Student Accommodation in Norwich City Centre

From dining and drinking to shopping and sightseeing, there’s always loads to do when you live in student housing in Norwich city centre. So much so, in fact, that it really is no wonder that the city centre was the third most popular area on the UniHomes website during the 2026/27 letting season (behind North & West Earlham and the Golden Triangle).

Love indulging in some retail therapy? Norwich’s two shopping centres (Castle Quarter and Chantry Place) offer enough household names and high street brands to give you your shopping fix, including stores like Urban Outfitters, Zara, and Hollister. Norwich Lanes is the place to go for independent retailers, though, as this vibrant area is home to record stores, cafés, jewellers, and vintage stores galore.

Student accommodation in Norwich city centre is also around the corner from a myriad of restaurants, bars, clubs, and pubs, giving you endless opportunities when it comes to choosing how to spend your evenings after uni. Whether you fancy a sit-down meal or a busy night out, you won’t have far to travel when you live in the heart of Norwich – think about how much money you’ll save on Ubers!

With Norwich University of the Arts located in the middle of Norwich, student houses in Norwich city centre are also perfect for NUA students hoping to live close to campus.
