Waterfront location

All 115 rooms at The Rackhay are non en-suite rooms, meaning you’ll share your bathroom, kitchen and lounge area with flatmates. Away from your room you’ll find a large common room with pool and table tennis, as well as a Communal Study Space. Being part of the Riverside residence means you’ll have access to the social spaces and events at neighboring Favell House and Waverley House too.

Location

The Rackhay

The Rackhay is located in the centre of Bristol, just off the waterfront. Home exclusively to University of Bristol students, it’s just 10 minutes on foot from the University campus. Directly opposite the Rackhay is a convenience store and the bustling bars of Kings Street are right around the corner. Feeling peckish? The St Nicholas indoor market offers a fun dining experience, with everything from gyoza and falafel to wraps and speciality cakes to choose from, all made by independent traders.
