Cavendish Place sits just off Cambridge Street, tucked into the pocket of Manchester where the student population is at its thickest. It is operated by Host, holds Unipol accreditation, and picked up a Manchester Student Homes award for university approved accommodation in 2024/25. The building holds around 119 bedrooms across en-suite clusters of five or six, self-contained studios, and one bedroom flats, so it is small enough that reception staff learn your name and large enough that you are not living in a family house with three strangers.
