Chapter Old Street student accommodation is based on Paul Street in the heart of Shoreditch, a stone's throw from Old Street station and the tech and creative district around Silicon Roundabout. The EC2A postcode is Zone 1, around 27 minutes from Imperial and well positioned for City University, Bayes Business School, UAL and Goldsmiths. Old Street remains one of London's most energetic student neighbourhoods.
Rooms run from £289 — the entry-level twin studio — to £662 for a Diamond Studio, all on 10-month fully bills-inclusive contracts. The range of room types, including shared twin studios and large private loft studios, gives students flexibility on budget without sacrificing the location. No-visa-no-pay cover is standard.
On-site amenities include a gym, games room, 24-hour concierge and dedicated study spaces. Chapter Old Street consistently earns strong resident reviews for its community atmosphere, and the £289 entry price makes it one of the most competitive per-week rates for a Zone 1 Chapter building — especially attractive for students sharing rooms on a tighter budget.
