I had a remarkable experience during my final academic year at SOAS while living at Smart Student Accommodation. After a year-long stay, I can confidently say this is one of the best choices for international students in London. From the moment you step into the building, a beautifully preserved historical structure with more than a century of history, once a textile spinning company—you’re struck by its charm. The spiral wooden staircase and original machinery on display evoke a sense of wonder, transporting you back to the late-Victorian era. I stayed in a shared double flat, where I shared the kitchen and bathroom with a designated roommate. While compact, the space was practical for daily cooking, studying, and relaxing. What I appreciated most was the quiet atmosphere—it offered a peaceful retreat, especially compared to my previous stays near King’s Cross and a busy road in Acton. The quiet enabled me to fully focus on my studies, complete coursework, and ultimately submit my dissertation. I also became more attuned to the changing seasons! From the intense summer heat to the falling maple leaves of autumn, the silent darkness of winter reflected by glowing snow, and the reawakening of nature in spring. Observing this natural rhythm from my window was a quiet privilege that deepened my connection to the environment and supported my academic journey. While there were a few drawbacks: such as a strict stay-over policy, outdated and pricey laundry machines, and limited social opportunities within the residence. Smart still stands out as an excellent private accommodation near central London, offering competitive pricing, reliable security, and well-maintained facilities. Features like commonroom TVs with PS5s, a free-to-use pool table, and the constant presence of supportive staff like Zoe, Johan, and Aqib and many more made my stay welcoming and memorable. I leave here with pride and deep gratitude, and I would highly recommend Smart Student Accommodation to anyone seeking a quiet, safe, and well-organised place to live in London. It was one of the best decisions I made during my three years of study in the city. Thank you so much Smart Student Accommodation and its awesome teams!Posted on Capybara MuncherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 在SOAS度过最后一个学术年期间,我有幸入住了 Smart Student Accommodation,并度过了一段非常美好的时光。经过一年的居住,我可以自信地说,这里是伦敦最适合国际学生的住宿选择之一。 从踏入这栋历史悠久的大楼开始,便能感受到它独特的魅力。这座建筑已有一百多年历史,前身是一家纺织纺纱工厂,如今被改建为学生宿舍。楼内的螺旋木楼梯和保留下来的老式机械令人印象深刻,仿佛带人穿越回维多利亚时代。 我住在一间双人合住房中,与一位指定室友共用厨房和浴室。房间虽不大,但足以应付日常烹饪、学习和休息。最让我欣赏的是这里安静的居住环境——与我曾经在国王十字和Acton主干道旁的嘈杂居住经历相比,这里如同一片宁静的避风港。我得以专注学习,顺利完成课程作业并提交了毕业论文。居住期间,我也逐渐感受到四季的变化:酷暑的夏天、落叶的秋日、昏暗寂静的冬季,以及万物复苏的春天。从房间望出窗外,观察自然的更迭,是一种静谧而难得的体验,也陪伴我走过了学术旅程中最重要的一年。 当然,这里也有一些不足之处,例如访客留宿政策较为严格、洗衣机老旧且价格偏高、住宿内部的社交机会有限等。但总体而言,Smart依然是一处极具性价比的伦敦市中心私营学生住宿,提供良好的安全保障、完善的公共设施以及整洁有序的生活环境。房间内配备大屏电视与PS5等设备,公共休息区还有免费使用的台球桌,这在普通学生宿舍中是非常少见的。此外,Zoe、Johan、Aqib等工作人员始终亲切热情、乐于助人,让我感受到家的温暖。 如今即将离开,我心中满是自豪与感激。若你正在寻找一个安静、安全、设施齐全、价格合理的学生住宿,Smart Student Accommodation将是非常值得考虑的选择。这是我在伦敦三年学习生活中做出的最正确的决定之一,也将是我永远不会忘却的回忆。Posted on Łukasz GałkaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Smart Student accommodation is amazing. I would highly recommend then to anyone looking for atudent accommodation in this area. My daughter was well looked after and cared for which as a parent is all you can ask for. Zoe and Jahan are the loveliest people and supported my daughter when she needed it. She will miss them loads. I cant thank them enough.Posted on SharonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend this wonderful student accommodation. The building is beautiful with it's own history, it's well maintained and very clean. The rooms are well equipped and bright. It's location is perfect for our Daughter with a few minutes walk to where she needs to be. The building is manned 24/7 with security staff which as a parent is so reassuring. One of the things that stand out a mile are the staff. Since first finding this place, I can honestly say that Zoe has been there from day one, all the way through to meeting her in person on moving our Daughter in. Zoe is the most helpful, kind supportive and professional person ever! Also a big shout out to Aqib who is also such a kind and helpful person with impeccable manners. Our Daughter has settled so well here and in her words said it's like being at home just without us being there 😊 It's family run accommodation and it shows, there's genuine care and support for the students that live there. A super safe and smashing place to stay. 🌟
