Thanapong Veenin
I recently stayed at St Leonard in Lancaster, and it was absolutely wonderful. The location was perfect — just a short walk from the city centre, big supermarket (like Sainbury), and public transport (at Cable Street). The room was cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed, from a comfortable bed to a modern kitchenette. However, it cannot open window that's the only drawback of it. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always available to offer local tips and ensure my stay was enjoyable. I especially appreciated the small touches, like complimentary snack and coffee, and the quick response to any requests. Overall, it felt like a home away from home. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to the UK and recommend it to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and great hospitality!

As an international student, living away from home is not easy, but St Leonard’s House truly feels like home. From the first day, I felt safe and welcomed. The staff are very kind and supportive, which means a lot when you are far from your family. I also appreciate the small thoughtful things, like freebies during events and sometimes breakfast at the reception, which really help on busy university mornings. The rooms and kitchen are well equipped with appliances like an oven, microwave, air fryer, and toaster, which is very helpful since buying these as an international student is expensive. The room has good storage, and the bed is very comfortable after long days at university. The Wi-Fi works well for studying, and safety is taken seriously with regular fire drills. The location is also perfect close to the city centre, supermarkets, and just a five-minute walk to the bus station. Overall, St Leonard’s House offers great comfort, support, and value for money.

Nice bedroom with high ceilings. Lots of wardrobe space, shelf space and under bed storage. Upon arriving, my room and bathroom were nice and clean. Really nice communal kitchen and games room downstairs to chill with friends. Lifts in every corner and access to the gym is included within the rent. Really close to Sainsbury’s and the bus station. The windows don't open but there is a ventilation system to ensure airflow. Overall it’s a great accom and im enjoying my stay here☺️
Xander Lowe
St Leonard’s house is a great place to live. Transitioning from campus into the city can be challenging and a big change, but the staff here are lovely and go out of their way to make sure everything is okay and that you’re comfortable. It is in a great location, being close to the bus station as well as sainsbury’s, and the rooms are spacious with nice en-suite bathrooms. The only downside is that the windows do not open so sometimes the rooms can get quite warm.
