In a city like London, one of the world’s top destinations for international education, finding student accommodation that actually fits your lifestyle and schedule shouldn’t be this hard.
But let’s be real: most housing providers still stick to rigid 40+ week contracts, forcing students to commit to long stays they may not even need.
At Londonist DMC, we decided to change that.
Say hello to Flexible Student Stays.
From short 2-week bookings to year-long stays, we let you decide how long you want to live with us. Whether you’re coming for a summer course, a semester abroad, an internship, or a full academic year, we’ve got a flexible stay to match.
Why Flexibility Matters More Than Ever
The reality? Not every student follows the same timeline.
Some arrive mid-year. Some leave early for job placements. Others need a room while waiting for final offers, visa updates, or exam resits. Traditional housing contracts just don’t cut it anymore.
And with student accommodation demand now outpacing supply by over 450,000 beds across the UK (yes, really), you need a housing option that works around your plans, not the other way around.
That’s where we come in. Flexible stays are no longer just “nice to have.” They’re necessary.
What Is a Flexible Student Stay?
Let’s break it down.
With Londonist DMC, you can book student accommodation in London for anywhere between 2 and 52 weeks.
That’s right—two weeks.
Perfect if you’re:
And it’s all backed by our Londonist Promise: No UK guarantor needed. Price match available. Flexible payment plans. All bills included. Zero hidden fees.
