If you’re looking for a high-energy student city, then Nottingham is the place. It blends a fascinating history with a modern, creative culture and a busy nightlife scene. It’s a place where student life spills into the city centre, from daytime cafés and study spots to evening hangouts in some of its most popular neighbourhoods.
We have several student accommodation options in Nottingham, with iQ Exchange, iQ Nelson Court, iQ Newland House and iQ Newtown House being the most central. The city hosts both Nottingham Trent University and the University of Nottingham, with Loughborough University also nearby, creating a big student community. When it comes to local hotspots, students gravitate towards areas like Hockley for independent cafés and street food, the Lace Market for bars and nightlife, and Old Market Square for events and meet-ups.
