Location

Willen House is situated on Bath Street in the area of Islington and Clerkenwell - an ideal location for students studying both at the main City campus (Northampton Square) and at the Business School.

Living in Willen House means you're within easy walking distance of all City's teaching facilities and close to many trendy restaurants, cafes and bars. You're also close to the Barbican Centre, one of London's liveliest cultural venues. The Barbican offers galleries, a theatre, cinema screens and concert halls.

Whilst you're able to enjoy the culture and atmosphere of Islington, you're also only fifteen minutes away by tube from the West End and Covent Garden. The area is well served by bus routes, with a major bus interchange located near Angel tube station.

Terms and conditions and further information

Students who are offered accommodation at Willen House will sign an agreement with EC1 Residences and not with City, University of London and will therefore be bound by EC1 Residences' terms and conditions of residence.
