Press House

Discover the perfect blend of modern student living and excellent connectivity (just 2 minutes walk from Woolwich Elizabeth Line Station) at Press House, your gateway to an extraordinary experience in London.

Brand New for 2026, offering luxury en-suites and studios, including Affordable Rooms at a reduced rent (rooms to be reserved by eligible students; please see room description). Some of our rooms also boast beautiful views over the River Thames and are protected by our 24-hour security team. 

Alongside our already impressive range of onsite amenities, Press House will boast a new cinema room, private dining room, library and quiet study space from September 2026 as part of phase 2 of the development.

Sitting right on the edge of the Royal Arsenal Berkeley Group regeneration, this area has transformed into one of London’s most exciting riverside neighbourhoods. Complete with stylish cafés, artisan bakeries like GAIL’s, popular hangouts such as SALT and Dial Arch, and stunning open spaces along the River Thames. With cultural hotspots like the Punchdrunk Theatre and the Carlos Acosta International Dance Foundation Ballet School close by, you’ll never run out of things to explore.

Students studying at the University of Greenwich and the University of East London will love the quick and simple commute, and if you’re heading to UCL, you can reach campus in 40 minutes thanks to the Elizabeth Line. King's College London is also just a 40-minute journey via the Elizabeth and District Lines. Woolwich Station is just a 2-minute walk away, giving you fast connections across the city, including Elizabeth Line access to Queen Mary University (around 32 minutes) and UCL East (Stratford) in around 30 minutes. Goldsmiths, University of London, is also commutable, with a straightforward journey of around 40 minutes by direct bus or via Woolwich Arsenal Station, from which you can also reach the London College of Fashion.

From Woolwich, you’re connected to key London destinations like Canary Wharf (Home to the UCL School of Management) in 8 minutes, Tottenham Court Road (20 minutes), Chinatown (30 minutes), and Stratford (25 minutes via the DLR). You can even hop on the Uber Boat for a scenic ride along the Thames, or take to two wheels thanks to our secure bike storage space.

For journeys further afield, you are just 1 hour away from London Heathrow Airport, ensuring you're never far from a spring escape.
At Press House, you can choose from a range of room styles designed for every lifestyle and budget — from cosy, modern studios to sociable en-suite rooms, all benefiting from our all-inclusive utility bills* package. Whether you're all about independent living or want to meet new friends, there's a space that fits you perfectly.

Life here is built around balance. Hit your goals in our fully equipped gym, recharge in the yoga studio, or stay focused in our open study spaces and quiet private study rooms. When you're ready to switch off, head to the communal lounge to relax, challenge your friends to a game of pool or Mahjong, and catch up over good conversation. Fancy cooking something from home? The communal kitchen is the perfect spot to prepare your favourite meals. Or, step out onto the rooftop terrace, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the river below. Meanwhile, the on-site laundry room and post collection take care of the everyday essentials.

Press House isn't just accommodation; it's a community that provides the ideal launchpad for your studies and a place where you can enjoy London living to the fullest.
