Nottingham

Nottingham City is a great place when it comes to shopping and restaurants. There is a wide selection of types of food and cost. The uni of nottingham nights out are great with many different clubs and styles of music to choose from however the ticketing system can be quite annoying as it prevents a spontaneous night out which can be a perk of university life. Nottingham city feels as safe as a city possibly could but Lenton the student area couldn’t be further from safe. Overall, it is a great city but it’s advisable to not be alone in the dark.

Nottingham is great place for students to feel at home. It’s the perfect middle ground between a big city with the calm of a small village.

Lots of good restaurants/areas to go with good entertainment. Green areas such as wollaton park good for a nice sunny day

Nottingham is a lovely City. I’m originally from down south and have come to Nottingham for uni and I have a lot of love for this city. There are so many things to do including cinema, many places for food and drink, clubs, mini golf and many more! The city is vibrant and always full of action, over Christmas there was a beautiful Christmas market as well as ice skating which I loved! There are loads of clubs to go to, depending on what type of music you like their is a club for everyone from rock to house and techno you’re never stuck for somewhere to go. As well as this there is also a lovely sized shopping centre called the Victoria Centre, it has multiple shops such as Superdrug, JD sports, Topshop, John Lewis as well as Tesco, Millie’s Cookies and more. Everything is all so close together and easy to get to, I really can’t fault it! However, if you have trouble getting around there’s no need to worry because Nottingham also has amazing transport from trans to buses and trains there’s something to suit everyone’s needs.

Nottingham has a great night life and also has very god transport links if you live in the centre you can walk to almost anywhere as it is very compact

Nottingham is a great city for students because it really embraces different personalities and preferences, from urban nights out to retro and punk and it’s somehwere where you really get the opportunity to express and get to know yourself.

Variety of places to go out, loads of different types of restaurant and large shopping areas around the city.

Nights out are decent although not much variety compared to other city’s within the U.K., there is two shopping centres that offer lots of different shops for everyone, as well as the high street. Value for money is good although can be expensive at the weekends.

There are sooo many different things to do while in Nottingham, for example some of them things are cinema, shopping, ice skating, bars etc. Everything is at great price and defiantly something you don’t want to miss out on

Nottingham is an amazing place to live in due to the diversity and opportunities! There is so much to do in this city, such as check out cool bars or go to adventure golf. The nightlife here is full of choices as there are different clubs to suit your taste in music! There is so much to do and enjoy in Nottingham.

Nottingham is amazing! I have been on a fair few nights out in Nottingham and ive never had a bad one! There are many areas of Nottingham with places to have a few cold ones with the lads. The Corner House area is full of places to eat/drink such as Pizza Hut, TGI Fridays and many more. Nottingham has 2 massive shopping centres, Broadmarch and Victoria Centre, jam packed full of shops for people of any age.

There's something for everyone in Nottingham, from the shops and restaurants to the student night every night of the week at the wide range of clubs and bars. The city feels like a student city, with students at Uni and Trent, which gives us varsity events to look forward to every year. The public transport is 24/7 and it's easy to get where you want to go.

Nottingham is an amazing student city! There are plenty of bars with cheap drinks for students such as bierkeller (£2 pints) or Baa Bar shots bar. There is also night clubs open multiple nights a week with special student events such as crisis or pom pom night events. There are also plenty of places to eat as well! From annies burger shack to mowgali, you are bound to get value for money!

Nottingham is the best thought student city. Having 2 massive universities, colleges in City centre and a general live mood, its great for young adults to thrive on all sorts of food places, bars on every street, 3 huge night clubs plus many smaller ones...

very fun nights out here, and a lot of entertainment around town. there are many different kinds of restaruant s which provides a wide variation for dinner choices

Nottingham is one of those cities in which the locals never stray far - born and bred Notts'ers never seem to leave. And why would they? The compact city is easily accessible, with every shop and restaurant one can hope for. There are many pop-up and independent restaurants, so there's always somewhere new to eat, and a vast array of events to attend, so there's a night out for every kind of person: from Techno Events to Board Game Cafes, every student can find their niche. The city is fairly small, so any country bumpkin should have no problem orientating themselves, and there is a never-ending supply of taxis for those unexpected turn of events. There are groups of students on every corner at all times of day and night, giving the city a safe atmosphere. Overall, a great city to experience student life.

Nottingham is has small but packs a punch. The scene is very alt. With cool bars and a good music scene, all pretty cheap. Living in the centre is affordable so you don't have to pay for much transportation, it would probably take about 20 mins to walk from one side to the other. For fans of vintage shops, good coffee and music

Good number of shops, pubs, bars and things to do Good access to transport Lots of markets Too noisy Dirty due to students Lack of large supermarkets close to town centre Too many homeless people

Such a great city, nightlife is fantastic and so cheap (recommend PomPom and Ink) shopping centre and high street right next to Nottingham Trent Uni with hundreds of shops, not too spread out so easy to walk everywhere, also loads of really nice restaurants quirky cafes etc.

Nottingham has a city centre with a university and a lot of student accommodation in it, everything you need is within walking distance which is very convenient. Some of the night clubs can be quite far from one another albeit there is plenty of choices to cater to everybody needs with vibing atmosphere that lasts long into the early hours. The city centre is flooded with plenty of restaurants that adhere to the most acquired tastes, whether it's buffets, take aways or fine dining, the city centre spoils you for choice. Shopping can be very busy on weekends and around festive periods inevitably, but much calmer throughout the week. There is an Arboretum approximately 15 minutes walk from the city centre, literally next door to the university, this is very popular in the spring/summer times for picnics, walks, meeting up and hanging out. Nottingham definitely has a lot to offer, and a lot of hidden beauties, it's just not the city with the most to offer.

Good city, Theres a lot to do such as museums, art galleries, eateries etc. The nightlife is good though could do with more gay scene options. The castle is beautiful and there are lots of little alley ways with quirky bars. We also have a kitty cafe which is very cute. Notts is also close to Derbyshire and extensive countryside

Things to do in Nottingham is endless! There are many bars, a good selection of nightclubs and many places to eat during the day and night! Nottingham never fails to surprise me, living here has so far been a blast. I wouldn't have chosen anywhere else to be honest!

I have been in Nottingham for 2 years and I have to say it has been the best decision I've ever made, Its neither big or too tiny, its diverse and is basically run by students. Nights out are always fun and they have an abundance of restaurants to choose from

For pubs there's a wide choice, but aficionados may want to head to 'Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem', and down a brew in the oldest pub in England. The Robin Hood Beer Festival takes place every October, in the Castle grounds. Goose Fair: This doesn't actually involve geese any more (what a festival that must have been!) It's a massive funfair that visits once a year. Well worth getting along to. City of Caves: One for the history buffs. People have been digging caves into the hills of Nottingham for centuries, using them for homes and workplaces. Now protected by the council, it's possible to take a tour and discover this underground city. Getting about Bike: A recent poll found that Nottingham is the second best city in the UK to cycle in. Hooray! Tram: As well as a very efficient bus system, Nottingham has a set of trams around the city centre. It's very handy, but if you have a car DO NOT drive on the tramlines. There are signposts for Tram Only roads, but they can be missed if you're not on the lookout... It will be the most terrifying thing you will ever accidentally do. Plus they'll fine you. Everywhere else: The M1 runs up past Nottingham, connecting you to the rest of the country. There's also a good train network through the city.
