Choosing student accommodation in Canterbury often comes down to how well the property fits into your usual routine. Being close to university, having transport nearby and keeping everyday shopping within reach can save a lot of time once term gets busy.
Pavilion Court is located on Station Road West, close to Canterbury West Railway Station and within easy reach of the city's universities. The property offers shared apartments, studios and one-bedroom apartments, so students can choose between a more social setup and a greater degree of privacy.
With utility bills included, study areas, shared facilities and an on-site supermarket, Pavilion Court Canterbury student accommodation covers many of the practical details that matter during the academic year.
University life involves more than attending lectures. There are assignments to finish, meals to prepare, errands to run and plenty of time spent with friends, so accommodation needs to work around all of those parts of the week.
Pavilion Court offers several types of accommodation, including shared apartments, studios and one-bedroom apartments. Shared apartments give students the chance to live with other residents, while studios and one-bedroom apartments offer more private living arrangements.
The residence also has facilities for studying, socialising and keeping up with everyday routines. Study rooms provide somewhere to work away from your bedroom, while the club lounge and games room offer spaces to relax. An on-site gym, laundry facilities, bike storage and management support are also available within the property.

One of the more practical features of living at Pavilion Court is the on-site Sainsbury's supermarket. Having a grocery store in the same property means picking up food or household essentials can be done without making a separate trip across the city.
Tesco Metro, Waitrose, M&S Foodhall and Co-op Food are also nearby, giving students alternatives for their regular shopping.
There are plenty of places to eat and meet friends around the city centre. Café St Pierre, Costa Coffee, Starbucks and Caffè Nero are close by for coffee or a quick break between lectures. Restaurants around The King's Mile and Whitefriars provide further options when you want to eat out.
Canterbury also has several places where students can get some fresh air between busy study sessions. Westgate Gardens, the Great Stour River Walk and Dane John Gardens are all within reach of the property.
Students who prefer studying outside their accommodation can use Canterbury Library, the University of Kent Templeman Library or Canterbury Christ Church University Library, depending on their location and access requirements.

Weekly prices may vary depending on tenancy length and room availability.
The shared apartment options suit students who enjoy living with other people and using shared facilities. There are two-, three- and four-bedroom layouts, with some options including shared bathrooms.
This setup can work well for students who want their own bedroom while still having a shared environment where they can cook, relax and spend time with flatmates.
Students who want a little more freedom can opt for a studio. The Classic Studio and Classic Bigger Studio offer a private living solution, as opposed to the shared accommodation of an apartment.
Students who desire extra space to study, relax and manage their day-to-day routine might find the larger studio choice suitable.
Pavilion Court also has a number of one-bedroom apartment options available, including balcony apartments. They offer a more private living environment for students who want to live alone for the whole academic year.

If you want to be close to Canterbury’s universities but also want the city center and everyday shopping on your doorstep, then Pavilion Court is well worth considering. The neighbouring position of Canterbury West Railway Station makes it convenient for frequent commuting, while the bus routes nearby offer students another means to go around the city.
You also have an option as to how you live in the housing. If you like having flatmates, then shared apartments are best. Studios and one-bedroom apartments give more solitude. You get a variety of rooms and pricing options, so you can compare different configurations rather than being locked into one sort of housing.
The on-site Sainsbury's is another practical advantage. Picking up groceries does not require a separate trip, while Tesco Metro, Waitrose, M&S Foodhall and Co-op Food give you other options nearby.
Pavilion Court also has study rooms, a gym, common areas, a games room and laundry facilities within the residence. With electricity, gas, heating, water and Wi-Fi included in the rent, many of the regular costs associated with student living are already covered.
Pavilion Court Canterbury brings together several practical features that can make student life easier to manage. Shared apartments, studios and one-bedroom apartments give students different ways to approach their accommodation, while inclusive bills help keep regular living costs easier to track.
Its location is another major consideration. Canterbury's universities, railway stations, shops, supermarkets, cafés and green spaces are all within reasonable reach, with many destinations accessible on foot or by local transport.
For students attending the University of Kent, Canterbury Christ Church University or the University for the Creative Arts, Pavilion Court Canterbury student accommodation offers a well-connected place to live with useful facilities both inside the residence and around the city.

Pavilion Court is really great accommodation for UKC students. It's very close to town and just minutes away from Canterbury West train station. It's about 30 minutes to the UKC campus but there is a bus stop just down the road if you wanted to get the bus. The accommodation itself is kept in great condition and I love staying here. I needed accommodation last minute this year due to Covid-19 and Pavilion Court has been perfect for all my needs as well as being quite flexible in terms of tenancy length. The staff here are amazing too and will go above and beyond to help you with any issues but also with making you feel at home here.

Derek, Charlie, Sam, and other staffs are super nice! They can always handle all problems that we've had. Thank you for helping us and making us convenient when being here. My room is nice and wide. It's full of furniture except dining table and microwave. Anyway, we asked Charlie that if there is any microwave, then he gave us one!! He said "first come, first served" The cons for this apartment is there is no dining table (but another room types may have, idk), and the location of my room is above Sainbury's. If you easily wake up, don't choose the room that is above the store because they load things almost every morning (5.30-6.00), and it's quite loud. It will really make you upset if you just go to bed around 4 am because of the tons of assignments. I'm happy when staying here. Super friendly staffs, nice location (2 minute walking to city centre). The room is great, and costs much cheaper than a uni dorm. If you don't mind about those little drawbacks, don't hesitate to book this apartment! Worth to stay!

I moved into a Pavilion Court flat months ago from uni accommodation and I can say WOW it's absolutely beyond my expectations - my flat here in Pavilion Court is much better than the one I lived in before. Common areas are always maintained to be neat and tidy. My room has a very comfortable environment with little noise (for me this is the point as I sometimes have sleep disorder and need a quiet space, and fortunately I do have this space now). Online shopping enthusiasts can feel at ease about the delivery of parcels because they are well managed :) I think all of this is attributed to the hard work of Derek, Michelle and Sam. They are the most responsible and considerate people I have ever met. Anyway if you just want to live alone this is a nice place for you to focus on your study and enjoy personal interests. If you want to live with friends, it's also fabulous as various events are held here from time to time ^ ^

I stay in a Gold Studio at Pavilion Court and I'm so happy here, it's lovely. It's an ideal location for students as its right in town and only a 20/25 minute walk from UKC campus. The staff are incredibly attentive, friendly and welcoming; you form an actual relationship with them which is much better than having a landlord (I have experienced both). Also any maintenance issues are resolved immediately with no fuss at all. I would definitely recommend Pavilion Court to any students either looking to live alone in a studio or share communal spaces in a flat with others. I have had such an easy and enjoyable time here I will be sad to go :)

Pavilion Court is located in one of the most if not the most convenient places in Canterbury. It is near the Canterbury West train station, there is a Sainsburys right next to the building, it has a bus station right across the street and has various food and retail shops around. This is the second year I stay in Pavilion Court and there are numerous reasons for that: - As I mentioned above, the location is really convenient for everyone (especially for students). - The staff are friendly and willing to help us with any issues around the clock. - The facilities are always clean and there is a small gym where you can work out. - Derek, who is currently running the place, is one of the greatest people I have met in my life. Funny, smart, hardworking and always willing to help. Since I am graduating this year, it will be my last year in Pavilion Court. However, if I stayed in Canterbury for one more year, it would sure be at Pavilion Court.
