University Student hall

Which one is better student hall st George's or sherfield?at reading uni.. Reading Uk

Hey @Sakshi rajpura

Oooh, tough question - both are good for different reasons! Honestly, it really depends what you're looking for as an individual that will make either one better to you personally, as different people will have different priorities in what's most important for them.

Both are located quite close to the Sportspark gym, however, Sherfield is ever so slightly further from the centre of campus, I would personally estimate, and is a bit more 'out of the way' so to speak, as St George's is, although still off campus, very visible and accessible from the immediate campus grounds (but there's not too much in it!). Sherfield is typically one of the quieter halls due to its location I think, but definitely isn't isolated.

What are your preferences in terms of type of room (e.g. number of flatmates, loudness, ensuite/shared bathroom, etc) and what is most important to you when looking for somewhere to live? (Think about what you'd rather be close to and what sort of lifestyle you want around you,etc) This may help with giving advice from our perspective, but also help you think about what you are looking for and make your decision a bit easier.

Hope this helps - let us know your preferences and we may be able to give a bit more helpful advice! Good luck with choosing!!

Thank you for such an elaborated response, my concerns involve silverfish which i have seen in the previous reviews and how will the infrastructure be. I am finding it difficult to know the amount of students staying on a single floor. Also how far is the laundry area and what are facilites for drying the clothes. Looking forward for your response. thanks in advance
