Bedrooms and bathrooms
Saint Anselm Hall is a historic hall located in Victoria Park with the original part of the building being built in 1907. The hall is divided into five blocks: Shuster, Manor, Summerfield, Dewar and a separate building, the lodge. Saint Anselm is one of our smaller halls with 130 students.
The hall offers spacious bedrooms with a single (190x90cm) or small double bed (190x120cm). Rooms include plenty of storage and a dedicated study area, including a desk and office chair. Bathrooms are shared but you'll have a washbasin in your room.
There are typically four showers, four toilets and four sinks shared between 15 bedrooms. These shared bathrooms are cleaned by our facilities team once a week.
