An amazing place to be, not just the building the staff are made of caring and loving people who understands you and help in anyway they can. If you are lucky you get a job 😂 too right here in the building. Parties and events often happens too. Amazing!!🤩

I had the pleasure of living at Stanhope House for three years, and it was truly one of the best experiences I could have hoped for. Aside from the brief period when construction was taking place which, while slightly inconvenient at the time, was handled professionally my time there both before and during those works was nothing short of amazing. My room was perfect, well-equipped, and had everything I needed to feel comfortable and at home. The location on Commercial Road was an incredible advantage, with everything I could possibly need close by shops, transport links, and local amenities all within easy reach. Being so close to my university made daily life even more convenient and stress-free. However, what truly set my experience apart was not just the facilities or the location, but the incredible team who work there. The staff were always attentive, friendly, and proactive in ensuring everything was running smoothly. Their professionalism, warmth, and willingness to help made me feel valued and well cared for throughout my stay. If I had the opportunity, I would gladly spend another three years here. I am deeply grateful to the entire Stanhope House team for making my time there so memorable, comfortable, and enjoyable. Thank you for everything you turned what could have been just a place to live into a genuine home. Rm.29

Hi there Kayleigh, can I get an update on my refund issue? I’ve been emailing for quite a number of days Thank you.
Andrea Dalton
Whilst a promising tour round last year before moving in, it since went down hill. Whilst there, the room had to be cleaned on arrival, issues took a while to fix, and we did not encounter the friendly service mentioned in other reviews. On leaving, after meticulously cleaning the room as much as of the kitchen as we could - They kept our deposit and charged more money; when we left our room in a better state than we found it. They have not replied to our complaint with accompanying evidence to back it up, and just sent a demanding email for the outstanding debt, and ignored my reply to that.
