Hi,

I was at a conference lately where somebody recommended that if i was ever to move to London then i should move into the equivalent of "student halls of residence" for young professionals.

Does anybody know the names of such places in London?

Thanks,

Hi,

Perhaps they are referring to independent and private hostels which sometimes accommodate workers as well as students. Check out the following links

Hello
This is where i stayed when i came last year to do a short course in summer in london. It is called John Cass Hall. I truely enjoyed my stay and was the cheapest in that zone with very good transport facilities.

prob safe bet.without getting too contreversial i think if you go about houseshare you'l find that other sharers mite be prejudiced on the grounds of nationality, social bakcgrnd, ethinicity, religion etc etc. in student halls at uni this is never the case as all ppl just do what they can to get along - id assume the same at professional level.

Would highly recommend St Vincent's House in Notting Hill
