Introduction
Finding the right student accommodation in Bath is about more than choosing a room. Location, management, safety, transport links and the overall feel of the building all make a big difference to student life.
Piccadilly Place is part of Zest’s Bath student accommodation portfolio and offers a boutique alternative to larger purpose-built student accommodation. It is suitable for students who want the reassurance of professionally managed accommodation, while still enjoying the independence of living in one of the UK’s most attractive student cities.
Whether you are studying at the University of Bath or Bath Spa University, Piccadilly Place gives students a practical base from which to enjoy Bath, study comfortably and settle into city life.
Why choose Piccadilly Place?
Piccadilly Place is suited to students who want a smaller, more manageable accommodation setting. Rather than feeling like one of hundreds of students in a large building, residents can enjoy a more personal style of student living.
Key benefits include:
- Boutique student accommodation in Bath
- Professionally managed by Zest
- Suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students
- Well placed for city living and university transport routes
- A practical alternative to traditional shared houses
- Managed maintenance and clear communication
- Student-focused accommodation in a smaller setting

Boutique PBSA in Bath
Piccadilly Place is purpose-built student accommodation, often referred to as PBSA. This means it has been created specifically for student living, with student needs, tenancy structure and management in mind.
Unlike some larger PBSA developments, Piccadilly Place has a more boutique feel. This can make it particularly appealing to students who want managed accommodation but prefer a quieter, more independent living environment.
For parents, professionally managed PBSA can also provide reassurance. There are clear points of contact, established processes and a team responsible for managing the accommodation throughout the academic year.
Location
Piccadilly Place is located in Bath, giving students access to the city’s shops, cafés, restaurants, transport links and student amenities.
Bath is compact, but location still matters. Students should think carefully about how they will travel to university, where they want to spend their free time and how close they want to be to the city centre.
From Piccadilly Place, students can make the most of Bath’s historic setting, independent businesses, green spaces and transport connections.
Ideal for University of Bath and Bath Spa students
Piccadilly Place may suit students studying at either the University of Bath or Bath Spa University, depending on course location, timetable and preferred commute.
University of Bath students should check routes to the Claverton Down campus, while Bath Spa students should consider whether they need regular access to Newton Park, Locksbrook or both.
The right accommodation is not always the closest property on a map. A good student base should work for your weekly routine, including lectures, study time, social plans, shopping, transport and part-time work.

Piccadilly Place compared with a shared student house
Many Bath students choose shared houses, particularly in second or third year. Shared houses can be sociable and cost-effective, especially for groups of friends.
Piccadilly Place offers a different style of student living. It may suit students who want a more structured, professionally managed environment, clearer maintenance processes and a building designed around student accommodation.
A shared house may be right if you want a busy home with a group of friends. Piccadilly Place may be better if you want more independence, less household admin and a smaller managed accommodation setting.
