Staying in our short-stay accommodation

You don’t have to miss out on social life as a commuter student, or worry about making that last train home. You can book short-stay accommodation on campus and stay in one of our Northfield residences.

Whether you’d like to stay for the whole of Freshers’ Week or simply need a place to recharge after a day of studying, our short-stay accommodation gives you the flexibility to make the most of student life without the stress of travelling home.

At £55 per night, our rooms offer an affordable and convenient way to stay on campus.

Why stay with us?

Reasons you might want to stay with us include:

  • attending a social event or society meet-up in the evening
  • having an early class the following morning
  • making the most of Freshers’ week
  • avoiding travel delays before an early exam
  • finishing an assignment in the library
  • recharging after a day of studying
  • exploring Brighton and the surrounding area.

What’s included in your stay

What you’ll get:

  • an en-suite room in one of our eight-room Northfield flats
  • a spacious shared kitchen
  • bedding and towels.

What you’ll need to bring:

  • toiletries
  • cooking utensils
  • anything else you might need during your stay.

Food on campus

Rather than bringing your own cooking utensils, we’d suggest you choose from our wide range of affordable food options across campus, including our Sussex Saver hot lunches and breakfasts in Eat Central.

If you choose to stay during the exam period, enjoy our free breakfasts to help fuel those long study days.
