Student Accommodation in London

When is the best time to look for student rooms in London?

The best time to look for the best student housing in London starts in May, although there will be student accommodation available all year round. But this is when landlords and London student accommodation providers begin advertising available properties for the upcoming academic year. First-year and international students generally start looking in January for student halls or shared housing. It'll be better to start your search as early as possible, ideally six months in advance, to have a wider selection of international student accommodation options and to secure the best deals.
