Residences at UCL Agreeable accommodation in a friendly environment at affordable prices. This folder provides detailed

information on accommodation and other services that UCL Residences offer to Summer Schools and

Languages Schools, groups and individual travellers as well as conference organisers.

Introduction:

Each residence is listed, and there is

a summary of the services that each

residence offers.

Most of our residences are within walking

distance of the main College campus

located on Gower Street and all that

London has to offer the scholar, tourist

or conference delegate. The residences

vary considerably from converted early

Victorian Town Houses in Bloomsbury to

a modern purpose built residence. Whilst

some residences offer accommodation

on a bed only basis, others can provide

bed and breakfast accommodation with

the option of an evening meal.

Our residences are not hotels, but

we offer clean and comfortable

accommodation with bed linen and

a towel provided and changed on

a weekly basis. Most have pleasant

common rooms or grounds enabling

you to sit and relax after a hard day

studying, sightseeing or shopping and

the money that you save by staying in

one of our residences instead of a hotel

can be used to make the most of all this

wonderful city has to offer!

Residences at UCL were awarded the

“Hospitality Assured” kite mark in 2003,

the first University in London to achieve

this award, and we are dedicated to

improving and increasing our provision

of high standard accommodation for our

ever growing student and commercial

market.

We hope that the information given in

this folder will be of interest, and we

look forward to being of service to you

in the near future.

We are only too happy to discuss

your requirements, and there is a

list of contact numbers for each

residence page.

General group enquiries can be made

by calling 0207 529 8975 or by e-mailing

[email protected].

Camden Market Camden market is the fourth most popular visitor attraction in London captivating both tourists and Londoners

alike. It can take up to a few hours to explore the stalls selling crafts, bric-a-brac, books, clothing, jewellery, music

and much more. You also cannot fail to visit some of the many shops neighbouring the canal and the streets.

Description:

The canal was historically used for

trade, to transport goods to and from the

City. The canal itself was bordered by

warehouses, stables and other premises

necessary to the canal.

In the early 1970s the canal trade ceased

and a temporary market appeared in

the vacant area. Although initially only a

food market it quickly became popular,

rapidly flourished and grew.

World famous novelists such as Charles

Dickens, George Orwell and Mary

Shelley have lived in Camden Town and

described it in their literature, highlighting

London’s cultural diversity.

Nowadays several markets exist.

1. Camden Lock Market

This market is now occupying the

warehouses used during the canal trade.

It originally was a crafts market and is

still very much crafts focused but the

stalls are today offering a much wider

variety of items such as books,

clothing, etc.

2. Stables Market

The market is built in the former stables

and horse hospital necessary when the

canal was in use. A mixture of indoor

and outdoor stalls, it now is the centre

for home furniture and decorative items.

The other focus is on clothing and art

pieces for goths and other sub-cultures.

3. Canal Market

The Canal Market is accessible from

Chalk Farm Road. It is a general outdoor

market.

4. The Electric Ballroom

Just steps away from the entrance of

the underground station, the Electric

Ballroom is the first market you encounter

when arriving in Camden Town. The

items traded at this market range from

clubbing wear to records, jewellery

and accessories to designer items

and leather outfits.

5. Camden Market / Buck Street Market

This outdoor market is primarily focused

on clothing and fashion wear.

Camden Town and its markets offer the

passer-by a wide diversity of goods,

a large choice of exotic foods in a

multicultural environment.

If you want to change from the usual

museums and other tourist attractions,

stop by Camden Town to discover the

true heart of London.
