know what is going on, my window has also been broke (it doesn’t close) since moving in and after multiple emails to the management and promises of it being fixed nothing has been done. The communal areas do not offer what you are enticed by on the ads so you better not want to play table tennis because such an amenity has never existed, the cinema room which they highly advertise? you guessed it, hasn’t worked since moving in oh and there is a gym but only if you feel safe enough to go in there since there has been so many break ins, multiple homeless people have been found in the stairwells and in the toilets and they even got away with a tv.
Best accommodation to go to. Would highly recommend

Complete Hell & Unsafe I am currently in my second semester living at fontenoy and it’s been utter hell for many of the residents. Firstly - Many of us had faulty appliances including cookers, heating and fridges which took weeks to be fixed - The building does not have 24 hour security which has resulted in homeless people entering the building and sleeping in corridors and communal areas with evidence of drugs being found. This has made it completely unsafe for residents. The TV in the gym was also stolen by and intruder. -There has been no social events whatsoever ever only ones hosted by the residents themselves. - The staff have a high turnover. Many staff members have left due to frustration with their superiors. Although the staff are very friendly and helpful they can only do what’s within their power. This means that from 9-5 the building is secure but after that we are left on our own. -complaints get no response This is daylight robbery.
I started university this September and chose to stay in this student accommodation. So far I have had the best experience, the receptionist Eddy is superb along with the rest of the staff, very welcoming and always happy to assist with anything. Whenever I have had an issue with an appliance in my room, finding something or struggling to do something the staff here are always willing to help straight away. The pricing for the studios is great and the rooms are also very spacious. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying in accommodation!
I spoke to a receptionist named Eddy. He dealt with my query efficiently and professionally. I was beyond pleased with the results and he helped my situation.

Thank you for your review! We love to hear your feedback and value opinions on how we can improve our service. Kidn regards. Fontenoy Team
Staffs are friendly and room condition is good. Thank you:)

Thank you so much for your kind words. Have a brilliant day!
I love living at fontenoy - it's so close to uni and the library. It's also a pretty quiet student accommodation which I like. The staff are excellent and Lauren is always really helpful.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We are so happy you are enjoying living with us!
Living in Fontenoy Apartments is a great experience that renews every day. I would say it is the number one students' accommodation regarding the location and the overview. 5 minutes and you will be inside the city campus of LJMU. The size of my studio and the smart way of furnituring, give a sufficient place and space, it is just as perfect as it should be for me. Fontenoy current management team are so lovely, you'll always find them smiling, greeting and chatting with you whenever you wanted to. In addition to their fast response to emails or any concern anyone might have. Moneywise, Fontenoy is not as cheap as other accommodations, right!. But you can find many benefits that make it worth that cost. I am really so pleased by the place i live in, and i feel that every single day.

What a brilliant review. Thank you so much for taking the time to complete!
They always greet you with a smile :)

Thanks so much for your review! :)
nearly city center and room is really good. close to LJMU. also the worker all very nice!

Thanks so much for taking the time to review!
It's been more than 2 years living in this accommodation, I am satisfied with it. Perfect location to Uni and city centre, spacious room size, social activity place such as gym, lounge, game room. Lastly, the best staff is in here.

We really appreciate your feedback. It is really important to us.
Fontenoy Apartments is the best student accommodation I’ve stayed in (I’m a PhD student so I’ve stayed in quite a few!). It is one of the most inexpensive options to live in a self-contained, high quality studio in Liverpool city centre. Fontenoy provides a mature and relaxed environment to wind down after a long day. The faculties are brilliant - high spec kitchen equipment, good water pressure in the bathroom, comfy 3/4 bed, tv, plenty of light (although I’d say Premium studios are just big enough for one person). The aesthetics in both the rooms and common spaces (which include cinema room, games room etc) are lovely. The staff are also so lovely - especially Lauren and Joe who are so helpful and friendly with any queries I have. I feel totally secure as all doors have keycard access. There is a great mix of postgrads vs undergrads, local vs international students so it’s a massively social and diverse environment. Would thoroughly recommend!

Thank you for your amazing comments about your stay at Fontenoy Apartments. We really appreciate the feedback!
Lovely and thoughtful staff who always try to provide the best living experience for the students in their accommodation :)

Thank you for your feedback!
The location is brilliant. A 5 minute walk to my campus is as good as it gets. Liverpool One is just down the road and all the nightlife is just a short walk. Lime street station is 5 minutes away along with the bus station so getting anywhere is easy. The staff and management are exceptional. 100% friendly and understanding. As far as maintenance any slight inconvenience is sorted instantly by the staff with no hesitation. The rooms are luxury, spacious and warm with plenty of storage space. All social areas are amazing and kept in pristine conditions. The bar is perfect for the accommodation social events or to invite a few friends over. The communal kitchen is great to have a group dinner with some friends. The cinema room is warm and cosy. The people who stay here are brilliant, a great set of friends to have who are really outgoing and genuine. The building is secure with multiple key entries to ensure the safety of those who stay here.

