Reviews of Goodenough College

Goodenough has been a great home to me the past year. It is centrally located which means you can walk everywhere (my UCL department is just two min away). I also love the range of the facilities which we have access to such as library, cafe, bar. Lastly, Goodenough is a vibrant international community. I have made friends from all over the world!

So happy to call it home. Fantastic place that cannot be found anywhere else! Made great friends and grew so much personally.

Had the pleasure of living here whilst completing my education. It was a very pleasant experience and very well located. Searching for accommodation in central London is quite difficult and tedious; while many places are disappointing, this place is certainly good enough.

I have lived there for a year as a postgraduate student. When investigating it, I looked at google reviews, so I thought I'd give back. There were some hesitations I saw on a couple. Honestly, they baffle me now. The facilities are excellent, especially in William Goodenough House where I stay. The community is warm and vibrant. The events are constant, varying from "Port Talks" on various subjects, to student concerts, to trips throughout England and even three a year to continental Europe (for those selected, there is an application process). I went to Venice on an opera trip. But that's a small point compared to the year round facilities and atmosphere. And location! Amazing place to be be, in the center of London, on a quiet beautiful square. Also, whoever was criticizing the wifi: never had a problem. Work great. Come!

I stayed here for two years 2016-2018. The College is extremely supportive and I was lucky enough in my first year to meet the Queen. As a musician, we had a few practise rooms. The pianos won't be as well-maintained compared to the ones at the conservatoires, which is expected. Musicians were also all very encouraged to host concerts. I really enjoyed my time here and it's sad to leave :'(. Come! : )

Having lived here for 3 years while pursuing my postgrad studies, I've come to see Goodenough as my home in London, and try to stay here every time I visit. A true home away from home, with recently refurbished rooms, a great community atmosphere and loads of things to do in the area. The rooms are decent too.

The best place in London for students :)

A beautiful events venue besides a postgraduate residence open to students from any university or college. An absolutely quite library with mainly fiction with visitor entry less than an hour.. Very receptive people.

Stayed there with family for 2 years. Family friendly, great international community and excellent activities. I did not have to dress formally for most activities, unlike what some reviewers said.

When I first walked in to the Goodenough College in 2019 as a postgraduate student, I would never imagine to create a real home out of it for lifetime. While I was six months in the college, Global Pandemic hit and most of us’s goals and aspirations were axed. During those challenging times, the key people at the management of the College, Caroline and Alan, along with the Board of Directors, had managed the 800 capacity building standing by students concerns and needs. This proved me a very important point that choosing Goodenough was a morally correct move while other options were available. As a foreigner in London, feeling wholeheartedly accepted by the College could be considered one of the significant gains and definitely adds on to the emotional well-being of the member. I would also indicate that College does the best to keep equality, diversity and strictly against to discrimination. Having said all of these; Goodenough College involves members dedicated to community work, thus meeting with likeminded people becomes so easy than any other place can offer. While spending two years at the college, I had an amazing opportunity to get to know and experience different cultures and traditions by creating friendships, thus unforgettable memories. I now have very tight friendships all around the globe, thanks to the Goodenough College.
