Podium
A student accommodation development of 178 units on the site of four substantial existing properties. Works started in April 2016 with the main contractor, HG Construction Ltd, and students moved in at the start of the academic year in September 2017.
Podium, just a few minutes walk from Royal Holloway’s campus, offers a choice of room types, all expertly designed to fit with the lifestyle and living requirements of today’s student.
Fitted with electronic gates, CCTV and 24/7 security, the development also offers residents peace and quiet from its substantial, mature landscaped gardens.
Every room benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, personal 100Mb wi-fi and private study area.
“I have inspected well over 5,000 student beds and I can truly say that this [Podium] is the nicest scheme I have ever come across.”
Dane Owen – fire consultant
“Podium sets the bar very high with exceptional location, comprehensive facilities and great design details – all to make sure the student’s stay is like being at home away from home.”
