Nottingham is a decently sized and vibrant city. There’s a good mix of all the high street chains were used to and an array of vintage and independent shops. Cafes are great and the restaurants and bars are more than enough. Plenty of green space too.

Amazing city! The eating out options are good as there is many different parts of the city all within walking distance. There is a night out every day of the week! Plenty of high street and high end stores. Value for money is good as it’s a high end city which isn’t too expensive

Some of the best student nights out - cheap, varied and fun! Notts has everything a student could need.

The university city’s campus is embedded in the city centre that means you have access to loads of food places and shops, ranging from all levels of expensive. The city offers lots of things for everyone to do from all backgrounds and ages. There’s indoor trampolining for youngsters and Robin Hood trail for the outdoorsy type.

Great, cheap, safe nights out. Some decent Western and Asian food, has all the main high street shops and plenty of cinemas.

Nottingham is like a mini london. It has everything you could want and need in one place and great transport links too. It's well situated too. It has its own character still despite being very well developed and it's the culinary capital of the UK so you can eat anywhere, anything at any time. My favourite restaurant is Zaap, it's an authentic thai restaurant with street food on its menu. What can't go unmentioned is ocean. A student based club where every Trent Student goes in fancy dress, a unique experience you can't repeat anywhere else. Notts has been a great city to live in, small enough to get around easily and big enough to have lots of fun.

Really large city with a lively atmosphere and plenty of choices for food and shopping outlets. Not been on a night out here, but it sounds like a brilliant night out!

Nottingham has now become one of my favourite cities! The night life is unreal, there are so many different night clubs and bars which are suitable for every time of person. There are lots of different nice resteraunt, the only downside is that there aren’t many big supermarkets in the city. Moreover the tram system is really good, it’s really cheap and easy to get around the city centre. The shipping is also really good, there’s loads of different high street brands and then more up market brands in lace market. The value for money is also good, student nights are cheap and you get your money’s worth. Overall Nottingham is a really nice city and I glad I came here for university!

Nottingham May be considered in the middle of nowhere but I think that’s sellin it short. It has a surprisingly good food scene, there are many great bars and clubs for a night out, and there are fun events throughout the year like the Robin Hood beer festival and the Christmas market. Also, housing and food are quite cheap compared to other cities in England, so it’s a good value for the money. Parts of Nottingham retain the industrial, economically deprived feel, but the city centre and area around Uni Park and Jubilee campus are quite nice.

The transport system needs to be re-evaluated. You cannot use paper cash, but just coins or a “robin hood card”, sort of oyster; NFC not supported. There’s a night out for everyone at some point during the week. If it’s not Monday it shall be Sunday 7/7 deal. You’ll find your usual high street but don’t expect anything over the top, this is not Manchester size anyway. Food wise there’s everything you need, anytype of cuisine, was really impressed by it. Relatively inexpensive for the offer in show. Housing is cheap.

The location of the university buildings is great. Everything is close to each other and not far from the city centre! Definitely recommend NTU, especially if you want to be in a city which has great restaurants, nightlife and shopping!

Nottingham has a great range of gyms, shops and restaurants if you’re in the town centre. This is perfect if you’re going to Trent University City campus or even UoN main campus. The train from UoN main campus takes 15 mins straight to the city centre and is every 10 mins which is amazing. Loads of other things to offer in the city like bowling, ice skating, trampolining and the cinema. Nottingham has a great night life also.

Good night life, good food, so convenient. There are Chinese, Japanese, Indian, French, Italian food. Clubs all around town, pubs are the same. Supermarkets around the town, with a big shopping mall. And other shops around the town for new fashionable clothes

Lots of restaurants, clubs and a variety of shops from big name retailers to local independent. Lots of things to do as there is multiple cinemas, an ice rink where you can skate or watch an ice hockey game. Cheap local transport that can take you sites such as Wollaton Hall and other university campuses.

First, it is easy to find halal food here since I am a Muslim. There are variety of things to shop and there are many restaurants and cafes to eat with friends. There are even a lot of things to do such as ride a bicycle around the city, go to bars and pubs and visit museums. And what I like about Nottingham is sometimes they have festivals in the city. But what I love the most is sometime during the weekends there are many food booths in front of the Old Market Square where it’s just hard to resist not buying them. At night, the city centre is so lively where I can just hang out with friends. I also love the structure of the buildings which mixed of modern and vintage styles in one city. Most importantly, the transportation here is very accessible and convenient to get to anywhere.

I really think that Nottingham is a great location for students, especially the City Centre. Shopping & Food: throughout my 3 years living here the development of the shopping centre has improved dramatic e.g. New stores like Krispy Kremes, Las Igunanas, and other non-fast food restaurants that all offer great student discount (always ask for student discount most places do it including local stores). Also, there are various shops from mainstream and high end as well as thrift stores. Nights out are fun however, most clubs do not always cater toward updated "urban" music which I like, so there's a difficulty with that. Overall, Nottingham is a great place to study and live, almost like a miniature London.

A nice distance away from the city centre, cheap bus fare and easy to book ubers to and from the halls. A range of clubs, bars and restaurants in the city.

Nottingham is one of my favourite cities now. The nights out are really good fun and you can easily afford any of the clubs and drinks are reasonable prices too! The shops kns awesome with many independent shops as well as the big brand and all within walking distance!

Starting with Nottingham’s nightlife it is one of the best with 5 major nightclubs all in the centre of the city, there are also so many take aways for food after a night out or just for a cheeky take away. Two big shopping centres and many shops around the city centre means that there is always fun activities to do here.

Amazing city. I'm used to the hustle and bustle of London but have really enjoyed getting to know Nottingham! Great nightlife in the town centre plus an amazing Waterstones and loads of different cafes for lots of different people!