We are really pleased to read such positive comments about your stay with us at Fontenoy. Thank you for taking the time to complete.
I am really enjoying staying in Fontenoy, it is a home from home. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. As well as having our own spacious room which are private there is a good social side where the apartments hold events to get the students together which is a lovely atmosphere. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone and couldn't imagine living anywhere else during my time in university

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! Keep an eye out for some social events coming up soon!
I love living in Fontenoy. I am a PGCE student and I was looking for a quiet studio in a safe location. This place is just perfect. I feel so safe and I really appreciate having Lauren, Joanne and Joe in reception who are always able to offer great help or advice if it's needed. The accommodation is in a great location and is close by to all local amenities. I would definitely recommend this place to any of my friends. I'll be sad to leave my studio when I finish my studying in June. I couldn't recommend this place enough.

We really appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback. Thank you!
I LOVE living here at Fontenoy. Gives me the feel of living independently while having different opportunities to socialise with others living in the building. The social spaces are so aesthetically pleasing and there are meeting rooms where you can study alone or with friends. Thank you to Joanne, Lauren and Joe who always find time to help and give answers to questions❤️

Thank you for your feedback. Keep an eye out for some events in the social spaces very soon!
Friendly staff and good social spaces make for a good experience. Great location and solid accessories.

It is a pleasure having you here with us. Thank you for the feedback!
Joanne, Melissa, Joe and Lauren have done an amazing job making us genuinely feel welcome and at home. This means a lot coming from another country. They are also quick to respond to any requests. Thank you all very munch!

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. It really is appreciated.
Love it here! Such a great location with friendly staff that makes you feel welcomed. Totally recommend😍

Amazing thank you so much for your wonderful comments, you have just made our day! 😊
I would recommend this place to everyone. The studios are all really nice and mean that you get your own space to chill and wind down. But there’s also more social spaces and with the events they throw there is never a lack of something to do! There are great freebies like the Friday breakfasts, and the gym is free and has a nice selection of dumbbells. The location is perfect, it’s close to the central library for studying and also to town and campus. The staff are so wonderful and kind in this place and are always willing to help you out. 10/10

Wow ! Thank you for a fantastic review, we are so pleased to be able to work in our wonderful building and do our best everyday to make Fontenoy Apartments the best it could possibly be. Thanks for choosing to live wth us and for taking the time to leave us a great review. 😊
Living here has made me fall in love with the city! We’ve been staying for a year now and it gives us a snippet into what work life might be like- and the new management couldn’t make you feel more welcome!

Fantastic review, thanks so much for taking the time to leave your feedback, From all the team at Fontenoy Apartments 😊
Good service, very good facilities good living areas. The location is also perfect for students as you have all what u need close by

Hi and thank you for a great review, from all the Fontenoy team!
After a change in management this accommodation is fantastic. It is great value for money and your weekly rent includes the use of the gym, lounge area, the two private study rooms, games room, dining room and the cinema room. You can tell how much effort all of the staff put in for holidays and events and are all welcoming and friendly. My only critique is that there is no reception on Saturday and Sunday but it hasn’t really affected me as you wouldn’t have a reception at all if you lived in a student house/flat.

Fantastic review, Thanks very much and we always want to give our students the best experience and services. From all the Fontenoy team. 😊
Really enjoyed living here so far. They were able to organise short notice, short term accommodation for myself upon returning to uni in Liverpool. The accommodation is in the perfect location, only 5 minutes walk to both the town centre and my uni buildings. The room is lovely, modern and always warm. Nice modern kitchen, only problem I had was that I did not know the hob was an induction hob and so had to buy additional pans. Staff were really helpful and even offered for me to use the property pans until delivery of my own. The property allows for parcel delivery and staff will store parcels until you collect. Joe the maintenance guy is really quick to fix or change anything if necessary. There’s several social areas all of which have different features, the gym is small but has all the equipment necessary to complete a workout. The WIFI is the quickest I've experienced in student accommodation. I would highly recommend living here if you like your own space in student living.

Thanks so much, we always want to give our students the best service possible. Thanks for choosing to stay with us! From all the Fontenoy team 😊
The best accommodation value for money.

