Imperial students can stay in Evelyn Gardens and Wilson House, with availability ranging from one week to the whole summer.

Summer Accommodation for Imperial Students
Experience a summer in London and take advantage of the location of our hall’s. Choose between Evelyn Gardens, nestled in the streets of Chelsea and Wilson House, a short walk from the Paddington Basin and Hyde Park.
Rooms can be booked in weekly blocks of between 1 to 12 weeks. Prices will vary depending on the length of your stay.
To be eligible for a place in halls over summer you must be enrolled as an Imperial student for the full duration of your stay. If you are a final year student at Imperial, you will not be eligible and you will need to arrange alternative accommodation within the private sector.
Please note, not all houses in Wilson House are available to book, therefore there are a limited number of bedspaces available for summer accommodation.
How to apply
Applications will open on Monday 28 April at 10.00 here.
Rooms are provided on a first-come-first-served basis and allocation of specific halls and rooms are at the discretion of the Student Accommodation Office (based on availability), therefore we recommend that you apply early.
