The City Arcade – Modern Student Accommodation in the Heart of Exeter

With Exeter’s vibrant city centre right on your doorstep, The City Arcade gives you the perfect base to enjoy everything this cultural and historic student city has to offer. We take care of the practical bits so you can focus on studying, socialising and building an exciting future.

If you’re studying at the University of Exeter, this is the ideal home from home. The main campus is just one mile away, and St Luke’s Campus is within easy walking distance — giving you more time in the mornings and a smoother start to your day.

Built on the site of a former shopping arcade, The City Arcade has always been a lively, welcoming place. Every room includes a private en‑suite bathroom, a comfortable double bed and a dedicated study space, giving you a calm, comfortable environment to unwind in. 

The City Arcade has everything you need under one roof:

  • All bills included for complete peace of mind
  • On‑site maintenance available whenever you need it
  • Laundry facilities for everyday convenience
  • High‑speed Wi‑Fi ideal for studying, streaming and staying connected
  • Secure keycard access for safe, stress‑free living
  • Communal social spaces where you can relax and meet friends
  • Fully furnished bedrooms designed for comfort and productivity
  • Private en‑suite bathrooms for added convenience

If you’re looking for modern student accommodation in the heart of Exeter with excellent access to both University of Exeter campuses, it's the perfect place to call home.
