One of the best places to leave! It has very good places to go out, eat and things to visit. I highly recommend it!??

Good city, very expensive. Find the right places and it's okay though. Choose to cycle, walk or take the bus - the tube is easy but expensive.

Amazing but so expensive. Student experience is unrivalled but be prepared to work or borrow a lot of money from mum!

Nights out are fun, you will have a great number of choices for each night. The food isn’t that good if you go to mainstream restaurants and the quality of groceries are really bad aswell, but being in a big city it is easy to find alternatives. Every thing here is juste so expensive, transport and food especially.

Obviously London is expensive, but very worth it! Such an exciting place to live, new things opening up everywhere and beautiful places to visit.

Wonderful location, in the heart of London (opposite to Baker Street station) with plenty of restaurants, bars, pubs and supermarkets around. Also very good location from a shopping perspective: few minutes by bus from Selfridges and Oxford Street. Very close to Sherlock Holmes’ Museum and Regent’s Park.

I absolutely love the location of Queen Mary as I did not have to move out of London. The main Mile End campus is great as everything is available on campus or it is very close. There are man restaurants and fast food places nearby which is great for students on a budget. The best thing is there is a cheekkyyy Nandos near the uni which any London student would recommend. As Queen Mary is situated near central, there is an endless list of things to do. Westfield is one central line stop away which is great as you could spend time there during long gaps between lectures.

London obviously has everything you could possibly need. New Cross has very little other than a university and some necessary amenities but has good connections to central London giving you everything you need.

London is a great city! We have foods, nightlife, and transport is just convenient. You can tour around like a tourist, or spend your night at a local bar like the Brits.

Nights out: really fun, but can be quite expensive - important to pre-drink at home/accommodation Food: again really good, but can be quite expensive Shopping, things to do: loads of shops and tourist attractions including parks, palaces, museums, art galleries etc. Value for money: really good experience if you make the most of it

I chose this uni because it has everything that I needed, the decision was easy to make and everything fell into place like it fit perfectly.

Queen Mary is 5 minutes from the Olympic village, 10 minutes from Shoreditch and opposite Victoria Park and its canal. There are pubs all along Mile end road which make it the great spot for pub crawls, supermarkets and cheap food options nearby also transport to any part of London.

London is such a great place at this time in your life. Everything is here in one (rather large) place and if you’re not bothered about seeing hundreds of people everywhere each day then London is for you. Personally I need a break from it after a term but I wouldn’t want to be studying anywhere else right now. Just be prepared for how expensive it will be - travel, rent, food, which might take a bit of getting used to as there’s not much way around it. But in terms of things to do, there’s always so much on and for students it’s one of the best times to get cheaper tickets for shows and concerts. Getting bored in London is very hard to do! Once you live a bit in London it will very soon feel like a great place to be and I recommend everyone to try it out once!

In the bustling area of South Kensington, you're only a few minutes walk away from the Royal Albert Hall, Hyde Park, the Natural History Museum, the Science Museum, and the V&A. There are loads of great places to eat around there too (di Mario's being a personal favourite!), and the transport links (tube and bus) are great. Our union is right over the road from the university too, as are quite a few halls, which is even better!

Being in the capital city is an amazing experience. Good transport and every type of club, restaurant and entertainment you can think of, all in walking distance

For the student who is not seeking the best nightlife in London then Royal Holloway is perfect. Yet if you want your uni experience to be defined by getting hammered on nights out, then maybe Holloway isn't the uni of your dreams.

There are always loads available and to do for every sort of person and interest. The transport services are good but can get expensive and long. It gets very expensive the closer you get to Central.

Attending a University in the heart of London is an amazing experience. Not only do you get to see famous landmarks and sites on a daily basis, but you get to be explore London in whatever way you want to. There is always something for everyone, whether it is bars, restaurants or shopping. London has it all. On many occasions after a day of lectures or studying have me and some fellow students gone for a wonder to see which new bar or restaurant we can find.
