Student accommodation in Manchester

There are currently 57 studios available in student residences in Manchester from £1.239 per month, on 44 or 51-week tenancies for the 2026/27 academic year. All are private studios with their own bathroom and kitchen, with wifi, bills and communal areas included, and can be booked online with no UK guarantor required.

Manchester is the biggest student city in the north of England: nearly 100,000 students across the University of Manchester, MMU and Salford, and a cultural life that runs from the musical heritage of the Smiths and Oasis to the Northern Quarter. Our residences sit on the Oxford Road university corridor — the spine connecting the campuses to the city centre — so you'll walk to lectures and go out without depending on the night bus.

Frequently asked questions

How much does student accommodation cost in Manchester?

In Manchester, residence studios start at £1.239 per month for the 2026/27 academic year, with wifi, bills and communal areas included. The exact price depends on studio size, tenancy length (44 or 51 weeks) and your payment plan — paying for the year upfront is always cheaper than instalments.

Are the residences in Manchester well located?

Yes. In Manchester the nearest residence is just a 9-minute walk from University of Manchester, and every other campus, with real travel times, is in the distance table on this page.

Do I need a UK guarantor to book?

No. Unlike the UK private rental market, which usually requires a UK-based guarantor, student residences let you book by paying upfront or in instalments with no guarantor at all. It's one of the biggest advantages for international students.

What does the price include?

All the essentials: wifi, water, electricity and heating, plus the building's communal areas (gym, study rooms, cinema or laundry depending on the residence). No separate bills, no service charges.

When does the academic year start and when should I book?

The 2026/27 academic year starts in September. Standard tenancies run 44 weeks (September to July) or 51 weeks (full year), and rooms sell out between spring and late summer — the earlier you book, the more studio types you'll have to choose from.
