London Homestays offers a practical and financially savvy accommodation option for Ravensbourne University students. Rather than rushing into expensive year-long contracts for student halls, homestay experience provides significant cost savings and flexibility while you find your feet in London.
As a British Council registered provider since 2015, all London Homestay hosts undergo rigorous vetting including detailed home inspections, background checks, and regular quality assessments. London Homestays has established itself as one of the UK's leading accommodation providers since 2007, with consistently excellent feedback from students across prestigious universities and educational institutions.
The Financial Reality Traditional student halls in central London can cost between £300-£400 per week - that's potentially £15,600-£20,800 for a year's contract before you've even bought your first textbook! Homestay options offer much more affordable weekly rates, potentially saving you thousands of pounds while giving you the flexibility to make informed decisions about your longer-term accommodation.
Flexibility When You Need It Most London Homestays offer flexible booking options that adapt to your needs - stay for a few weeks, a semester, or if you enjoy the experience, extend for longer periods up to a full academic year.
This means you can:
- Start with a shorter homestay commitment
- Take time to get to know London and make friends
- Find like-minded people for potential house sharing
- Make an informed decision about your next move without being locked into an expensive year-long contract
Find Your Perfect Match Diverse hosts include families, individuals, and professionals, allowing you to be matched with the ideal home environment for your preferences. Choose from single, double, or twin rooms with meal plan options including bed & breakfast, half board, or self-catering - all with inclusive utilities and WiFi. If you value your independence, there are plenty of hosts who offer self-catering options and understand that students want their own space.
Convenient Locations Our hosts are located throughout London with excellent access to public transport. Average travel time to Ravensbourne University is typically 15-45 minutes, with many hosts situated in Greenwich, Blackheath, Lewisham and surrounding areas. Your commute preferences will be carefully considered when matching you with a host.
