Great Court, 78 Rolls Road, Bermondsey, London, SE1 5DU

Rolls Road sits in Bermondsey, a part of south-east London that has changed significantly over the past decade.

For transport, Bermondsey Underground Station is close to the property and sits on the Jubilee Line, which covers Westminster, Bond Street, Canary Wharf, and Stratford without requiring a change.

London Bridge Station is also accessible and serves both Thameslink and Southeastern mainline rail routes, plus additional Underground lines, making it one of the stronger transport hubs in south-east London. The Rolls Road bus corridor has several bus stops covering local routes across Bermondsey, Elephant and Castle, and beyond.

For groceries, Bermondsey has several supermarkets nearby. PureGym London Bermondsey is close for fitness alongside the on-site gym. Southwark Park is the nearest large green space, suitable for running, walking, or studying outside on good days.

John Harvard Library is nearby for academic resources outside the building. Surrey Quays Shopping Centre covers retail needs for anything beyond the local high street.

Room Types and Prices at Great Court Student Accommodation

Great Court Student Accommodation London offers four room types across two categories: en-suite rooms in shared flats and a self-contained studio apartment. En-suite rooms give you a private bathroom while sharing kitchen and communal areas with flatmates.

The Platinum Studio is fully self-contained, with a private bathroom and a compact kitchen, giving you complete independence for cooking and daily living. Every room across all types comes furnished with a comfortable bed, a dedicated study desk and chair, and ample storage.

The table below covers all four room types at Great Court London, with weekly prices and key features.

 

Room Type	Weekly Price	Bathroom	Kitchen	Key Feature
Bronze En Suite	£299	Private Ensuite	Shared	Entry-level ensuite (currently sold out)
Gold Skyline En Suite	£325	Private Ensuite	Shared	Private bathroom, dedicated study desk and storage
Platinum Plus En Suite	£330	Private Ensuite	Shared	Spacious, well-appointed ensuite room
Platinum Studio	£455	Private Ensuite	Private Kitchen	Fully self-contained with own kitchen facilities

The Bronze En Suite at £299 per week was the most affordable option at great court student accommodation, though it is currently sold out. It is worth checking with the House of Student team whether availability changes for your intake year. The Gold Skyline En Suite at £325 per week and the Platinum Plus En Suite at £330 per week are the current entry points for available en-suite rooms, with a small difference in space and appointment level between them. Both give you a private bathroom, a study area, and access to shared kitchen and living areas with flatmates.

The Platinum Studio at £455 per week is the only self-contained option at Great Court London and is suited to students who want to cook independently and have their living, studying, and sleeping in a single private unit.

The jump in price from the Platinum Plus En Suite reflects the addition of a private kitchen and the complete separation from shared communal spaces. Contact the House of Student team to confirm current availability and live pricing for your intake year before making a booking.

 

What Is Included in the Rent at Great Court London?

Great Court London takes an all-inclusive approach to rent. Every weekly payment covers all essential household bills, so there are no separate utility accounts to set up and no bill-splitting arrangements to manage with flatmates.

The table below sets out everything included in the rent at great court student accommodation.

 

Included	Details
Water	All water usage covered
Heating	Heating costs included throughout the tenancy
Gas	Gas usage covered within the rent
Wi-Fi	High-speed internet throughout the building

Having water, heating, gas, and Wi-Fi all rolled into one weekly payment removes the most common source of friction in shared student living, which is disagreements over utility bills and usage.

You know exactly what you are paying each week from day one of your tenancy, which makes planning your budget for food, transport, and social activities considerably easier. The all-inclusive structure also removes the admin of contacting utility providers, setting up accounts, and reading meters before you move in.

 

Facilities at Great Court London

Great court student accommodation london provides a broad set of on-site facilities covering fitness, social spaces, security, and daily practicalities. The cinema room, games room, and club lounge give residents three distinct social spaces beyond a standard common room, which is more variety than most student properties offer. The gym means you do not need a separate fitness membership to stay active.

On-site laundry removes the need to find a laundrette in Bermondsey. The bike storage and bike service together are a thoughtful combination, covering both secure parking for your bicycle and basic maintenance, which is more useful than storage alone for students who cycle regularly.

The table below gives a full overview of all facilities at Great Court London.

 

Facility	Details
Lounge Area	Communal space for relaxing and socialising
Club Lounge	Styled social space for residents
Games Room	Recreational space for group activities
Cinema Room	Dedicated room for film screenings
Gym	On-site fitness area available to all residents
On-Site Laundry	Washing and drying machines within the building
Bike Storage	Secure storage for bicycles
Bike Service	On-site bicycle maintenance service
CCTV	Camera coverage across the property throughout
On-Site Security	Security presence at the building
On-Site Management	Dedicated team managing day-to-day operations

The club lounge is a step above a standard common room in terms of finish and atmosphere, giving residents a more social venue for evenings and downtime. The cinema room suits group film nights and is a facility that many student properties list but few actually provide in a dedicated, properly equipped space. The bike service alongside bike storage is worth noting specifically, because students who use their bike daily for commuting to campus need basic maintenance access throughout the year, not just somewhere to leave the bike. Having both on site removes a practical barrier to cycling as a primary transport option from this address.

 

Universities Near Great Court London

Great court student accommodation London sits in Bermondsey on the Jubilee Line, which gives you direct Underground access to a broad range of university campuses without needing to change trains. London Bridge Station adds further rail connections for campuses in north and central London.

The universities listed in the original property information are further out than the nearest campuses from Bermondsey, so the Jubilee Line and London Bridge connections are the key practical factor for university access from this address.

The table below covers the universities listed near Great Court London, with distances from the property.

 

University or College	Campus	Distance
Westminster Kingsway College	Victoria Centre	3.61 miles
York St John University	London Campus	3.80 miles
Westminster Kingsway College	Soho Centre	4.38 miles
Westminster Kingsway College	Main Campus	4.44 miles
Westminster Kingsway College	Regent's Park Centre	5.64 miles
Heriot-Watt University	London Campus	5.93 miles

The distances to the listed universities reflect Great Court's position in the south-east of the city, which is further from the main cluster of central London universities than properties in zones one and two. That said, the Jubilee Line from Bermondsey station is one of the fastest Underground routes into central London. Southwark, Waterloo, Westminster, and Green Park are all reachable in under 15 minutes from Bermondsey, which covers a wide range of universities and colleges not listed in the table above but accessible on the same line. London Bridge station adds Thameslink connections to Farringdon, City Thameslink, and Blackfriars, covering campuses in the EC and WC postcodes efficiently.

Students considering Great Court London who attend institutions like King's College London, LSE, UCL, or any other central London university should map the Jubilee Line journey from Bermondsey to their nearest station before committing. The train journey times are often shorter than the mile-based distance suggests, which is a practical point that pure distance comparisons can underplay.