Brilliant review, we like to think so to! Have a great day from the Fontenoy team😊
Good wide spacious rooms with nice views from your window

Thank you for your great review, from all the Fontenoy team!
I've really enjoyed living here so far. My room is comfy and came with a TV on the wall opposite the bed which is really nice for movies, the kitchen is really modern and the bathroom looks nice. The WIFI is the fastest I've ever experienced as well which has been a luxury. And to top it all off the location is great, being really close to St. Johns Market which means you're close to pretty much everything in town. I would highly recommend living here.

Great to hear you are so happy with all the facilities here at Fontenoy Apartments, Thanks for a great review! from all the Fontenoy team.
Clean, spacious, and friendly residents staff always around to help out with anything!

Thanks for a great review, from all the Fontenoy team!
Fontenoy apartment is a great place to stay with nice and friendly staff as well as the term time residents. It’s located at the very center of the city therefore most of the things I would need or want are mostly close by. The staff have also been interacting with the students during the pandemic.

Brilliant review, thank you so much for your valued comments. From all the team at Fontenoy!
Fontenoy Apartments have most affordable studios in Central Liverpool. For the price you pay you’ll be glad to stay here. The reception staff are nice always have a smile, the Maintenance guy is the best! Whatever problem you have he’ll be more than happy to help and have a lovely conversation with you. The communal areas are always spot on thanks to the cleaner who’s in often! The studios themselves are very spacious and come with all the basics you’d expect. Very sleek design and comfortable beds. Would definitely rebook here.

HI, so happy to read your amazing review. Thanks so much and have a great day from the Fontenoy team 😊
Live here with my boyfriend & it's really lovely. Everything you need in a room & exactly like what we expected. Really like that there is the gym too with all the basics & a good booking system. Onsite manager are lovely, very helpful with anything you need & there are student wardens for our of office hours if you need any help. Would recommend as it's a good location too.

Thank you for leaving your brilliant review today, we are so happy that you are enjoying your stay with us. Have a great day from the Fontenoy team 😊
An amazing place to live! Rooms are very spacious and nicely decorated. The staff are all lovely and there's always things going on to get involved in. The building has various different areas for students like a cinema, gym, dining area and multiple study rooms. Location is great, only a 5 minute walk to the centre. The best accommodation I've stayed in!

Brilliant we are so pleased that you have left us this great review, we are here to make your stay with us the best possible student experience. Have a great day, from all the Fontenoy team 😊
This is the best accommodation I have seen so far in Liverpool. It is located in a great area, 5 mins away from the Albert dock, the Lime station and the Liverpool one shopping mall. Right across the street is the world museum and the library, easy access to all facilities and is quiet during the night. The accommodation also has gaming room, gym, common space and cinema room for socialise.The room is the best thing about this accommodation, 5 different studio room type satisfies your own needs, every room is furnished in a modern style, 2 giant French windows provides you a great view and sufficient sunlight. Room comes with a huge TV and multiple shelves for storage, if you go to the website you can see the room pictures and it’s layout. * The room is way spacious than you see in the picture!! I was surprised when I first moved here.

Jessie, thank you so much for your amazing review, we want to make sure all our students have the best time whilst staying with us, your reviews are what drives the team to keep providing you with fantastic facilities and help whenever you need it. Thank you From all the Fontenoy team 😊
It’s a great accommodation with great maintenance staff. Very helpful staff which are always ready to accommodate. It has good gym and it’s a very clean place.

Fantastic, we are so happy you are enjoying your time with us. Thanks for your great review!
- Best value for money accommodation I was able to find & hopefully price freeze and many offers will always be available! - Best student accommodation location by far (univeristy, shops & city attractions are all 5-15 mins away) - Upmarket accommodation design in all areas of the building & it’s studios only, so a quiet accommodation - Lovely new & old staff, and they keep improving the facillities - Nice current offers available (e.g. NHS £300 discount for healthcare students) - Flexibility with contracts (44 or 51 weeks or short stays) and being able to leave stuff over the summer even for 44 week contracts if the room is re-booked - Overall larger studio sizes compared to most of the other student accommodations - Great facilities, including cinema, gym, dining room (to have friends/family over once the restrictions lift) & soon a pool table! There are also private study rooms and 3 social areas (including some outdoor benches). Best student accommodatiom available!

Fantastic, thanks for taking the time to leave us this fantastic review, We will always want to offer our students the best experience whilst you stay with us! from all the Fontenoy team!
Staff are really nice and make an effort to organise activities for us on a regular basis. The decor of the rooms and social spaces is really nice. Unfortunately due to covid we've been mostly unable to use the social spaces, but in a normal world these would be great! I'd say my only real issue is only being able to open the window 1" as the rooms are prone to overheating in direct light and you just can't ventilate (we had a heatwave in September and it was unbearable being in the rooms) but this is more an issue with the building itself rather than management.

