Take your pick from studios and one bed flats. If you want to be a little more social and/or live with friends choose between our range of en-suite rooms (3-7 bedroom flats) or for a more budget friendly option we have Shared Apartment rooms with a shared bathroom (2-7 bedroom flats) which are the perfect solution, especially for group bookings where you can take over an entire flat without the hassle of splitting bills.

Northernhay House has all the city’s great shops, restaurants, bars, clubs, history, and culture within touching distance And that’s not to mention the beautiful Northernhay Gardens and Exeter Castle which are next door.

Looking for a bit of history on your doorstep? The Old Firehouse – once thought of as the inspiration for Exeter alumna J. K. Rowling’s fictional pub, The Leaky Cauldron but now famed for it’s amazing pizzas and Sunday roasts – is right opposite Northernhay House.

Getting to uni is simple too – with both Exeter campuses within easy reach.

I loved staying here! All three years of uni I have stayed at Host and there is nothing I can fault. I would recommend staying here if you are going to the university of Essex!

Stella

This is my 2nd year living here, I decided to rebook for my final year at university due to the great amenities and amazing staff members who made me feel at home and supported. Kelly, Nora and Ben are the most helpful people ever and are always available to help with anything or even just have a chat.

Lance
London

Staying at The Helix in Wembley Park has been an incredible experience! The accommodation is modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed for students. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with plenty of storage and a great study space. The communal areas are fantastic – perfect for relaxing or socializing with friends. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to public transport, shops, and restaurants. The staff are always friendly and helpful, making the place feel like a home away from home. The Helix truly provides a safe, convenient, and vibrant environment for students. I highly recommend it to anyone studying in London!

This could be the most comfort apartment in Southampton! I truly love the karaoke room and the balcony on the top floor. Amazing view and everything is new and modern.
