London Central English Language School offers a variety of accommodation options.




Residence Study Bedroom

Homestay

    Staying in an English home is one of the best ways to practise speaking English outside school and to experience the British way of life. All our hosts are carefully selected and monitored to ensure you are comfortable and satisfied. You can choose between breakfast and dinner (half board) or breakfast only and we can arrange single or twin rooms. It is also the lowest priced accommodation option.

    We also have a number of "Executive Homestays", selected on the basis of the high quality of the home and food, and the professional interests of the hosts.

    Owing to our central London location, homestay accommodation is usually 45-60 minutes travelling time from the School, but all accommodation is within easy reach of the School by public transport.

Single, per week
With breakfast: 99.00
Breakfast and dinner: 127.00

Student Residence

London Central English Language School has its own residence hall in the main school premises in Central London. You can live and study in the same building!
    Uniquely at London Central, we are able to offer students the opportunity to live "on campus" in our own student residence. The School residence has 14 twin rooms and 30 single rooms, and is located on the upper floors of the school building. Each room contains a solid pine desk and chair for study, a cupboard for storage and a TV, kettle and comfortable chair for relaxation. Rooms also have either a washbasin or en-suite bathroom, and coin-operated telephones are available on every floor. Meals are provided in the school's canteen and you can choose either breakfast only or half board (breakfast and dinner). Bed linen is provided and is changed every week, but students should bring their own soap and towels.

    All bookings are processed on a first come, first served basis. We recommend to book your room 2 to 3 months in advance (3 to 4 months for summer months)
