Royal Holloway Accomodation

Hi,

I'm at a loss regarding which accomodation is best for a budget option. By the looks of it, excluding shared rooms and lesser contracts, the cheapest option is Penrose but the opinions about Penrose Court are not favourable. After that it is a toss up between Highfields, Founders and Runnymede. Can anyone suggest the best option out of these 4?

TLDR - Help me choose between Penrose, Highfields, Founders and Runnymede.
- Is Penrose worth the money saved or is it just too bad?
- Your opinions on the other 3 options regarding the actual accomodation, shared facilities and catering.
- Student life, distance from campus ect.

Hello,

You can chat to current Royal Holloway students about their experiences and recommendations on student accommodation here: https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/chat/

I hope this helps you decide!
