Overlooking the Meadows

The 251 rooms here offer a range of options, from rooms in shared flats (with or without your own private bathroom) to self-contained studios where all the facilities are just for you. Chalmers Street backs onto the Meadows, so you already have an enormous green space to enjoy. But this property also has a lovely private garden accessible via the ground floor common room. Inside, you’ll find a free pool table, sofas, a TV, and a secluded study area.