Hi, Thank you for a great review, If you get too hot again- please come see us at reception we would love to help with this. Have a great weekend from the Fontenoy team!
Very good place, all the services needed sre even provided

Thanks so much for leaving us your great review!
The Fontenoy apartment well situated with a great and kind stuff, great social spaces.

An absolutely lovely place to live! The staff are very kind and welcoming, they will help you with anything that you need. The accommodation itself is lovely and the atmosphere here is amazing! I’m very happy with my room and the other facilities such as the gym, cinema room and bar area- everything looks exactly like the online pictures! The location is also perfect, a 5 minute walk from the city centre. I’m very very happy and would highly recommend this student accommodation.

Fantastic, thank you for leaving a fab review! All the team at Fontenoy are very happy to keep offering our students great facilities and Bringing our game face everyday 😊😊

Fab location, great staff, great amenities. Would always recommend here to stay!

Brilliant, Thank you for your Fantastic review, so glad you are loving your stay with us! From all the staff at Fontenoy Aartments
Extremely Friendly onsight management team who do everything they can to help. Any issues are quickly resolved and the maintenance team is very quick to respond. Wardens within the building are also very friendly and effective when management isn't present which is a big help. Social areas are very well kept and theres often a range of activities held to get the students involved and socializing. Covid regulations are also strictly adhered too which adds a sense of safety to the building. I've moved here for a year from abroad and can honestly say I've had a great time in this student accommodation and have felt at home since the first day I moved in. One other positive is it's a stone through away from city centre and very close to both the bus and train stations which is useful when travelling to Uni. For the price we pay I would definitely say its value for money all things considered! I would highly recommend this accommodation to any students who are unsure on a place to stay.

Amazing review, thanks for all your positive comments, your review has just made the whole team very happy. Have a fab day!
This is an amazing place to live in and it is extremely peaceful. It has all facilities and the management staffs are so friendly and very helpful. I feel so safe here and highly recommend students to live here. Besides, they have many activities going on here and students can take part if they need something refreshing to start their day. Apartments are very clean as well.

Fantastic we are so happy that you are enjoying your time here... have a great day from all the team.
Great place to live in heart of liverpool

Great review, thank you from all the team!
Great building with nice rooms and great location in the centre of town. Staff are lovely and the new takeover gives the place a more organised feel.

Thank you for your great Review today! Best regards from all the staff at Fontenoy Apartments!
Shocked to see the amount of negative reviews on this accommodation when I couldn’t think of anything bad to say about it..I’ve been living here since July and got welcomed by the two new staff at the front desk who were incredible to my partner and I. Because nobody else had moved in yet they let me pick my own room with the view i liked the most, offered us some Prosecco on entry and replied to every email I had almost immediately. I cannot imagine the amount of stress the staff must be in under in these un-foreseen circumstances we are in yet everytime I walk in they welcome me in and ask about my day and always open to giving me recommendations of where to go in town. We are lucky we have them as they’re locals as well which means they have all the best kept local secret-locations google wouldn’t give you when you move into a new city! Due to coronavirus they offered me 2 months free during summer to which helped me out enormously as I felt more settled down before online universit

Thank you for leaving such a positive review, you have made this a great day! Thank you from all the team at Fontenoy Apartments.
Overall very friendly and helpful!! And a beautiful place, I fell in love with my flat from the minute I saw it online. The internet speed is fantastic (important for me as I play CoD with my family). Overall a lovely place to live, and though management is a bit new, and we’ve had a few hiccups, theyre very very kind and understanding and helpful!

Thank you for your Fantastic review, so glad you are loving your stay with us! From all the staff at Fontenoy Aartments
Fantastic place to live, thoroughly enjoying my stay - the new management are lovely and go out of their way to help! Would definitely recommend this place as it’s in an ideal spot with excellent facilities.

Thanks for your review! lets keep making Fontenoy Apartments a great place to live!
Stayed here since September 2018 when starting University as well as over the Summer periods. Enjoyed every part of the experience so far, with its location, views, as well as the spacious rooms themselves. Social areas when available are easy to use, always cleaned and well looked after by others as well as fun for all guests from the cinema room, on site gym and lounge rooms. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful with on site maintenance who are always happy to help with any issues. Would definitely recommend to those looking at somewhere spacious to stay right in the centre of the student district with University buildings and library’s around the corner with the city centre also a quick walk away. Would definitely give a 5 star rating overall. Will definitely be rebooking again soon for the final year.

Hi Luke Thanks for your fantastic review! Fontenoy Team :)
