Student Accommodation in Inverness
Inverness isn’t home to a massive university in Scotland, but it does have a campus of the Highland and Islands University. You will also find the other spread around Scotland!
They are slightly different because you can choose which college you study at or if you want to do it online. Their aim is for them to be accessible to those who are in rural Scotland.
As an idea, here are all their campuses:

Private Student Accommodation in Inverness
Due to the university being one where you can pick your college and choose to study online if you wish, that makes it hard for anyone to set up their accommodation unless there is another university in the town or city.
I usually look at what private student accommodation there is, this is student accommodation that isn’t owned or managed by the university. However, because in Inverness there is only the one college for the University and you can choose which one to study at they don’t really have any private student accommodation.
All of the accommodation in managed and run by the university, which means that if you choose to study at Inverness then you are most likely going to be in university accommodation or halls.
Student Housing in Inverness
Again this is a similar situation when you are searching for student housing, nearly all the accommodation is owned by the university and managed by an external company.
If you have any questions about living in Inverness as a student, then the best place to go to is to the accommodation office.
Student Hotels in Inverness
However, what I have noticed is that there are a few hostels and hotels in Inverness aimed at students.
This might be because students need to go to a campus every once in a while and instead of paying for a full term to live there, they can stay in a room or en-suite for several nights.
If you are searching for student accommodation and you want to make sure that you find a good place to stay, here are some quick tips:
- Always view the property
- Make sure it is designed well and is functional
- Read the tenancy agreement
- Check the inventory
- Make sure the property is well maintained
- Check the quality of the beds, bathrooms and kitchens
