Charity halls of residence

Charity halls of residence tend to be cheaper, but tend to get booked up far more quickly as a result.  They generally offer fairly basic accommodation – clean but not in any way luxurious.  Some of the halls listed below have a religious affiliation, but welcome students of all faiths (as well as those with no faith) and cultures.  We have not visited these places and do not keep a check on whether they still have availability. 

Ashwell House: female-only hall located in Islington, ages 18 - 25 only.  Not very near any tube station but centrally located – on a direct bus route, allow 40 minutes for the entire journey. 

Guy Chester Centre: located in Muswell Hill, in North London (allow 45 minutes for transport).  Maximum age is 25 but exceptions can be made for postgraduate students 

Goodenough College: 15 minutes' walk from LSHTM. Goodenough College is an award-winning postgraduate residence in the heart of London and offers accommodation for single students, couples and families. 

International Lutheran Student Centre: offers very reasonably priced accommodation within 10-15 minutes walk of LSHTM.

Lee Abbey: located in Kensington, central London. About 30 minutes by public transport.
