Sheffield

Good prices, big city centre, lots of different types of entertainment: nights out, restaurants (Leopold square/ London road), City hall, Town hall, parks: Devonshire Green/ Botanical gardens, festivals: Tramlines, gyms, shopping: Meadowhall, the Moor. PERFECT CITY TO LIVE IN WITH HAPPY PEOPLE

Great city with plenty to do! The city is not too big and there's a nice community feel to the place. Good nightlife, beautiful surrounding areas (Peak District) and great people!

Whether it's a night out that won't ruin your wallet's chances of survival, the crisp and quiet air of the peak district being just a short bus ride away or if you're just a little bit edgy, Sheffield has something for you. Both Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Sheffield are known for their respective charms and qualities, but the city itself is what'll mold you and your time here. The nightlife is decent, not Leeds level, but it'll do! With meadowhall just a bus or a tram away, all your shopping needs are fulfilled, with a newly regenerated moor being worked on to bring even more of your favourite high street amenities to the city centre. Whilst some look at Sheffield as a diet version of other larger cities, you'll have to immerse yourself within the friendly atmosphere and really explore to find the lowkey hidden gems that you came for.

Sheffield is one of the best student cities in the UK. With it’s diversity in cultures, people, and languages it’s very difficult for a student not to fit in. Many people know Sheffield for being extremely friendly with fantastic night life. There are many public transport systems that take you directly to places of interest, such as the town centre, Peace Gardens, Meadowhall etc. Many things are also in walking distance too so accessing these places is not challenging. The list of things to do in Sheffield is endless so it’s the perfect city for people who are coming to Shefield to get the full “student experience”.

Sheffield is the perfect location to study. Everything is right on your doorstep that could possibly need. Moor market has just been updated with a cinema, eating places and a huge Primark. Meadowhall shopping centre is just a few minutes on the train at less than £3 for a return too. There are loads of nightclubs and every night there is somewhere to go with drinks costing from £1. Sheffield is also just a really nice looking city with lots of green spaces to sit in the sunshine. I honestly can't think of anything it's missing!

The location is brilliant. People think Sheffield is a big city that is hard to get around but everything you need is within a 2 mile radius. Plenty of nightclubs, bars and music venues to suit everyone. Lots of supermarkets and takeaways nearby to get food. Transport links to bramall lane, the o2, the lead mill etc mean you can get around easily and always find something to do. Mostly good value for money as most things are reasonably priced.

The location of this university is fantastic. I believe the city is not too small but not too big. It has a great central area of shops. Fantastic areas of bars. The bars have a variety of different types so there something for everyone. The transport links are fantastic and everywhere is well connected.

It's such a great location to go to uni - right next to the peak district, loads of places round here to live so whatever your price range you'll find somewhere. West Street is a great base for a night out and the two universities are quite near each other so you can live with mates from the other uni.

Great city. A very diverse nightlife too. From chain clubs, to independant cocktail bars, to the more niche speakeasy. Theres alot of activism and politics in this city, as well as alot of creativity. Its definitely a little different to your average northern city, and alot hillier and cheaper.

Sheffield is an amazing place. The perfect mix of nature and the city. There are loads of bars, clubs for the night and then there are loads of parks and shops and things to go to during the day as well as pubs to go for lunch. Smoke BBQ and cosmos are great restaurants in the city centre. The transport is so good as well as it is a short tram ride to get to Meadowhall. It also only costs £4 for a day tram ride all over Sheffield.

Location is great, easy to get around the city with loads of transport and cheaper for students. The nightlife at Sheffield is rather cheap especially in comparison with larger cities with lots of choice and offers available!!

Sheffield offers great nights out, in the form of SU nights at University of Sheffield, the Harley, and the infamous Beirkeller. An evening out for great food would be peddlers markets, a monthly occurrence of great local food stalls and live music in and edgy warehouse setting. Sheffield also has lots to offer in the outdoor department with the peaks on its doorstep and it being well know for it rock climbing both inside and out.

Transport - mostly cheap, £1 singles in the buses but teams are pretty expensive and sometimes needed for exams Nights out are ridiculously cheap 90p Bombs and £1 singles a lot of clubs too Shopping is okay in centre but not too many shops, Meadowhall is pretty good but needs public transport from the city A lot of places to eat out all over the place too.

Sheffield is a small and friendly city. The university is located primarily just outside the city centre but close to accommodation within the student village and other housing areas. Sheffield provides all the facilities of a larger city without the daunting and unsafe feeling of larger cities

Good choice of nights out, medowhall is great for shopping. The city is huge with different areas for different interests.

Really good uni in South Yorkshire. Very good links to basically anywhere via bus or train. It is net to the train station and you can be in London within 2 hours 30 minutes!

I chose my accomodation in the city centre and it's the best choice I've made! Leadmill is great for location as it's only a 2 minute walk to the uni, there's loads of local food shops and most of all all the club's are close so you're not paying taxi fares all the time! The uni itself is also in a great location as all the buildings are linked together and they're simple to get around!

Great everything you need is here. Clubs food bars and it's a great night out clubs open up until 6 in the morning. Would highly recommend.

Sheffield is a good city to study in as it’s not too big, but also not too small. As an environmental student it is ideal as it is close to the Peak District National Park and there are lots of green spaces within the city. The central shopping area is a little bit mismatched and has bits everywhere, but the distribution and areas where the bars are located are good. Sheffield has good entertainment venues like the light cinema and the leadmill. I recently completed an escape room in Sheffield which is good fun too and recommended. I recommend Sheffield for anyone moving from a town to university.

The best thing about Sheffield is the value for money! You can really enjoy a social life without it costing a fortune. The uni is bang in the centre of the city and because there are two unis it really is run by students.

Sheffield has really good travel connections to London, Leeds and Manchester! And it’s super easy to get out to the peaks for a nice walk and Sunday lunch. It’s such a vibrant student city!!

Sheffield offers both city life and the opportunity to go outdoors and explore the peaks. It’s vibrant hubs across the city such as kelham island and shadow vale promote independent cafes and shops, creating a community feel within the city. It’s a student paradise with great nightlife and loss of places to eat and drink without the expensive price tags.

Absolutely love the city. You see some hysterical news reports about attacks but in reality they're targeted band not a threat to students. Plenty of things to do and see and the club scene is amazing, there's definitely something for everyone
