true student has been my home for the last six months. I have experienced the best student life and all of this is thanks to how lovely the staff is and how they always make you feel at home. In this residence you do not only get a place to sleep, you gain a new family.

EASY PEASY

Reserving your Swansea student accommodation has never been easier...

With no deposit, true-guarantee cancellation policy, and flexible payment plans, you can book your Wales university accommodation in full-confidence.

About your new city

Swansea is the gem of southwest Wales, combining coastal vibes with the vibrancy of city life. Think natural landscapes, sandy beaches, and rolling hills, as well as a thriving restaurant, bars and shopping scene. The balance of history, culture, nature, and ambition makes Swansea a great city to experience.

The city is famous for being nearby to the Gower Peninsula - the first area of the UK to be designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and just a 30-minute drive from our accommodation. The waterfront bars and restaurants of the Maritime Quarter and Swansea Beach are also around half an hour away by foot. Wherever you explore, you’ll be greeted by the Welsh charm.

Visiting home or having a day out? As well as having many scenic roads to tour by car, Swansea is connected to the rest of Wales - including Cardiff Airport - and beyond via the M4. Locations like London can also be reached directly from Swansea Train Station. For local travel, Swansea has a selection of bus and cycle routes to venture on.

FAQ

Your questions, answered

What is the difference between a studio and an apartment at true Swansea?

In a Studio, everything is yours - your private en-suite, comfy double bed, study area, and your very own kitchenette, all in one stylish, self-contained space.

Apartments offer a more social vibe! You’ll still have your own en-suite and bedroom, but you’ll share the kitchen and living space with a few flatmates - ideal for building friendships.
