Features

Vita Student Richmond House is an 11-storey building with 255 beds in Studio rooms with en-suite kitchens and bathrooms. Each studio has a refrigerator, separate wet and dry bathrooms, and furnishings such as desks, chairs, wardrobes, mirrors, beds and mattresses.

The hostel also organises social activities regularly, making it easier for students to meet new friends and experience life in the UK so that they can integrate into local life in the UK faster. It is worth mentioning that Vita Student Richmond House is the only student residence in the UK that offers Career Hub and Start-Up.

Location and What's Hot?

Vita Student Richmond House is located between River Test and River Itchen, and some of the flats overlook Southampton's docks. Here, you can explore the water's edge from a quiet café or enjoy the buzz of the harbour bars before watching an outdoor movie in Highlands Park.

 

There is a supermarket, Londis, within a 5-minute walk of the hostel, making it easy to get your daily shopping done. Oxford Street, with its many restaurants, is just a 5-minute walk away, and the city centre offers a wide range of shopping malls for everyday shopping, as well as a wide selection of Chinese and other international restaurants. The city centre is also home to many historic buildings and various museums and art galleries, making it a great place to spend some time.

 

Transport

It needs a 15-minute walk from Vita Student Richmond House to Southampton Solent Campus University, 25 minutes by bus to the University of Southampton Avenue Campus, and 38 minutes by bus to the University of Southampton Highfield Campus. Vita Student Richmond House has a bus stop right outside the door, and the train station is a 20-minute walk from the house or less than 10 minutes by taxi.

How to pay rent?

The apartment supports logging in to the account, using the TransferMate platform that cooperates with the apartment to pay, or paying by bank wire transfer. 1. To use the TransferMate platform to pay, please log in to your apartment personal account, then select Pay Now on the Booking interface to jump to the TransferMate platform payment interface, then please fill in the relevant information and complete the payment. Please note that the payment mode is that you pay to the TransferMate platform, and then pay to VITA STUDENT after the TransferMate platform receives the student's payment.
