When I first came here, people helped me with any areas of my life, inspiring me to be a kind person to the world. Now I learned how to develop academic skills, and earned friends for lifelong. Thanks UoB for the precious opportunity to let me grow in such a diverse environment. read more

As a Chinese student studying in the UK, living at Pavilion has truly been a heartwarming experience. Over the past year, Daniel at the front desk has been incredibly kind and helpful—whether printing documents for free or taking time to explain things to me with endless patience. Once, he even stayed after hours to fix my fridge and accidentally cut his hand in the process. On another occasion, he came in early to unblock a drain. His friendly smile, and warm greetings always made me feel at home. The entire Pavilion team is thoughtful and respectful—they never enter rooms without notice and even rescheduled maintenance time when I wasn’t feeling well. We often receive little gifts and festive surprises, and the facilities are excellent: reliable heating and hot water year-round, fast internet, and a fun common room. Cooking my favourite meals, watching TV, and relaxing here has made my student life both comfortable and fulfilling. read more

I highly recommend the Pavilion apartment in Birmingham! It has an excellent location, with both the train and bus services directly connecting to the university and the city center. You can walk to the large supermarket Morrisons and the gym. The apartment environment is quiet and clean, and each room is equipped with a desk and chair. There is a common entertainment room, which is perfect for relaxation and socializing. The apartment has its own laundry room and a package collection service. The benefits are particularly considerate: there is free Chinese food during the Spring Festival, and various surprise benefits on different festivals. Sometimes free drinks are also distributed. The front desk staff are very friendly and provide excellent service, making you feel at ease and comfortable living here. Whether it's the location, the environment or the service, Pavilion is a very worthy choice for student accommodation in Birmingham. read more

✨I’ve been living in a 1B unit for almost a year as a UoB postgraduate. It’s cozy, quiet, and feels like home. ✅ Private kitchen, no cooking smell The kitchen is completely separate — perfect for cooking without the whole room smelling. Equipped with fridge, oven, and strong extractor fan. ✅ Spacious and private You get a living room with a sofa and beanbag — ideal for relaxing or having friends over. It’s so comfortable after a long day study. ✅ Prime location Close to supermarket, restaurant and Fiveways station. Buses X21/X22 to UoB stop right outside; walking takes 20 minutes. ✅ Secure and convenient Double-door entry, 24/7 CCTV, and helpful reception. There’s a common room, garden, and affordable laundry room. ✅ Comfortable all year Warm in winter, not hot in summer. Bright, quiet, and perfect for focused study or relaxing after class. 🎯 Summary: If you want privacy, space, and your own kitchen, the 1B at The Pavilion is a great choice. Apply early — this layout goes fast! read more
