Petros Court is the newest student accommodation owned by the university. The rooms are spacious and clean, fitted carpets look brand new even though they have 3+ years now and the furniture is functional. The position is perfect, really close to the shops, close to the University and to all the clubs, so you don’t even need to take a cab to return home. Round the corner from one of the stations which makes it comfortable if you need to take the train too. Staff is friendly and the place is very secure. However, there should be more communal space. Apart from the tables outside, where you cannot smoke, there is nowhere else to chill with friends. Right next door, Palomon Court has games rooms, a cinema a gym and more, so you can invite friends over and have a good time. The university should invest more into this because it’s part of the University experience.
Petros court is a nice accomodation, the outside presentation is very appealing, however, it is a bit overrated for the price I m paying, I have to still pay for washing and the guest rules are too strict.
The accommodation is very modern with good room sizes and flats with as little as 3 rooms. I like the security of the complex as it has secure gates and 24 hour guards. I would say it is a little expensive however and I ended up falling out with my flat mates so not the best memories.
Good location in central Canterbury, right by the local station (2mins) Facilities are ok A good night life, clubs really close Room ok but no heating
Petros Court has to be one of the safest accommodations in Canterbury. With the security gates that are monitored by staff 24/7 you feel very safe and looked after. Petros is the newest accommodation to be built and you can tell once inside. The rooms are spacious wel equipped. The onsuite is good for size. Shower works well - just a bit small. With a double bed provided and a big desk space. It made me feel comfortable and secure living here.
Had a great year first year in my accommodation and will miss it, the room was spacious with a comfortable bed and a large work area. The kitchen and lounge area was a good size for all three of us with all equipment provided for us. The location was the best part of this accommodation being only a 3 minute walk to the centre of Canterbury, therefore easy access to do food shopping.Overall I enjoyed staying here and would recommend to anyone, however I feel the price is a bit steep and not justified.
Located in a great area, only 5 minute walk to the centre of Canterbury. The accommodation itself is nice with spacious rooms and a modern kitchen with modern appliances. I would recommed to a friend. However it is somewhat hard to justify the price of the accommodation as it is too high in my opinion.
Close to everything Good big room Kitchen is basically broken Annoying gate to get in Good night life but pricey £167 per week for rent but not bad for the room you get
Lovely rooms but awfully expensive for student accommodation. 24 hour security gives peace of mind but there are strict rules on visitors which can ruin part of the Uni experience.
location - not bad. pretty close to chem and library and not far from town. new building, very hot though.
The whole establishment is very hot and constantly the heating is on. It’s very modern although there isn’t many communal areas. The front room and kitchen are linked. The hallway to get into your flat is always dirty, the lift too. 24 hour security although they treat us like children and undermine us.
Perfect location. Directly behind the library, a short walk to town and the university, and near the main club. The rooms are really nice and spacious, with good ensuite facilities and desk/storage space. Possibly needs more general communal areas.
The location of the halls was reasonably good. It was seconds away from the library, a few minutes from the town centre and a few minutes from the main club and train station. The only issue was that it was a 15-20 minute walk to main campus. The quality of the halls was good, with it being a fairly new build, and the security were fantastic - really kind and supportive but also great at dealing with issues surrounding sound and unwanted guests. The WiFi took a long time to be installed in rooms, causing a lot of issues surrounding university work.
Great location, a stone throw away from the town centre of Canterbury. The accommodation is very modern and nice to live in with good kitchen facilities and spacious room what have comfortable beds. The only downside is the price but overall it's a great accommodation to live in and would recommend to to future students.
