Overview

These two halls offer a mix of accommodation with 193 en suite and 326 standard bedrooms, including 4 rooms which have been fully adapted for wheelchair users.

Gilbert Murray Hall was founded in 1957. The Hall was based upon a number of large houses built at various times in the first quarter of the century and is near to the University's playing fields. These houses were substantially augmented with the opening, in 1965, of seven blocks of study bedrooms.

Stamford Hall comprises buildings designed in 1964 by Sir Denys Lasdun (a leading architect, responsible also for the Charles Wilson Building on the University's main site and many other major buildings including the National Theatre); four adjacent older houses and Bowder Court which opened in October 1992.

All bedrooms provide comfortable single accommodation, with writing desk, internet access, a welcome toiletries pack, and tea and coffee making facilities. A welcome leaflet is also provided detailing emergency contact numbers and useful information.

Gilbert Murray Stamford Hall is located on our 40 acre site, Oadby, complete with beautiful landscaped grounds and a stunning 16 acre botanic garden suitable for outdoor activities. Oadby is a delightfully picturesque area only 2 miles from the City Centre.

Term Time: Route 80 – St. Margarets bus station and Leicester train station to Oadby Halls of Residence via the City Campus.

All year round: Route 31 & 31A – Leicester train station to Oadby. The bus stops on the Leicester Road (about a 5-10 minute walk to the Halls of Residence).

Whilst public transport is recommended for ease, complimentary car parking is available. On arrival in Oadby, should you find that parking near Beaumont Hall is full, please use one of the other available cark parks and refrain from parking on public roads.

By Taxi

The University of Leicester is located on two principal sites. If you are traveling to your final destination by taxi you must specify the Halls of Residence in Oadby. If you only specify the University of Leicester, you will normally be taken to the city campus.

Upon Arrival

Check in time is from 2pm. If you are arriving after office hours (5pm) your keys can be collected from the night porter based at John Foster Hall. If you are arriving late evening we would kindly request your patience as the porter may be temporarily away from their desk attending to their rounds.

If you are planning to arrive before 2pm it may be possible to leave your bags with reception until your accommodation is ready.

Check out time is 9.30am

Guests are kindly asked to respect University staff and property and note that some students, tutors and sub-wardens may still be in residence within your hall.
