Here’s what our Students are Saying

 

Gerry, Aspect Language School, Jakarta, Indonesia
The Residence Hall is a great place to live. The staff are very kind and helpful and reception is open 24 hours, so no worries if you lose your key! Located in Chelsea, which is one of the best neighbourhoods in London, LRH is a suitable place for students. I'm definitely going to come back there!

 

 

 

 

Laurie Chapman, Whitman College, Washington, U.S.A.
The IES London Residence Hall offered me a positive residence hall experience. The staff are very caring and helpful and living in Chelsea offered a safe environment with easy access to the rest of London.

 

 

 

 

 

Johanna “J.J.”, Nowicki Gustavus Adolphus College, Minnesota, U.S.A.
I can’t believe how lucky I was to be able to live there. It’s probably the best location you can find in London: trendy, fashionable, and right off King’s Road! Everything you ever want is right outside the door: shopping, food, and pubs. At the same time it was very residential, quiet, and safe. If you walked the other way (away from King’s Road) you had a calm area with housing, so you really got the best of both worlds.

 

 

 

Maria Joao Carvalho, The School of Pharmacy, University of London Porto, Portugal
The IES London Residence Hall attracted me for its unique location in one of the greatest cities on earth. I was looking for a whole new life experience and it soon exceeded my best expectations. Everyday I meet students from across the world and being at home is always a different experience. I have found the perfect atmosphere for study and party in London. Home Sweet Home.
