I have lived in both Northgate Studios and Northgate Point in Chester and have recently just left upon completion at University and I have had positive experiences in both! I'd like to give recognition to Isabel the receptionist as she is really lovely and welcoming and she always helps with whatever any person living in the buildings needs and is professional, including Mike the maintenance person who is also really friendly and helpful whenever a
job needs sorting in the rooms!
I have loved my time living at both buildings, it is very student friendly with your own amenities such as your own bathroom and kitchen which makes the student living experience even more positive and luxurious! As well as this, the buildings are very clean due to good maintenance as well as being modern.
I've had a great experience staying at Northgate studios. The building itself is well-maintained, and the
staff truly go above and beyond to make residents feel comfortable. A huge shoutout to Mike, the maintenance guy-he's always quick to respond to any issues and does his job with a smile. Whether it's a small repair or a bigger fix, he's reliable, professional, and genuinely
cares about keeping the place running smoothly. I also have to mention Izz at reception. She's the heart of the building! Always welcoming, friendly, and incredibly helpful, she makes checking in, handling inquiries, and day-to-day interactions an absolute
breeze. You can tell she takes pride in her work and is always ready to assist with anything you need.
Overall, the combination of a great facility and an amazing team makes this place a fantastic choice.
Highly recommend!
I stayed at studios as a fresher until the end of my undergrad because I couldn't find anywhere better in
Chester! Rooms are spacious with good views, decently sized kitchens and bathrooms. The reception is always open meaning your parcels get delivered safely and are easy to collect which is a big relief. The building wardens are friendly and do a great job at providing extra security, tackling any issues out of hours or on the weekends (which means never being locked out even if you lose your
keys)!
Staying in a studio can sometimes be isolating compared to a house or shared flat. However the brilliant staff throw a lot of fun events, like easter egg hunts and raffles, giving plenty of opportunities to socialise and meet other people in the building. Special mention to Isabel and Mike for making studios feel like a home away from home. Their patience, understanding and good vibes really made
my experience enjoyable!
